'Space Fury' (1999) - Eli Necakov.

I would prefer to give the filmmakers responsible for the astronomically duff, 'Space Fury' the benefit of the doubt, hoping this pedestrian space odyssey was a deliberate attempt to celebrate the equally penurious, spit and sellotape exploitation cinema of, Ed. Wood Jr. and greatly beloved B-Movie Tzar, Roger Corman!!!??? Granted, my shaky hypothesis is somewhat questionable, but, beauty, or the diggable merits of a palpably shoddy movie are very much in the bleariest eye of the bountifully beer guzzling B-Movie beholder!!! 

What luridly propels, 'Space Fury' into the rarefied, giddy stratosphere of being a terrifically tittersome, 'so-bad-it's-good' Sci-schlockfest is the hilariously unbridled lunacy of, Michael ParĂ©'s fearlessly freakazoid performance as the cosmically kooky, Klaus Kinski crazy, space station sabotaging cosmonaut, Konrad!!!! With a plot that clearly fell out of a box of cheerios, Space Fury's dubious diorama of tawdry Radio Shack sets, Commodore 64 graphics, and turgid dialogue is only fitfully enlivened by Canadian composer, Donald Quan surprisingly decent, Tangerine Dreamed score. Frankly, it might really only be bargain bin batty, B-Movie buffoonery obsessing skells who will get a twisted kick out of the blissfully bungled, 'Space Fury', as many less tweaked Sci-fans could well find this an ignominious trip to Uranus!
