Spaced Invaders (1990)
from GoodTrash GenreCast · host GoodTrash Media
We thought we were done knowing Jack, but this week, he seems to have reared his ugly head once again—kind of. This week, Dustin continues Killing His Darlings with the 1990 Touchstone Pictures release: Spaced Invaders. This homage to War of the Worlds, and probably Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, is a fascinating bomb from the era of high concept. We talk pastiche, homage, War of the Worlds, capitalism, Jack Nicholson, and much, much more as we bring Spaced Invaders to the analysis table. Join us now!
