In 2036, a police transport vehicle is hijacked in deep space. The scientists on board, some of them androids, react in various ways.
Cheap-looking science fiction, straight from the filmmaking school of Roger Corman. Â
Despite the obvious financial limitations, it has a rather good story and some decent performances, worth watching for its time, but not really one to go back to with modern eyes.
