Mutiny in Outer Space
“Astounding adventure from the center of the moon!”

Higher CrapScores mean more entertainingly bad. How we score movies.
Moon fungus gets aboard a space station, making the chain of command everybody's second-biggest problem. This small black-and-white sci-fi thriller is tighter than its rough effects suggest. Stiff official briefings add their own amusement while the contamination gets increasingly difficult to ignore.
