The bridge crew's uniforms range from loose-fitting gray tunics and trousers to blue-and-silver swimsuits, the latter worn by pretty young women. It appears that there are no passengers aboard the ship and that everybody we see has some function, but the ship's uniforms aren't very uniform. The grim look on his face suggests that he is not an engineer performing routine monitoring, and that whatever he's doing is not for the good of the ship.īefore we get any farther, you're probably wondering, what do humans look and dress like in the far future? Well, big permed hair and shoulder pads are quite popular (this movie was made in 1988), and they favor a strange assortment of clothing. Ominous music tells us that something more than complaints of boredom lie ahead, and we see a sinister-looking man sneaking through a tangle of metal structures and sticking a small metal box on what appears to be a fan but is probably meant to be something highly technical and vital to the ship's function. The current crew is 13 generations away from Earth, and the voiceover (that curse of B-movies!) tells us that there are a few crewmembers who have grown tired of being cooped up on the ship. The movie takes place on the Southern Sun, a spaceship which, as we are informed at the very beginning of the movie, is a generational starship that is carrying a group of Earthlings away from their overcrowded planet to a new uninhabited world. I apologize for the fuzzy-looking screencaps, the quality of the video wasn't the best. An MST3K-ified version and the original version have been posted on Youtube, so I'm off on another review. The movie for this review was suggested by Matt Y, and after he told me about it, I took a quick look at it to see if it's true MMT material. I finally got back from my Sweaters for Ferrets fundraising tour, and of course the first thing I wanted to do was to review a bad movie. It's Pam, back at long last with another review.
