Phantom Planet

Set in the “distant future” of 1980, Phantom Planet is a glorious sci-fi trip. Dean Fredericks plays an astronaut sent by the government to investigate a mysterious asteroid. Before he can say “B-movie cliché,” his ship is caught in a meteor shower, his partner floats away and a tractor beam begins to pull him in. Soon Fredericks is shrunk down to the same size as the asteroid’s tiny inhabitants, and that’s where the fun starts! Phantom Planet finds our hero put on trial, caught in a love triangle, and conscripted to fight the terrifying alien menace that is The Solarite (led by character actor Richard Kiel), all before he can return home. It’s a hilarious journey into the future of the past and it is presented here in beautiful color for the very first time!
