Title: 80s space film a la Flash Gordon Post by: John on August 04, 2008, 09:00:26 PM Howdy. I only remember very little of this film, which had an appeareance of an 80's flick (if not late 70's). There's the main good guy and his space crew, and some point they get captured and want to escape from the evil guy who's some cyborg part man part machine individual. (No, it's not Darth Vader).
The evil guy has a robotic suit with his face in view and tubes out, and some visible green liquid which I guess is his blood. At one point in the movie he gets the girl from the captured crew to have his way with her (brunette girl), and he activates his 'tool' by pulling a string, like some chainsaw kinda thing (I know...). Then the girl pulls out one of his tubes and as he's 'bleeding' she manages to escape and reunite the crew... They all escape. Rings a bell to anyone? Cheesy 80s space flick...

I think this is the scene you recall (skip ahead to about 1:45). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w18JNLMjyY8 Title: Re: 80s space film a la Flash Gordon Post by: Kester Pelagius on August 04, 2008, 11:59:11 PM OR it could be FLESH GORDON 2.
Title: Re: 80s space film a la Flash Gordon Post by: JPickettIII on August 05, 2008, 01:14:16 PM I believe the movie you are looking for is "Space Truckers" I remember this movie. I thought it was alright, but I don't remember if the bad guy was Christopher Llyod or not.
Things that make you go HMMMM. Later, John Title: Re: 80s space film a la Flash Gordon Post by: Gerry on August 27, 2008, 12:44:52 PM Naw, based on your description I think you're remembering SPACE HUNTER: ADVENTURES IN THE FORBIDDEN ZONE. The evil cyborg is played by Michael Ironside as Overdog:
