Exploring derelict space ship in rare Soviet-style SF film

Uploaded by: trekfancvg

Video Stream Description:
Here's an amazing scene from an ultra-rare, kitschy, trippy, Soviet-style SF film, Ikarie XB 1 (aka Ikaria XB1, Icarus XB1 and Voyage to the End of the Universe). Czechoslovakia's first science fiction film, this remarkable 1963 movie tells the story of Starship Ikaria XB 1's 2163 trek to Alpha Centari. ("Voyage" was the savagely cut, English dubbed version released by American International Pictures.)
The film is generally apolitical, except for this remarkable scene, in which the explorers enter a derelict 20th Century space craft, littered with evidence of capitalist immorality. The visuals are striking. Corpses of tuxedo-clad, gambling westerners, their bodies preserved by open vacuum. The c
rew killed by their own chemical hand-weapons as they fought over dwindling oxygen. The ship laden with nuclear weapons -- still active after centuries. Ikarie XB 1 is an ambitious, thoughtful, intelligent film that was decades ahead of its time. It's an ultra-rare "must-see" for any serious SF fan
, with high-concept elements galore: a trip to proxima centaura; time dilation; future foods, fashion, music and dance; first-contact protocols; increased longevity; artificial intelligence; bulky socialist robots. It's said the screenplay was inspired by the work of Stanislaw Lem, including "The M
agellanic Cloud" from 1955. Available as a PAL Region 2 DVD from European retailers, and in the US from xploitedcinema.com. Please buy the DVD to help encourage future DVD releases of other Eastern-bloc SF gems.

Ah, even they grasped the prime principle of space exploration - it ain't exploration if noone is killed. But damnit, that's some sweet movie.

Cool! These surealistic Sci-Fi movies of the 1950s and 1960s still evoke fascination and wonder for the deep universe. Another one, ironically produced in East Germany which was not known for its cinematography, that was terrific was 'First Spaceship on Venus'. It has a great interplanetary rocket called The Cosmostrator. Thanks, Trekfancvg, for making this treat available for us.

Sunningly beautiful cinematography. Lighting is done just right, and the sets do not look cheezy or weak as in some Star trek episodes. I thing it's better than the original the Day the Earth Stood Still with Michael Rennie, and the message is not overly didactic.

Wow. Considering the time and place this was made, this is a very good effort. The image of the abandoned spaceship is better done than in many, more recent productions. In Star Trek, there is always gravity and a breathable atmosphere no matter how old the ship.
