Review of Dark Star (1974)

By Sonya W (148) on 19 Jun 2008

Not quite funny enough to be a comedy and not quite serious enough to be anything else…

Review of Dark Star (1974)

By Paul T (570) on 16 Jun 2008

Showing it's age, but definately worth wasting 90 minutes to watch…

Review of Dark Star (1974)

By Casey T (138) on 13 Jun 2008

Campy to a fault, this film tries to merge the humor of Dr. Strangelove and MASH into a sci-comedy…

Review of Dark Star (1974)

By Eve F (51) on 09 Jun 2008

I feckin' love this film, it's the space where bad and good meet and get even better. Nuclear bombs with an existential crisis…

Review of Dark Star (1974)

By Wendy B (205) on 04 Jun 2008

Interesting to see the start of a film-maker's career…

Review of Dark Star (1974)

By Clive T (7) on 02 Jun 2008

Great film, you have got to see it. Classic hippies in space…

Review of Dark Star (1974)

By Carl W (287) on 01 Jun 2008

Very silly spoof scifi, with some surprisingly good acting. Worth watching for the Alien in the lift shaft. And various other bits…

Review of Dark Star (1974)

By Hernan S (9) on 30 May 2008

Puta que final mas increible, que pelicula mas grande, viva el cine independiente y las bombas nihilistas…

Review of Dark Star (1974)

By Will H (458) on 23 May 2008

Fantastic film, love the alien Ball, and Bomb number 20, classic film…

Review of Dark Star (1974)

By Jonathon M (103) on 19 May 2008

Wow. I think John Carpenter just broke my mind open with the sheer power of awesome…

Review of Dark Star (1974)

By Dave C (1,370) on 18 May 2008

This (John Carpenter's feature debut) is an hilarious and wonderful sci-fi comedy which affectionately derides the profound pomposity of 2001…

Review of Dark Star (1974)

By Dave M (1,479) on 09 May 2008

Wonderful off-beat comedy that ambles along at it's own pace…

Review of Dark Star (1974)

By Russ S (39) on 07 May 2008

A low-budget, grungy, and surprisingly subversive answer to 2001, wherein human nature--all right, well, laziness and distractability--dictates…

Review of Dark Star (1974)

By Drew H (882) on 27 Apr 2008

Ignore the ropey effects, this movie is sooooooooooooooooo funny…

Ignore the ropey effects, this movie is sooooooooooooooooo funny…

Review of Dark Star (1974)

By Matt R (1,999) on 22 Apr 2008

Anyone who does not laugh is not human! this was hillarious, and to say it was made as a student film with no funding I am amazed…

Review of Dark Star (1974)

By Jerome M (188) on 13 Apr 2008

A very odd SCIFI comedy. Dan O'Bannon would later tweak the script (ie. make it more serious) and sell it as Alien…

Review of Dark Star (1974)

By Charles G (399) on 08 Apr 2008

Hehehe,cheezy space nonsense but a true classic cheaply made…

Review of Dark Star (1974)

By William M (1,438) on 04 Apr 2008

This is my new favorite movie. Probably the most I've laughed in a theatre since that poop scene in Me You and Everyone We Know…
