Saucy sci-fi antics aboard a spaceship where seduction, species, and bad explosions collide.
SPACE THING
Visit the planet of the rapes!
It’s Buck Rogers for adults as Col. James Granilla, an alien in human disguise, visits the flying saucer of Captain Mother, and her all-girl crew in the year 2060. But because Granilla is a "Planetarian" and all the lovely space nymphs are "Terranians," he seeks to learn all about their "intimate ways."
Space Thing is a 1968 American comedy science fiction film directed by Byron Mabe and David F. Friedman about a disguised alien infiltrating an all-female spaceship crew, leading to erotic misadventures and disastrous special effects.

The SassyFlix Take
From the vault: Not every sci-fi odyssey needs a budget—sometimes it just needs nerve.
Why Cult
Captain Mother leads her crew with a whip and a penchant for mixing pleasure with punishment, including two lesbian encounters and a notable disciplinary scene.
The climactic spaceship explosion is famous for its spectacularly bad special effects, a true highlight for lovers of low-budget sci-fi.
Asteroid surfaces are played by the outskirts of Palmdale, California, serving up terrestrial terrain as intergalactic scenery.
Our disguised hero is the center of attention for the spaceship’s amorous women, giving a Planetarian’s-eye view of Terranian ‘intimate ways.’
About This Film
All of the women are anxious to seduce our hero, as the other two men on the ship are not very exciting. Our hero forces a landing on an asetroid (actually the outskirts of Palmdale, California) and everyone runs around topless and has sex. He then blows up the alien ship in the worst special effects explosion.
