Before George Lucas became consumed by his own limited Star Wars blueprint, he made this interestingly raw and detached piece of adult sci-fi. Whilst not as obviously gratifying as Han Solo and Co. in the same way the poster draws you in with its stylishly tricky use of pink, the film has moments of classy potential.
