About five years ago, my friend and I went to the video rental store to get something to watch. My friend saw Space Truckers on the shelf, and so we got it. Once we got home and started watching it, we realized what an absolute piece of crap it was! A beer can floating in space? A guy taking a dump in a toilet? A guy with a mechanical dick who tries to arouse a women by saying, "Whizz, whizz!"? WTF!!! The dumbest, stupidest, most retarded, horribly throne together piece of trash my eyes have ever been exposed to. My friend and I still refer to it as THE worst movie we have ever seen. Only one other movie has come close to its crappiness (and that would be the stupid Jackie Chan flick, "The Medalion"). If you eyes ever see this piece of junk on the shelf at your video store, proceed to do the following: 1. Take it off the shelf and throw it to the ground. 2. Stomp on it for at least 30 seconds. 3. Proceed to set it on fire in a contained facility (bathroom stall). 4. Lastly, take it to your local hazardous waste management facility immediately so that it may be properly dealt with.STAY AWAY FROM "SPACE TRUCKERS"!!!!!!!!

Like Stuart Gordon's other venture into science fiction territory, the underrated and ill-fated ROBOT JOX, this is a nifty little film that was plagued by production difficulties and failed to find a theatrical distributor, which is a shame because its quite an enjoyable viewing experience. Everyone in the cast has fun in this , with Dennis Hopper delivering some unexpected and funny bits of dialog, Debi Mazar and Stephen Dorff providing reliable 2nd banana support and Charles Dance having the time of his life with his horny half-metal madman. This Excellent DVD offers a chance to see this little sleeper in a great looking print with a fascinating and funny commentary by the Director. This film delivers exactly what its titles proclaims.

I love a good movie (or bad in this case) that knows it sucks, and revels in that fact by going to the extremes of B-cheesieness.Of course if you go in expecting a space opera and end up with a rodeo, you're going to be upset. Don't set any expectations and just have fun with this film.

What do you get when you throw Convoy, Heavy Metal, Three Stooges in Outer Space with a dash of Anime sensability into a cosmic blender, hit puret, then pour into a warm cup of Dennis Hopper? Space Truckers! A wacky sci-fi adventure that dials the cheese meter to just the right frequency to keep us laughing while we ogle at the impressive hand crafted quality of the special effects. The script is outrageous as it equally pokes fun at, while embracing, such sci fi conventions as the crusty space hauler with a heart of gold, the plucky space waitress with a heart of gold, the rookie space jockey with a heart of gold and the dread space pirate with the cybernetic genitalia. The cyber-what? The special effects are great and the designs are all over the map. The Killer Androids look like they were stolen from some other, better movie. Watching this will remind you of so many sci-fi classics and some not so classic flicks. along with the films mentioned above I saw echoes of Time Bandits, Aliens, Barbarella, Predator, Battle Beyond the Stars, and Citizen Kane(just kidding)
