I'm not sure I'd use the word "glorious"...

Has anyone checked out the recently rediscovered Soviet made-for-TV version of LotR? Here's one review:
The long-lost Lord of the Rings adaptation from Soviet Russia is a glorious fever dream
You can find it on YouTube under the title Khraniteli (no subtitles, BTW). Being a fan of the Trilogy and course curious, I had a look, and found it vapid and unwatchable. YMMV.
Part 1, 50:02
Part 2, 1:04:30
