    Um......freaky stuff. I'm still not really sure what happened....

    So there is this guy...who likes animals and his family died so he lived on an island for 4 years with the animals....and that makes him weird with people....but he's in love with this lady...who he's known for ...( read more)2 years.....but he...doesn't know how to not be alone.......so that makes him act werid.....but wait! There's more....near the end it's revealed that he isn't exactly....smart? Knda simple actually.

    I don't care. Rutger Hauer is hot and he was very nice to look at in the film. Plus, the other characters were pretty interesing as was the oddballed script.
