	Dark Star (film) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Dark Star is a 1973 sci-fi motion picture tongue-in-cheek comedy directed by John Carpenter and co-written with Dan O'Bannon, which explores the theme of cabin fever aboard a spacecraft on its 20-year mission to destroy unstable planets.
		Four lonely astronauts aboard DARK STAR are adrift in space, have several adventures and find various ways to relieve their boredom.
		It is the middle of the 22nd century and the scout ship "Dark Star" has been despatched on a twenty year deep space mission to destroy orbitally unstable planets that could threaten future colonization efforts.

	Dark Star
		Dark Star is a very funny film, it depicts an all too plausible future where technology has robbed man of any meaningful control over his life.
		Starring O'Bannon himself as ultra-neurotic spaceman Pinback, plus a cast of hirsute unknowns, the movies covers the last days in the life of four deep-space stoner garbage men trapped in a rusting starship and lumbered with a brain-numbingly tedious 20 year bombing mission.
		A subversive college-boy masterpiece which remains eminently watchable nearly 30 years later, Dark Star foreshadowed the pure cinematic brilliance of Assault On Precint 13 and serves as a sobering testament to Carpenter's pre-schlockmesiter brilliance.

		For those who don't know what it is about, Dark Star tells the story of five-man space ship on a mission to locate planetary systems with both habitable worlds and also planets which are in unstable orbits.
		Coincidentally, the dark areas at the sides and top of the image are from scotch tape residue.
		The subplot of Dark Star involving the beach ball alien has been generally accepted as a for-runner for Alien, which was co-written by Dan O'Bannon.

		The rest of these Dark Stars are almost certainly fragmentary on the masters of the circulating tapes.
		The structure of this Dark Star (a "Live Dead", or "First Stage" Dark Star) is as follows DS theme & jam > 1st vocals > jam > DS theme jam & 2nd vocals > transition > another tune (e.g.
		Stephen) The Second Stage Dark Star evolved during the summer of '69 -- primarily by the moderate expansion of the jamming before 1st vocals and the addition of "space" after the 1st vocals.

		Welcome to the deep-space cruiser Dark Star; charged with the objective of destroying unstable planets and filled with a top-notch crew of dedicated astronauts.
		Ordinarily the crew might have realised the problem but not on the good ship Dark Star - so much is broken or lost that one more breakdown get forgotten under the more pressing situation of having no toilet paper (it was all destroyed when the storage area blew-up).
		The most refreshing aspect of Dark Star is that it absolutely refuses to take itself seriously, revelling in a broth of humour, irreverence and stoned apathy.

		The Dark Star's crew is on a 20-year mission to destroy unstable planets and make way for future colonization.
		John Carpenter once described Dark Star as "Waiting for Godot in space." Made at a cost of practically nothing, the film's effects are nevertheless impressive and, along with the number of ideas crammed into its 83 minutes, ought to shame makers of science fiction films costing hundreds of times more.
		The plot of Dark Star is simple; she must make star systems safe for future human inhabitants by clearing unstable planets.

	Dark Star: The First Carpenter Classic
		Comedy is not the first thing that jumps to mind when one thinks of John Carpenter, but back in the early 1970s, it was a science fiction slapstick film that first got the young director noticed.
		The final image of Dark Star, an astronaut from Malibu space-surfing on a piece of the ship as he’s pulled to his death by a nearby planet, is oddly haunting.
		Dark Star may feel incredibly dated today, but to see two future giants of the science fiction industry making such a silly piece of fluff is quite a kick in its own right.
