The force is with you in this hilarious space oddity from comic genius Mel Brooks that'll send you into hyperspace with fits of laughter! Lampooning everything from Star Wars and Alien to Star Trek and Planet Of The Apes, this "uproarious salute to science fiction" (The Hollywood Reporter) is a "four-star" (USA Today) comedy that scores "eight trillion on the laugh-meter!" (Gene Shallit, NBC-TV).
The fearless -- and clueless -- Lone Starr (Bill Pullman) and his half man/half dog sidekick Barf (John Candy) race against time to free Princess Vespa (Daphne Zuniga) from the evil clutches of Dark Helmet (Rick Moranis). Along the way, they confront gooey gangster Pizza the Hutt (voice of Dom DeLuise), sassy robot Dot Matrix (voice of Joan Rivers) and wise little imp Yogurt (Brooks), who teaches them the mystical power of "The Schwartz" in order to bring peace -- and merchandising rights -- to the entire galaxy! |
