Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaChristopher Plummer admitted that he did the film so he could visit Italy for free. In an interview he said "Give me Rome any day. I'll do porno in Rome, as long as I can get to Rome. Getting to Rome was the greatest thing that happened in that for me."
- GoofsWhen the characters reach the ice planet, they are told the temperature drops thousands of degrees once the sun sets. Unless the planet's surface temperature is literally thousands of degrees, which even Mercury isn't, the most it can drop would be to absolute zero (the temperature at which a thermodynamic system has the lowest energy): - 273 degrees Celsius (-273.15 °C or -459.67 °F).
- Quotes
The Emperor: You know, my son, I wouldn't be Emperor of the Galaxy if I didn't have some powers at my disposal. Imperial Battleship, halt the flow of time!

Featured review
It's awful all right - in a hilarious way! This movie is awful in almost every category - special effects, sound, costumes, set, acting and the script - but if you like good cheese, if you can embrace the spirit of Ed Wood and others like him, then you'll LOVE this campy sci-fi disaster. Marjoe Gortner gives one of the truly worst performances I have evr seen - he either is phoning it in or over-acting like crazy - I swear, watch in the beginning - he almost doesnt blink for over ten minutes. Creepy. And for all of those who saw this movie as young lads - I can see why Ms. Munro wouldmake such an impression on you. Woo-wee!! That is some hot leather space bikini they have her in. She was gorgeous and all but my god, some of the "fight" scenes she's in are unintentionally hilarious. Good silly fun!!!
