Critical response
This movie was wholly panned by critics and moviegoers alike and has never been released on home video in any medium, but a high-definition video master exists and has been broadcast on Universal HD.
Moment by Moment remains a "camp classic", with a reputation sufficient to have prompted Mystery Science Theater 3000 producers to try (unsuccessfully) to obtain the rights necessary to broadcast it and mock it on their show.[2] The film grossed $10,963,824 in the United States.[3]
Other
Despite the film's poor reputation, its title song was a considerable hit for singer Yvonne Elliman in 1979.
