Dark Star

This week I plan to watch a film I've just never seen, John Carpenter's Dark Star. I've been aware of it for years and had it in my video collection for ages. I'm currently reading the film tie-in novel Aliens by Alan Dean Foster and it's put me in the mood for some classic sci fi. Anyone seen Dark Star?

DARK STAR was Dan OBannons unofficial basis of Alien. Its brilliant and funny, but you can see the roots of Alien within it. and as Kim says, the bomb bit is hilarious!
