Starhunter ReduX

Definite inspiration for elements of firefly - Percy is Kaylee in every way, the Raiders are similar to Reevers, weaponry fire bullets not lasers, there is a back story of a great war, the 2nd in command is a women with military background.

Plots are decent but scripts and music are reminiscent of Hercules and Xena. Editing is appalling with scenes clipped too short at times and special effects are like something made in a 1980's camcorder however, pushing through these down points there is certainly a decent programme underneith worth watching.

I haven't seen the original Starhunter for quite some time, back in 2008, so I don't recall it well enough to compare to the redux version; however, I would say the changes that I do notice are quite good. The Special effects works, even if they are basic models; I really enjoyed the planet/space scenes.

I always have enjoyed Tanya Allen's character in the series and Michael Pare's. I am only one episode 3, but I was hoping there would have been a season 3 by now; it would be nice to have one before the original cast gets too old to do it.

For everyone comparing it to Firefly, Starhunter was released before Firefly: While I enjoyed Firefly, it seemed to lack original ideas like Starhunter. Firefly is a sugar coated version with mainstream ideas, for me. Starhunter could have used better dialog and such, but I found it rewatchable; in the end, a rewatchable series is more satisfying for me.

Appreciated.

You have to watch a couple of episodes to get used to the style; but once I did, I loved it. It did remind me of Firefly . Percy is the highlight of the show. I hope it gets picked up sometime to finish it.

Its not the best Science Fiction show out there. But its not the worst either. We all have our favorites, and this is one of my favorites. To those that are saying this program is riding on Firefly's coat tails, or eating its dust. You're wrong. Firefly came out in 2002. Starhunter was out in 2000. Do the math. Its rather simple.

Enjoy this show for what it was. An interesting science fiction, that wasn't a carbon copy of something else out there. It was different. It was unique. If you're going to complain about the special effects, take look at Doctor Who in the 1960s or how bad the CGI was in the early seasons of Babylon 5.

Besides. The story is reallly what matters. This tv show has that. Story. And yes at times it can be disjointed. But its still there.

This is so ridiculous that it is hilarious fun if you like scifi. The story is interesting and unique especially for 2000. The acting is pretty bad but enjoyable. The special effects are 1980's style mixed with 1990's style. I personally can look beyond bad special effects. There are some great actors with horrible lines. If you like campy scifi with a good story, you will like this show.
