Benson, AZ and Pahrump, NV... I did both on my last visit to the States, just because of Dark Star and Mars Attacks. Both towns are a bit of a dissapointment though ;) , but, hey, who cares, I was there. :)

A fantastic movie. There are so many quotes, so many scenes, how could anyone pick one as the best?
"You are about to exit the ship. Have a nice day."
"Didn't he tell this story 4 years ago?" "No, I think it was 4 years ago."
I don't know if I remember these exactly right, but still, so funny.

R I P Dear Dan... From just one more fan. Your tales brought plenty O' smiles... Your humor made many a O'Bannon-philes. You had a way about you... that folks just couldn't chew. Cuz they was spoon fed every memory... Needing the plots to be spelled out for free. Enjoy confounding that big Man in the sky... Even he needs to be shook up and made to cry... ;)))

My favorite band is Pinback and it's very cool how many sound bites they got from this movie. Not to mention it is a deep movie that represents the band well...imo

love this film and the soundtrack
My second try at posting Cal Kuniholms obituary. He played Boiler in this film. He died on November 26th 2008. Dark Star was his only acting credit....he was studying engineering at the same Uni as John Carpenter and Dan O'Bannon.
I have been corresponding with Brian Narelle who played Doolittle. He hadn't heard of his co-stars death before I mentioned it.

A terribly underrated sci-fi movie. The only movie in the sci-fi genre that raises the possibility that space travel can be stupefyingly dull and make you nuts, and eventually careless. No exciting Star Wars or Star Trek stuff here. Just Boiler trimming his beard, Pinback reading his pulp magazines and Talby staring into nothingness. Love it.
