Mutant on the Bounty
The crew of an interplanetary commercial freighter beams aboard a now horribly mutated saxophone player who has been adrift in space for over twenty years. He starts to get along with the crew, and very close with an alluring journalist. But that's when two criminals are beamed aboard, taking the ship hostage.

One of my all time favorites.
hyped garbage
Best movie ever!
Bad Acting and worse Bad Screenplay
I can usually watch anything and I have often enjoyed films that most people agree really stank. BUT this is a major change in my film enjoyment. This film is not only bad, but BORING too! IT STINKS.... On the box, there are 4 stars awarded to this show saying, "One of the BEST drive-in movie of 1989. Check it out twice!" by Joe Bobb Briggs of Host of Drive-In Theater on the Movie Channel. The box also says, "In the grand tradition of Mel Brooks' "Spaceballs" comes this sci-fi comedy guaranteed to provide light-years of laughs. Things are fairly dull for the crew of the space research vessel the USS BOunty until Max (Kyle T. Heffner of 'Flashdance' 'Young Doctors in Love' and 'Women in Red', a stranded musician in space, is accidentally mutilated when he is beamed aboard. He's soon followed by two additional strangers who have been following Max across the universe, but aren't saying why. The journey is long, the crew is crazy, and you'l laugh until your out of control." BEWARE: This is a complete load of steaming bull!@#$. It is not anything like a Brooks film...the film is too long, the plot makes little sense, and I didn't even smile through this one. Give film to someone you dislike.
Yes this is a terrible film and yes that is a phone you see in the main characters face but any film is worth watching at least once don't let this review put you off ignore the terrible dialog and abysmal special effects and just enjoy the sight of the security officer with all the personality of a microwave, literally and the bad guy in the "...one place he is always alone...the s**tter" i've never looked at a toilet in quite the same way!
Flush a guy down the toilet? That's really funny. (Yeah, right!) This film starts out looking serious, despite its title, with nice production design. Idiotically, a jazz musician gets a phone receiver pulled through his face, which is enough to give the overweight but otherwise in good health captain a fatal heart attack (This is supposed to be funny?) The scarred-up guy is hunted down, has sex in the shower with one of the crew, and deals with a transsexually-minded android who likes to put on women's clothing. As wild as that might sound, it is bogged down in tedium, and succeeds neither as a comedy or as science fiction.
Reviving B-movies is one thing, and unfortunately, MUTANT ON THE BOUNTY doesn't fit well in the modern, contemporary year of 1989 when movies were made to really attract viewers' tastes. This would have been a fairly decent film thirty years prior to this release, without the lame jokes and terrible acting performances. Even the sets are poorly designed, too! Who on Earth would let the actors wear their original garments in a spaceship anyway? It's also unbelievable that I counted 13 "F" words spoken, making it the highest number for a movie rated PG-13 by the M.P.A.A.! Here is yet another lame-brained comedy that gets tossed out of the window. Ranks right up there with LEONARD, PART 6!
