    My oldest son and I watched this right after Rebel Moon, it was a spectacular nostalgia trip for me and a hilarious into to 80s schlock Sci fi, complete with rhe buxom heroine that apparently was deeply cut during the TV airing because I really don’t remember super cleavage saving the day.

    We both fell out laughing when her “spacesuit” made its appearance.
