A warning to SciFi enthusiasts and ProfessorHat
A few months back there was a thread here about the worst movies ever made.
I pitched in by naming Italian produced "StarCrash" starring the delicious Caroline Munro and the undelicious David Hasslehoff.
Even the usually talented Christopher Plummer got roped into this Italio-Cheesefest.
They even paid an undisclosed sum to John Barry to do the score for this 70's cringe-o-thon.
There was at the time some light hearted banter about how absurd it would be if it ever came out on high definition BluRay.
Evidently, spured on by Uncle George's press release about the Star Wars franchise, the company behind StarCrash has decided in it's impotent wisdom to unleash the BlueRay version in all it's glory this November.
Now, better than ever before, you will be able to see spacecraft system monitors from Sony being used in the 25th Century command bridge, still sporting rotary VHF/UHF channel dials.
For the first time ever in DTS quality, hear The Commander issuing the "turn back the flow of time" command.
See Caroline as Stellar Star in a skimpy Bacofoil space bikini that's so tight even I couldn't breathe properly.
The release comes with an extra disc promising "a galaxy of extra features" as if the original film wasn't torture enough.
I have already pre-ordered my copy . . . . (I'll get my coat now)
A skimpy bacofoil space bikini you say?
Murder on the fillings...
That sounds infinitely more entertaining than the utter banality of the Star Wars prequels...
Unfortunately, the Amazon page is grossly misleading.
The trailer shows all the good (!) CGI effects and not the naff ones.
And it should read :
Q: "What Do Customers Ultimately Buy After Viewing This Item?"
A: "Therapy".
It really is that bad.
But the chance to oogle at Caroline Munro in HD is worth the price.
And hey - there's always The Hoff Meister for the ladieeeees . . . .
This the best news. Ever. ![]()
Looks great to me! ![]()

Sounds like we're getting awfully close to a new off-topic thread "Films that are so bad, they're good..." ![]()
