"My Responsibility Is To The Moon Council!"...
What if, just before filming STAR WARS, George Lucas had put his head in a microwave oven and boiled his own brain? Well, this movie answers that question.
From the awesome "technology" on display, to the ultra-fantabulous costumes, THE SHAPE OF THINGS TO COME is a supreme, intergalactic miscarriage.
Jack Palance plays the megalomaniacal Omus, spending most of his screen time either smirking or looking dangerously constipated. Omus wants to dominate the Earth and the Moon through his wobbling army of trashcan killbots (aka: ornery traffic barrels).
Nicholas Campbell is Jason, a sort of stunned Luke Skywalker on Lithium. Carol Lynley stars as Niki, who must lead her small, red-suited resistance troops against Omus and his robo-dork brigade.
Ultimately, following the "plot" is pointless. It's best to simply allow the movie to wash over you like the creeping shadow of death.
FOR ADDED HILARITY: #1- Groove to the infinite wisdom of the spherical uber-computer, Lomax! #2- Listen to the eloquence of Sparks, the poetry-spouting robot!...
