War of the Planets

Actors: John Richardson, Yanti Somer, Walter Maestosim, Massimo De Cecco, Massimo Bonetti,  Aldo Canti, Eleonora King as Oko 
Rating: 0 out of 10, The latest in my journey through 100 bad sci fi films is an obviously and very poorly executed Italian rip off of 2001 a Space Odyssey and Star Wars. There’s a sledgehammer approach to satirizing man’s dependence on technology as a rogue spaceship captain wanders the edges of known space chasing down strange radio signals. The only thing truly memorable were the spaceship crew’s uniforms, especially the female ones (the Italians have a well-deserved reputation in that department as well as their ability to properly fill them). The skin tight uniforms are topped off with some headgear weird enough to be distracting in their own right. This is not worth watching except for the unintentional comedy quotient; oh, and shipmate Oko, the ablest of filled uniforms.

MVP: Eleonora King as Oko. duh
