When I was 10 I loved this film. It's a bit like Kickboxer meets Star trek meets Rocky. I managed to get a copy a few years back now and watched it again with a few friends.
To say it was weird was an understatement. It's actually rather funny at how bad the acting and effects are. i remember it being really exciting and packed with action. Watching it now I realised it was slow with little action and what action there was was just actually very funny.
To be honest they could do a remake which if done properly could be really good.
If you like sci-fi 'B' movies then this is the one for you.
Good old 80/90's fun!
