Wishmaster fans take note. Andrew Divoff plays basically the same character in this movie, but he is a shithead lizard-man instead of the Djinn.

That cast sounds amazing though.

It's clearly where the entire budget went. Takei's performance is really special.

I can't believe they made a sequel too. Great Rifftrax versions though

This just jumped to the top of my to be watched list.

I love genre mashups.

Watched and enjoyed this the other night. Too much fan service from Newmar & Takei, not enough Divoff and Vander (vamping and hamming to the moon and back), just the right amount of Shatner.

I also watched the Rifftrax version... chuckled maybe 3 times.

Red Eye gang I'm not saying Musetta Vander's costume reveal is the single greatest moment in cinematic history... but it's damn close!

Night scorp Night scorp! (during the daytime...)

Divoff prospector Andrew Divoff played alien bad guy Red Eye but also cameoed as this crazy prospector I wish had got his own spinoff sitcom.
