Harry Trent (Matt Mitler) steals a spaceship. While he is in outer space, he witnesses the conquering of the earth by a giant fleet of aliens who have a certain resemblance with warthogs and also grunt a lot. Because his ship is damaged, Trent needs 5 years before he can land on earth. Almost everything was destroyed by the invaders, but Trent is greeted by the survivors as a hero, because it is said he owns the weapon to fight the aliens. He has no idea what they are talking about, though? Science fiction trash with ridiculous special effects. You wouldn't believe my description if you haven't actually watched it... It's Trent's sarcasm and the obvious self-irony of its makers that makes the movie easy to sit through. Be prepared for something silly, and if you are in the right mood, "Galaxy Destroyer" might become a small gem in your trash collection.

This movie combines Star Wars, Battlestar Galactica, Mad Max and Ray Harryhausen stop motion monsters. There's even a Sylvester Stallone look-a-like and a girl from Virginia with an Australian accent. While that all sounds very unoriginal, it worked out better than you would think. It's not as good as any of the movies it steals from but it's worth watching.

This no-budget genre rollercoaster starts out as a futuristic heist movie, then turns into a space opera, then becomes an isolated man survival story and finally resolves into a post apocalyptic road movie. And there's stop motion aliens.

Wow.

The first half was a tough watch.. it feels like a student film that they are taking way too seriously and yet simultaneously don't realize it's not as funny as they think it is. Only the Hero character seems to have ANY acting experience.

In the second half they seem to finally find the tone of their 'so bad it's good' movie and we get incredible dialogue such as: 'prison... it's not the character building experience they advertise' and my favorite: 'Oscar Wilde... for a fag he had some good ideas.'

Along the way we meet a Zach Galafianakis style stoner woodsman and a Tom Savini biker lookalike.

Recommended for only fans of creative film making with NO budget, ala Miami Connection or Dark Star.

Super low-budget sci-fi film looks as cheap at the original "Evil Dead," but lacks the inventiveness of that film (although comparisons to Sam Raimi for inventiveness is probably not all that fair). A starship pilot returns to earth to find it under alien control. Don't expect any futuristic cities or big sets. This is a bunch of dudes in the forest fighting aliens in bad make-up. I did enjoy the spaceship special effects for the space sequences, the but earthbound scenes are pretty weak. Still, as badly written, directed (by Brett Piper), and acted by it's cast of no-name actors, the film has a charm to it and it does have an exuberant fun feel of a bunch of friends who got together to make a goofy movie. Taken on that level, you might enjoy this piece of bad cinema, but don't go into this film expecting anything actually good (not even at "Hell Comes to Frogtown" levels of competent filmmaking).

The basic idea of the film isn't that bad, after all, not every film has to be a cinematic masterpiece with a completely new plot. Especially starting with time in space is a nice idea. But everything that plays on earth has failed. Nothing about the plot seems remotely believable (even given the experience of the coronavirus pandemic and how many people have dealt with the apparent disaster, this film remains incredible). The plot is simple, naive, without any finesse. The characters are stereotypical, without any inner development. Even for the mid-1980s, the tricks are pathetic and the mask is a horror. Anyone who came up with the idea of no longer using surnames a few years after the catastrophe, of calling a middle-aged man only "Old Man" and inventing a name like "Prof. Isaac Hoffenstein" really has no ideas of their own, only copied from the cliché book for end-time movies.

Thoroughly enjoyable. Relax and don't take it too seriously. Funny stuff. Fun to watch. Sorry, your review is too short. It needs to contain at least 150 characters.

Currently floating around as "Battle for the Planet" on Freeview streamer Tubi this is a Z-grade gem. Horrible effects, possibly the worst creature to ever grace a non-creature feature, schlock and enough double entendres to sink a battleship. And those are the highlights.

But it's fun, doesn't take itself seriously and there's enough mid-80s hair and fashion that you just can't put it out of its misery by turning it off. Grab a beer, some mates and some weed, and enjoy. This is a film from the world before social media, review aggregators and decent CGI.

Just laugh at it - it's all the movie wants from you.

The plot of the film seems like the late-night fantasies of a teenage boy. It is a fairly generic by-the-books sci-fi action film, navigated by a hero who never fails in any task. Elements of the production (particularly the special effects and costume design) are rather charming in how cheaply they appear to have been done.

Sorry but there is no excuse I can dream up to give this movie any kind of credit. Its horrible. Not just because of the impossibly no-budget sets and effects and wonky acting, but because there is no redeeming film making on any level. No sleaze, no so bad its good, no story, no effects, wrist-slashing soundtrack.... Net zero on this one, unless you need a sleep aid. Way way better 80s trash sci fi to be had out there.

Take out the horrible cgi, i mean disgustingly bad. They should never have even added that one creature, all that did was make me go, wow this is horrible 20 times. it holds onto the girl for 10 minutes , pulls her away from the torch when shes stretching to get it but guess who still managed top grab the torch even though she was suppose to be farther from than before....

The ship and tech these aliens have makes me think, mankind can go raid a planet with what we have now, the inside of the ship with the lever to steer or shoot looks like a freaking OLD ship. Only thing more advance was those crappy laser that buddy couldn't hit anything with 2 feet away.

Fight scenes weren't the worst, what i expected from it. very coincidental how everything plays out so well, riding a ship back to earth yet not being detected by these aliens. we have tech to see if anythings in our airspace so why couldn't the aliens? when he landed it was next to the few survivors left... luckily.

Crumby acting or just how the aliens acted in general, their fight scenes sucked. they look like there wearing masks. everything felt so scripted or convenient, too predictable.

That being said, wasn't a bad movie. probably a 5 if it wasn't for the pointless monster scene, all that did was make me hate it and the whole alien concept, don't make something you cant make look at least half decent, come on...

so just make this into a normal movie basically, based on end of the world and meeting people like Kelly mad dog and their adventures with harry would definitely have been better.

The movie nearly put me to sleep. It seemed to droll on to each next scene even though there was some consistency. One review stated the the movie centered around Harry Trent and a scantily clad woman. A fully clothed woman is not scantily clad. None of the summaries of the movie fit entirely to the actual movie so that may have had an impact on my view of the movie too. I just did not enjoy this movie.

Dumb, Fast Moving B Movie Trash = Fun!

Its about aliens.....well....look its a mix of star Wars, planet of apes, buck Rodgers and taken gun.

Just fun.

Give it a shot.

Fascinating. And brilliantly funny, IF you have a decent sense of humor and can see the double entendre's and innuendo. Acting is quite good for a simple film as well. Thoroughly enjoyable from beginning to end. Yes you have to take quite a bit with a grain of salt but on the other hand, the older classic treasures wouldn't live without said salt. So grab a salt shaker, sit back, relax and prepare to be entertained.

I can't get enough of the B movies. Some people know how to make a bad movie good, and some don't. These people get it. This movie deserves more credit than it receives- it's reasonably well acted, the special effects are goofy, but well executed, the costumes are silly, the dialogue is surprisingly funny at times, the story more or less makes sense- it's got it all. It reminds me of Time Chasers (my favorite MST3K & Rifftrax flick). I watched the Rifftrax version of this one and loved it. But in and of itself it's a fairly decent movie. I'm giving a higher rating bc it's got heart. It tries, and mostly succeeds in entertaining. Don't take it too seriously, bc it doesn't take itself too seriously. Just relax and prepare to be simply entertained.
