I was surprised by this Simitar release. It is actually pretty good. Not bad at all for a video release. I think Lynn Holly Johnson is so charming and Ron O'Neal is a class act. It is very similar to Corman films from the same era like Dead Space, Galaxy of Terror and Forbidden World. Also reminded me of the ambitious but under appreciated ALIEN imitator "Creature" from 1985. There are few special effects but the drama is well played. Yes, it is predictable but once you reach a certain age you find everything predictable. I am usually only surprised if the ending is so bad it gets me peeved. I wasn't peeved by any of Hyper Space. In fact it was good enough that I am surprised it is not better known. I can find almost nothing out about this film. Its a simple space opera. But nothing remarkable. Good cast. The few effects are decent. The spaceship model sequences reminded me of the fleet ships on Battlestar Galactica 1978.
