In THE GREEN SLIME, the Earth is threatened by an approaching asteroid, and an orbiting space station is our only hope. In order to obliterate the gigantic rock, a team must land on its surface. Unfortunately, there's something on the asteroid that becomes a deadly danger all on its own.
From its opening seconds, we know this movie is going to be a laugh riot. The opening song is a funky classic, the sets are obviously plastic toys, the titular creatures are ridiculous, and the characters are utterly serious about this nonsense.
Richard Jaekel plays the rigid, humorless station commander. He's so tightly-wound that we fear his head might spin off into space at any moment! Robert Horton is Jack Rankin, another commander, sent from Earth to take control. The rivalry between these two, especially over the lovely Dr. Benson (the stunning Luciana Paluzzi), is hilarious.
Watching this soap opera unfold, while rubber monsters run amok, is sheer poetry!
So, gather your friends, select your favorite intoxicants, and prepare for liftoff...
