The rules (such as they are) are spelled out in the original thread (now locked for growing too big). Go ahead and post your guess. If Roy says you're correct, then you get to post a quote and judge the answers.

I'm thinking that it's probably one of those cheesy b&w films that have been on MST3K... but then I did go to a MST3K 4 film all-nighter last weekend so am probably still suffering after effects

STARCRASH? The Italian STAR WARS ripoff directed by giallo-hack Luigi Cozzi...er, I mean, the Marjoe Gortner and David Hasselhoff international space extravaganza directed by european auteur Lewis Coates!

...but Oh my lord, Caroline Munro!

David Hasselhoff???! Italian Star Wars?? Now that I have to see!

But no..... mind you there is a (very) loose connection with one of Hasselhoff's other, dare I say it, creations.
