A gaping hole in my education!



Not only have I never seen this, I've never even heard of it!

Why have I never even heard of this film? I thought I knew all the ridiculous sci fi films from the 70's. I can't believe one as silly as this got by me. Too bad I didn't see it when I was a boy. I would have loved it no doubt. Now I'll just have to regard it with jaded amusement instead... not quite so satisfying.

Odd how its said to be release the year before Star Wars, and apparently features a hero with a laser sword and a super weapon, the size of a planet... making it all the more stranger that I've never heard of it.

And it stars David Hasselhoff!

I just checked IMDB. Star Crash came out a year after Star Wars, not before.
