StarCrash

Product Description

Stella Star and her sidekick Akton are a pair of small-time smugglers, always on the run from the galactic police. After outwitting the authorities yet again, they discover the lone survivor of a secret mission to destroy the evil Count Zartharn's latest weapon. Both are captured and sentenced to prison, but escape and meet the Emperor - who deems them as resourceful enough to both destroy the Count's weapon, and to find the his missing son. Can Stella and Akton stop Count Zartharn, before all hope for intergalactic peace is forever lost? Italy's answer to the science fiction craze brought on by the original Star Wars, StarCrash is campy good fun, with bright gaudy colors, cheesy acting and lots of leather!

Want it on DVD? It's been re released as "Female Space Invaders".......2005-08-26

I saw this Italian movie on video in the early 1980's and instantly fell in love with it's storyline, characters and with it's use of David Hasselhoff as one of it's main characters!

The story is all about Stella Star, a sexy space suit wearing woman who goes around with her sidekick on outlaw type adventures (think of her as a female han solo). On one particular escape, she loses her partner and is captured by the emperor of the universe, who then hires her to find his son and to destroy an evil man who has plans to destroy the rest of the universe.

The fun parts of the movie include a smack talking robot sheriff who is later teamed up with Stella Star, a bunch of action scenes with David Hasselhof, and of course the dramatic Star Crash at the end.

This is not a well acted movie, and the special effects are about as good as one can expect from a small budget foreign movie from the 1970's (in other words, they are pretty awful). Still, for science fiction fans, fans of David Haselhoff, and for those who have a thing for women in bikinis in space movies, this movie has something for you.

Before I forget. This movie has been rereleased on DVD as "Female Space Invaders". As of this writing, Amazon does keep the title in stock. So yes my friends, Stella Star is now available on DVD!
