Our new sci-fi series Sense of Wonder presents a digital restoration of this 1974 cult classic.

“Sorry to interrupt your recreation, fellows, but it is time for Sgt. Pinback to feed the alien.”

It’s hard to believe that the creators of both ALIEN and HALLOWEEN got their start creating a film that heavily features a beach ball as an antagonist but that’s Hollywood for you! Directed and Written by John Carpenter and Dan O’Bannon, this student film turned labor of love became the launching point for both their careers. DARK STAR also features special effects from Academy Award winning artist Gregory Jein and camera work by cult director and actor Nick Castle.
