Completing nomination for 122.17.60.88, rationale is as follows: The film may not meet the criteria of WP:GNG, because it has not received significant coverage in reliable sources. Also, it does not seem to satisfy WP:NOTFILM#Other evidence of notability. I have no opinion. Hut 8.5 13:16, 22 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

~~Weak delete~~ Keep I'm really struggling to find any source for this film, which appears to be non-notable. I suspect there must be something in print from the time of release, but aside from a couple of things of uncertain length in Google Books snippet view, not a popular movie. Maybe newspaper libraries would show more, but the NY Times and LA Times have articles online from this period and I can't see anything in there. --Colapeninsula (talk) 13:27, 22 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I formerly voted delete, but others did better than me at finding sources. This appears to now meet WP:NOTFILM. Good work. --Colapeninsula (talk) 17:23, 22 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Weak keep. Whilst a low-key film, reviews do exist [1]. --Rob Sinden (talk) 15:52, 22 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, I included TV Guide in the article. Erik (talk | contribs) 15:59, 22 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: In addition to what I've added to the article, this appears to be a relatively substantial review, and this mentions LaPaglia and the use of makeup. Erik (talk | contribs) 15:53, 22 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per sufficient coverage from various reliable sources. Some are not readily available to cite (such as the makeup book), but that should not be a strike against notability. Erik (talk | contribs) 15:59, 22 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per WP:PROFESSIONAL, enough material from reliable sources to write a Reception section. I've added two book sources. Receiving critical commentary in a newspaper, two guides and three movie books should be enough to pass WP:GNG. Diego (talk) 16:06, 22 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per improvements since nomination. --SarekOfVulcan (talk) 16:40, 22 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per article inprovements by Erik Good job.. Schmidt, ^{MICHAEL Q.} 05:56, 23 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
