Spaceship to the Unknown (1966)
TV FilmSciencefictionActieAvontuur
Een zware condensatie van de originele serie comprimeert de originele dertien afleveringen tot een efficiënte speelfilm van 97 minuten. Een ramp lijkt dreigend wanneer wetenschappers ontdekken dat de planeet Mongo op het punt staat op de aarde te storten. Gelukkig staat de heldhaftige jonge Flash Gordon klaar om een onderzoeksmissie naar de ruimte en naar de snel naderende planeet te leiden. Daar ontdekken hij en Dale, die meegaat, dat Ming, de sluwe heerser van Mongo, de planeet met opzet op ramkoers met de aarde heeft gezet, en alleen Flash kan hem tegenhouden.
Regiseurs: Frederick Stephani, Ray Taylor.
