I love the Moon Fargo in Moon Zero Two. Do you?

I saw the movie as a nipper in the Sixties. The Wells Fargo always reminded me a bot of the ANT in the Project SWORD Annual. I suppose my Dinky Lunar Bug sprang to mind as well as I played space games in the carpet.
Good gosh I love that vehicle, and that movie! I saw Moon Zero Two first-run in the theater circa 1970, and man oh man what a day!
ReplyDeleteYep, I saw it at the flicks too Zigg. The skull in the space helmet scared me to death!
DeleteLoved the movie, loved the miniatures, loved the sexy moon-girls, loved the music score, love love love!
DeleteI read somewhere, it may even have been on this blog, that the 'moondust' for the model shots was incorrectly tinted green, because the NASA photo reference for the moon's surface used by the effects team was a set of miss-coloured bad prints.
ReplyDeleteReally! Interesting Mish. ha ha. If only they'd had the internet!
DeleteI'd never seen "Moon Zero Two" before today, when I found it on Youtube. What a great movie! It has a very Heinlein-like feel to it.
ReplyDeleteGlad you enjoyed it Captain! And great it was on You Tube. It is a fab film. I used to call my toy stall Moon Zero Toys when I had an Ebay shop years ago, inspired by the film.
