| Mania.comRob VauxThe producers in their infinite wisdom decided to release it five days before the single most anticipated science fiction epic of all time. |
| User ReviewMaster KThe rose-tinted spectacles are glued to my face for this one and its spirit of adventure. |
| User ReviewJanet Zahra WThat dude shoulda made more movies. they shoulda made a sequal. I remember seeing this in the movie theater in 3D. Loved it. Still fun to watch, good dialogue. Outdated effects. Needs to be remade!!!! |
| User ReviewJeffA very cool science fiction film from 1983. A great story and a great cast for this film. Peter Strauss, Molly Ringwald, Ernie Hudson and Michael Irinside are so great in this film. The film starts out where a cruise spaceship enters an ion storm and an escape pod with 3 ladies land on the plagued planet Terra XI. Wolff, a bounty hunter goes to Terra XI to rescue the girls. While on Terra Xi, he meets Niki, a girl who helps trck him to the Zone, where a fortress called the Graveyard is the lair of the ruler of Terra XI, a cyborg named Overdog. Overdog and his main henchmen, called the Chemist, are responsible for all the mutants and plagues that happened on Terra XI. Wolff and Niki encounter Washington, who also is after the girls. A very cool film, I saw this film out in the theatre in 1983, which was shwn in 3-D. |
| User ReviewJoey Cchild hood fav, took me 15 yrz to find this movies name and watch it again... wow huh!? |
| User ReviewLisa SI think this is the only adventure movie Ringwald has been in, I don't know why she didn't do more, this movie was really enjoyable, and she was great in it. |
| User ReviewClay BIf you're a big fan of either Molly Ringwald or 80s sci-fi movies in general, I highly recommend this movie. I loved it, it has a good story, good actors, and it's fun. Of course it isn't one of the best sci-fi movies of the 80s, but I love it anyway. |
| User ReviewRuby MThis movies is truly all 80's action....I liked it...I was young when I saw it so it amazed me for a moment or too................... |
| User ReviewChase HSure it's not Star Wars but it's still a rad adventure. It's kinda like a mad max,space opera. It's a lower budget blast, so don't judge it too harsh just enjoy it. |
| User ReviewMaryJo Bthis reminded me of mad max thunder dome in alot of ways I liked that movie too |
