The last place you’d ever expect to find yourself.
This week at The B-Movie Clubhouse I’m on a Sci-FI kick again. So I picked a kind of overlooked film from 2009 called Moon. The film was directed by Duncan Jones and stars Sam Rockwell.
Astronaut Sam Bell has a quintessentially personal encounter toward the end of his three-year stint on the Moon, where he, working alongside his computer, GERTY, sends back to Earth parcels of a resource that has helped diminish our planet’s power problems.

East Germans in space!
This week at The B-Movie Clubhouse I wanted to do a Sci-Fi film so I picked an East German film In the Dust of the Stars (Im Staub der Sterne) from 1976.
After a six year journey, the Spaceship Cyrno lands on the planet TEM 4 from where they had received a call for help. Strangely enough, the Temers deny having sent this message. As commander Akala prepares the spaceship to leave they get an invitation from the rich ruler of TEM 4 to be a part of a lush party. Not only do the opulent food and the seductive dancers cloud their minds, but also the drugs mixed into their food manipulate their consciousness. Only navigator Suko was left behind on the spaceship for security reasons and makes an unexpected, terrible discovery.
