 Yes, every major actor ought to have a couple of lo-fi, slow burner, cult type films in their resume like this.

This was one of those that I grew up seeing every now and then parked on one of the lesser stations, late at night, and which totally beguiled me, and really informed, and formed by taste in movies...

... Very much moviedrome fodder!

(For those in the UK, who may remember that :)

Can't believe some of the stuff my parents let me watch at that age.

(It's a wonder I'm not completely screwed up! (Twitch, twitch.... Shudder.... Twitch... "Arse!"... Twitch :)

I think it's movies like this that make me really appreciate others of more modern vintage like Drive, You were never really here, and the works of Michael Mann...

... All about the atmosphere and mood.

(Also why I prefer to watch movies on my phone now, as opposed to all that home cinema lark... More intimate, personal, and immersive, like when all I used to have was a small 14" colour TV by my bed, which would illuminate my room as the only source of light, and draw me in, in a way all that modern CGI 3D pizzazz never could)

I agree criminally underrated as a Sci-Fi, an action film or as a Sean Connery film. I only found out about it after someone recommended me it. It didn't do big business at the box office, but made profit about 1 million profit.

I saw it as being Dirty Harry in space.

 Rated 8/10
Essentially, a western set in space, with Sean Connery's Sherriff type, thrust into the middle of a conspiracy / intrigue to do with the criminal activities of a shady corporation.

He's basically Wyatt Earp, come to bring a little law to this outpost, but unusually (and refreshingly) for Connery, while he is the standard tough guy, he is not without a sense of vulnerability here.

...And it's a film essentially brought to you by the majority of the production team that made Alien, and it carries much of that look, feel, vibe of deep space horror created there.

Very underrated in my book.
