'''Space Mutiny''' is a [[1988]] [[action movie|action]]/[[sci-fi]] [[film]] about a [[mutiny]] aboard the [[spaceship]] known as the ''Southern Sun''. The movie was later lampooned on an episode of ''[[Mystery Science Theater 3000]]''. The movie's stars were [[Reb Brown]], [[Cissy Cameron]], [[Cameron Mitchell (actor)|Cameron Mitchell]] and [[John Phillip Law]]. The spaceship effects were lifted wholly from ''[[Battlestar Galactica (1978)|Battlestar Galactica]]''. |
|||
Despite comments made during its airing as an ''MST3K'' episode, the movie was not made in [[Canada]], but rather in [[South Africa]] during the [[apartheid]] period. This has led some viewers to consider the all-white nature of the cast as racist rather than coincidental. |
|||
The most noteworthy features of the movie are the massive [[continuity error]] where a female cast member can be seen working at her computer console despite being killed by the villain in the previous scene, and the amazingly slow-paced and suspense-lacking chase in what look to be floor polishers in the end. |
|||
Interestingly enough, in the ''MST3K'' airing, [[Mike Nelson (MST3K)|Mike]] and the 'Bots made no riffs concerning the ripped footage from Galactica. They later claimed that it would have been too easy and would have overwhelmed everything else that could be riffed at. Therefore, they simply pretended not to notice. |

John Phillip Law, who appeared in this movie as the villain Elijah Kalgan, would show up later as the star of ''[[Diabolik]]'', the last movie to be riffed on MST3K. |

My aardvark is a special creature loved only by me, my birth mommy, my biological daddy, and mommy's ex-daddy. The "Scruutenheimer Space Station and Coffee Bar" is what my aardvark shall call home after its completion by German Tech Corporations in the year 30250 AD, due to lack of technologies and expertise on board the space shuttle modules, and I'm not even talking about that Russian trash they call rockets; it is simply not good enough for my precious, lovable, aardvark. I love my aardvark, especially since it comes from Pluto, born to a festive family of giant worms and mysteriously teleported to Mars (or so my aardvark claims), upon which it was picked up by Microsoft, due to their new headquarters location. I feed my aardvark a special diet of select lettuces and hummus; the creature is strictly vegetarian. However, due to a lack of proteins, my aardvark’s feces gives the impression that it eats an entire box of ExLAx ® daily. My aardvark’s hobbies include frolicking through my many acres of swamp, chasing poison dart frogs, and was previously known to, umm, “mount” squirrels and snakes from behind, thus leading to me removing his testicles, personally.
