Galaxy Lords

Even writing a review is too hard. In all seriousness, there should be laws against making movies like this in 2018. Sure, if you can sit through the stupid costumes and bad dialog, there is an element of plot that makes it through your laughing.

In a lot of ways, this flick delivered pretty much what was promised. Yeah, it was zero budget and when it showed, it showed. I mean, it s-h-o-w-e-d. But the budget isn't the problem here. The film also had moments of crazy, genius, demented whackaloon enjoyment that sometimes surface in flicks like this - stuff made by people who barely know what they're doing but are having a boatload of fun doing it. There simply wan't enough of that.

Some of the exterior ship scenes were actually better than expected - perhaps too much so. Yeah, they were still bad but a few steps beyond the moments where a pilot is controlling his ship by holding a cardboard box. And that difference underscores the whole film. This film really needed cardboard ships... or kitchen gizmos turned into spaceships. (Think Ernie Fosselius' "Hardware Wars")

I suppose the film's real flaw is it doesn't go with its real strengths and misses some real opportunities. Take the guy with the massive black cardboard costume, giant shoes and huge Groucho Marx nose over a walrus mustache - damn damn damn, that guy should have led the entire movie - he absolutely owned every scene he was in. He should have been the villain. Or the hero. When that guy walked out of the dressing room, they should have scrapped the script immediately and shouted "we're going with this. He's the hero. Let's rock and roll, baby. Pecan pie for EVERYONE!"

In short, Galaxy Lords is pretty much what it tries to be. If you like no-budget amateur sic-fi cinema, you might dig this. You might not. Mileage will definitely vary.

But if for no other reason, watch it for the guy with the giant black cardboard costume. You will not be disappointed.

Just didn't click for me. After seeing the cover, the effects seem a lot like an Atari game brought to life in the 70's. The amusingly low budget costuming paired with ever present CGI practically screams Atari.

This movie was made for less money then a new car, they say 15000$, and it shows.

If i would have known this i would not have spend my hard hear money renting this garbage.

There should be a worst movie i ever saw, and i guess this one fits the bill with the very bad acting, bad makeup, bad fx and bad bad bad everything....

Not sure who approves these movies it pains me to say it but this one if worst then the asylum movies.

The best way to make a good B-movie is to set out to make a good movie...and have a bunch of unintentional shortcomings.

Better still, follow Roger Corman's model--he can make a good movie on a shoestring budget, and it'll still carry that B-movie label.

Let's just call this what it is. An independent art house type movie that is a 21st Century version of early 20th Century experimental films.
