Thanks Ruben for your interesting post.  Treasure of the Four Crowns is
indeed a much better movie than Comin' at ya - both in terms of content and
the quality of the 3D.  "Comin' at ya" is such a good name for a 3D movie
though.  When I saw both of these movies back in 1995 I noticed that the 
lead actor was the same in both movies - this somewhat correlates with both 
movies being made by "almost" the same people.
My review of the 1995 festival is at:
