Title: Absolute massacre, the revenge of the baldies
Review: I read this book just a year or so before the movie came out. Thought it was one of the best sci-fi books ever written (still think so nearly 3 decades later). As you can imagine could not wait to watch the movie. Still remember the dead shock of betrayal that lasted that whole evening and then some.Talk of butchery. Dont think the makers actually ever read the book or understood what Frank Herbert had created. From a thoroughly woody Paul who goes through the whole movie, including many desert and fight scenes, without a strand of long hair out of place to awful looking baldies that were the Bene Gesserit to rain in the desert at the end - that was sacrilige.My advice, dont bother. Watch the mini series from 2000 instead or better still, just read the book.
