It is displaced further into the unknown by two space warps and into range of the volcanic planet Psycho...( read more  read more... )n, where the crew of Moonbase Alpha hope to obtain a mineral needed for their survival. But they are lured into a trap by Mentor of Psychon, who wants to drain their souls into a machine for energy needed to transform Psychon back to the paradise it once was. Mentor's daughter, Maya, who has the ability of personal molecular transformation, realizes how fanatical her father has become and helps the Alphans to stop her father. But in the struggle, Mentor's machine's power is released, triggering a series of explosions that cause cataclysm on Psychon and fevered distress in grief-stricken Maya. In the second part Koenig and Tony explore an alien ship while the moon passes through a space warp, leaving the astronauts stranded. Meanwhile, Maya is undergoing some strange disease that causes her to transform into a variety of berserker-like forms, including her deceased father Mentor.

    Ridiculous B-Movie antics. A princess turns into kind of a few monters while on a ship.
    Saw the MST3K version of this that made it border on genius.

    Hacked together version of 2 episodes from the 2nd season of Space 1999. This was where the rot started for the series with a lot of the original cast ditched for more special effects and monsters. The story finds the Alphans coming across the mad ruler Mentor and his shape shift...( read more)ing daughter Maya.

    this and UFO are my fave 70s TV serial.
    Spazio 1999 (in italian) it was a RAI/ITC co-production and it's still very popular here. Both 2 seasons are on sale as collector's edition de-luxe box set and have some gadgets too. The best season it's the first anyway (starring B.Mor...( read more)se as Scientist and best friend of Koenig). The plot is fascinating. Alpha Base has 400 ppl when the moon left the earth's orbit. A neverending trip, a continous adventure and meetings with strange creatures (some monsters too). The earthlings (o Moonians...) needing to find a new planet where to live, a new Earth but everytime there are soo many troubles..

    I never purchased italian dvd of this spin-off because i know that 's a mix of 2 episodes of 2nd season, starring Catherine Schell ( a mutant princess). Average rating of 2nd season it's my rating for this one.
    Sci-Fi fans, try to find boxes of complete serie. They're good.


    Ps: at last, after 48 episodes, there will be the happy end, hurrah!
