I've seen this about forty times and I get why people think it's trash. But, to me, it's utterly charming 80s style trash and a must for all fans of cheapo, B-movie sci-fi romps that blatantly rip off Star Wars and just about every other successful space actioner. I think most folks thought this would be soft-core porn set in space, like
Flesh Gordon. It's not (other than one very brief moment that is anything but erotic). Instead, it's silly and intriguing much in the manner of
Buckaroo Banzai. Brilliant!
