Advice: Buy the new Dark Star DVD. Video quality is vastly improved considering it was shot in 16mm in 1974. Colors are vibrant now for one thing. I'm watching the long documentary on disc 2 now and it is excellent. However, the menu encoding seems screwy, ie. I had to monkey around to get to the extras. Strange. But I say unto thee: get this DVD. The movie really gets me buzzing, very amusing story. The extras are great too.
