Mission Stardust Review
Review of Mission Stardust (1967) by screenqueeen: 👍 3/5
Perfectly scratches that in-between itch for me with its '60s Italian visual style and music/sound effects and its familiar '50s type science fiction plot. It's just that the plot gets more wacky as you go along.
Its 1st problem: advanced humanoids run into Earth humans on the moon during a secret extraction mission that gets forgotten about almost instantly.
Its 2nd problem: These 'aliens,' who have never encountered strong diseases before, have become instantaneously ill with a blood disease when they land on the moon. I guess humanity really is a grimy, dirty species.
Its 3rd problem: These 'aliens have never learned nor attempted to perform a blood transfusion before, yet they have faster than light space travel technology and teleportation devices that are basically straight out of Star Trek.
That being said, it's still a fun little ride and worth it to see a bad guy get jettisoned from a spaceship and hilariously float away in the void, rippling pantaloons and all.
