Starcrash (1978)

Posted in 1978

A pair of smugglers manage to pick up a castaway while running from the authorities, who turns out to be the only survivor from a secret mission to destroy a mysterious superweapon designed by the evil Count Zartham. The smugglers are soon recruited by the Emperor to complete the mission, as well as to rescue the Emperor’s son, who has gone missing.
Caroline Munro definitely set the mood in her almost-not-there “space-kini” and high-heeled boots, with Marjoe Gortner pulling backup as 2nd banana. Cheesy special FX, a painfully earnest performance by Christopher Plummer (you can practically see him wondering if his paycheck will clear the bank when he’s finished), and a surprisingly good score ( hey, it’s John Barry, what did you expect?)make this a pleasant surprise, as long as you’re not expecting anything on par with E.E. “Doc” Smith, etc. A small note: I got to meet Ms. Munro at an SF convention back in ‘82, and I totally agree with Harlan Ellison…she was so gorgeous in person that “they had to ugly her down, so that the cameras wouldn’t melt during filming!”….Though I forgot to ask her if it was true that only copy of the shooting script had been stolen by members of Italy’s Red Brigade terrorists and held for ransom! Ah, rumors…anyway, try and catch it for free and you won’t feel cheated.
