Overview

In the not too distant future, where by far the most precious commodity in the galaxy is water.

I have not watched this film since…late 80s maybe?
I’m amazed at how much fun it still is! I absolutely love the “space-pirate” aesthetic, complete with sabers and eye patches, and I am amazed at some of the cast members! Angelica Huston and Ron Perlman?!
