    Battle Beyond the Stars, you could say, is the final part in the Seven trilogy. Based on the Seven Samurai, which was later remade into The magnificent Seven, it seems fitting to bring the story into the future somewhat. It's not nearly as good as the two previous films but it's ...( read more)certainly spectacular. The seven are basically a bizarre and brilliant mix of aliens battling against one big nasty alien. Brilliant! Sure, it's a little dated but I?m extremely fond of it. It's a Roger Corman classic for fuck sake! I'd watch this over Star Wars any day (and as a child, I did!)

    An oatmeal-flavored science fiction epic with Richard Thomas (John-Boy Walton) gathering allies from all over the galaxy to defend his planet from a sick-twisted dark lord. It's an innocent story which has a nice selection of aliens and characters. Highlights are Robert Vaughn's ...( read more)space criminal, George Peppard's space cowboy, the white aliens who are mentally connected, the Valkerie-like warrior woman and her pet, the Android-maker and his daughter, plus some little guys. It's a whole lot of cheesy fun, and not too cheaply made in the wake of Star-Wars-imitators. Fun to watch with pals.

    Cheap and cheerful remake of The Magnificent Seven (Robert Vaughn even reprises his role) in space. Cheesy effects and straight to video stars, but it's amusingly kitsch. And the valkyrie certainly made an impression on this particular pubescent boy...

    Cheesy but boring sci-fi adventure. Pity because it has a great B-movie cast w/ John Saxon, George Peppard and Robert Vaughn and they are all pretty much wasted...Richard Thomas will always be John-Boy

    Cheesy, but kind of fun sci-fi flick.

    Sci-fi Seven Samurai is fun.
