Space Thing

About This Movie

Space Thing is one of those quirky gems from the late '60s that blends comedy and sci-fi in a way that feels oddly experimental. The plot kicks off with a guy reading sci-fi magazines in bed, but soon spirals into a surreal dream where he dons an alien disguise to thwart an intergalactic conflict. The pacing is a little uneven, reflecting its dreamlike quality, and the practical effects, while modest, have a certain charm. It’s interesting how the female captain’s character navigates sexuality amidst the absurdity, not something you see often in films of that era. Overall, it’s a strange trip with a blend of humor and social commentary that keeps it from fading into the background.
