    You'll need a special sense of humor for this one!

    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.

    An interesting Sci-Fi mix.

    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.

    Nice idea, bad implementation

    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.

    So bad it's good

    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.

    • Trivia
      Brett Piper said in a 2011 interview that making this film was a nightmare. They ran into trouble which caused them to go over schedule, and then all but one of the actors started demanding that their pay be doubled for every additional day and that they receive their money in cash each day before they'd shoot. Piper said that meant he spent half the day running around trying to get the money which drove them further behind schedule, which cost even more money. In the end the cast was disappointed with how the film came out, saying it looked cheap and rushed. Piper said, "Gee, I wonder why?" He added that if that happened today, he'd fire everyone and rewrite the script, but he was too inexperienced at the time.

      In about 50 minutes of the movie when main character is fighting the huge alien creature nude, he is clearly wearing jeans when lying down on the ground and naked again in the next shot.
