This American one sheet for Starcrash, Luigi Cozzi’s 1978 Star Wars ‘homage’, has excellent artwork by John Solie, featuring Caroline Munro as the superbly monikered Stella Star. Critically panned on release, it has since gained cult status thanks to the camp script and infamous special effects. It was recently re-released on blu-ray under the ‘Roger Corman Cult Classics’ series. The film also features a score by the late John Barry – I like this bit of trivia on IMDb.
Witness David Hasselhoff battling space droids with a ‘lightsword’ on YouTube.
Check out the original trailer on YouTube (edited by the great Joe Dante) and bear witness to the quality of the effects.
Director Eli Roth has recorded a commentary to the trailer on the Trailer From Hell site.
