Yeah. There was definitely a basic cable tv version of this. Class of 1984 was another that showed a lot, with a lot edited. #spaceapecinema

And that was the studio’s insistence to have Kizer there, because while they trusted Jackson with a movie, they didn’t trust him with a movie costing near a million bucks. #SpaceApeCinema

This was one of those movies you could catch on USA Network and Up All Night a lot. Watched it on TV so many times. #SpaceApeCinema

Just Roddy Piper getting recruited to impregnate fertile women in an infertile post apocalypse, and he has a cod piece rigged with explosives. So yeah, not much. #SpaceApeCinema

Actually kinda just in time. 😜 #SpaceApeCinema

Just in. Hope I’ve not missed much #SpaceApeCinema

He might be a tough guy but he clearly never had to force himself on a woman in his life. But of course William Smith's character isn't buying that after his daughter got knocked up. #SpaceApeCinema

And even unlike, say, the sequels to this very movie. #SpaceApeCinema

This got a decent budget of a million bucks based on co-director Donald Jackson’s previous movie, ROLLER BLADE, being a successful straight to video release. The idea was to put this in theaters, but that didn’t happen for many reasons. #SpaceApeCinema

"There's a flap." #SpaceApeCinema

Sadly, she was replaced for the sequel by Penthouse Pet Monique Gabrielle (who showed up in movies like BACHELOR PARTY and AMAZON WOMEN ON THE MOON just to be naked). Both SILK movies had their... um... perks. #SpaceApeCinema

Yes, no Zen Filmmaking here. #SpaceApeCinema

I'm enjoying/concerned that his "gentlemen's area" alarm sounds EXACTLY like my bedside alarm clock.

Good thing I don't need to get up early tomorrow.

Cec Verrell as Sentinella. Already a New World Pictures face under Roger Corman production. Two years before HELL COMES TO FROGTOWN, she starred as a badass lady cop in Cirio Santiago's SILK. Recommended. #SpaceApeCinema

This is better than the movies I just mentioned by the sheer fact this was made on film with a script. #SpaceApeCinema

Roddy was always a presence on screen. Was obvious to John Carpenter when he saw him at one of the WrestleManias. #SpaceApeCinema

Beauty! #SpaceApeCinema

I feel like I've seen this sort of "toll booth of questionable effectiveness" before. #SpaceApeCinema

Piper was Canadian. From Saskatoon. North of Montana/North Dakota. #spaceapecinema

This type movie is not really my cup of tea, but I'll give it a shot. #SpaceApeCinema
