American action, sci-fi, and horror trash from the 80s

Proper crap...but Melanie Griffith with red hair....so it gets by

This was one of my faves, The Magnificent Seven in space....featuring Robert Vaughn who was in the Magnificent Seven...also George Peppard...Johnboy from the waltons, John Saxon...

Oh I loved this. Made flip book recreations of the battles in the corners of the thicker books my parents owned. Loved the music too. Watched it again recently, and it was a bit of a let down. Still, a great film.

I tried watching it - it's based on a famous to sci-fi fans book of the same name (which is quite good, IIRC) - but found it unwatchable.

Poor old Dominique Sanda. From Il Conformista to this in less than a decade.

Not sure I would watch it with any serious intention of finding it much cop...more as a genre piece.

It was SLOW and BORING.

It inspired Pat Mills to write the first Judge Dredd epic 'The Cursed Earth'
