'A Guru Comes' is a quirky little TV movie that captures the oddball essence of the late '70s and early '80s. You know, that era where every other person was starting a new religious movement. The film revolves around this failed opera singer - a fascinating character study, really. The pacing is a bit erratic, but it suits the satirical tone perfectly. The performances, particularly from the lead, really sell the absurdity of the situation. The practical effects are minimal, but they don't distract from the central narrative. It's this strange mix of comedy and critique that makes it stand out, poking fun at a culture that was both searching for meaning and a bit lost. Definitely one for collectors who appreciate the oddities of television cinema.
