We love Tandra Quinn!!!rmoore080 02/01/2007 
  If you love B-movies (C-movies?), MESA is a must-see! The highlight of the movie is Tandra Quinn, absolutely one of the most beautiful women (IMO) to appear on screen. You have GOT to see her spider-dance (elbows hiked above her head, and two fingers of each hand rhythmically stabbing in front of her face). Absolutely gorgeous woman.

The plot of the movie is delightfully meaningless, and the movie builds up and climaxes in about 20 seconds. Oh, and watch carefully for the death of Wu - he dies about four seconds after he turns away from a conversation with Dr Arranya - I had to rewind it to watch it - it came out of nowhere.

Harmon Stevens does a great job, too.
