[Penguicon-Concom] Programming Meeting Scheduled

Fri Jan 25 02:23:08 GMT 2008

Gini,

If you're interested in suggestions for a good (in some senses of the word)
movie to MST3K this year, I've got a great one for you.  I've also got two
copies of it on videotape.  That classic 1970 Science Fiction film "Moon
Zero Two"!  Check out the IMDB listing at:

http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0064691/

It gets only a 3.0 of 10.0 rating from IMDB, despite manfully combining
elements of a Crime movie, a bad Sci Fi flic, a Western, and a Detective
story into one unintelligible mush.  It's got Lunar Go-Go girls!  All
spaceships look like Lunar Modules!  Great bar fights in low gravity!  And
the origin of the now classic "purple haired lunar women" look!

You know that point where bad passes through awful and gets to sublime?
This movie doesn't make that point.

What more could you want?

Steve Gutterman
