Yes - both in execution _and_ design. They owe more to pulp SF book covers of the time than they do to rival SF movies. Things sometimes have an organic look rather than a strictly mechanical one.

He's always reliable as a villain, and the more over the top the character, the better he plays him. I saw an interview once where he said he would rather play the bad guy because you have so much latitude for performance. If you play the hero, you are constrained by the way that the audience expects a good guy to behave, but as a vilain, you have an open invitation to be as insane as you you like :)

@travisshallenberger9486 4 жыл бұрын

I remember this movie fondly. It was cheesy as hell, but you could tell that a lot of heart went into it. Ringwald's character was ACTUALLY what they intended, a spunky yet endearing character, instead of just an annoying stupid kid, as so often happens. The ol' adventure trope of heroes drifting from crazy encounter to crazy encounter until they reach the bad guy was done well here. I need to watch this one again. (Also, the dig at Fallout '76 was pretty damn funny!)

Even over 30 years later so much of its imagery sticks in the mind, from Wolff's ship, to his awesome car, to the warrior women raising out of the water and on to Overdog's superb design and best of all, Chalmer's nightdress. The movie was made to enjoy. If you get the chance, watch it is a double feature with Cherry 2000 and enjoy the very best of cheesy, fun scifi.
