    • Quotes

      Alex: It's time we get to bed, Captain.

      Benson: Yes, you have a great body. May I use it?

      Alex: I'm with the major.

      Benson: For his personal consumption only?

      Alex: Yes.

      Benson: That's penally unsocial on Earth, you know that?

      Alex: Well, it's not here. Enjoy your blues.

    • Alternate versions
      A scene of Adam and Alex taking a recreational blues pill was cut from the original UK cinema version in order for the film to receive an 'A' (PG) certificate. The scene was restored for the later 15-rated video version.

    5/10
    Part Alien, part Star Wars, and a little Star Trek thrown in as well.
    This movie is about a couple that lives on this outpost in space. They are lovers and their world is carefree and simple. That is until a criminal comes and builds a robot that goes insane. The problem with this movie is that there just isn't enough cast here to make this movie as cool as it should have been. The robot needed people to kill, but there were only three people around so it didn't really get to flex its muscle. On the plus side Kirk Douglas is good, and so is Harvey Kietal as the criminal. Fawcett isn't great, but she does ok. The plot should have included more though as a lot of this movie goes unexplained, like Kietal's character motivations, or why didn't anyone warn Kirk and Farrah that a criminal was out there. In the end this movie has its moments, but tends to become a bit tedious.
