Wham-Bam-Thank You, Spaceman (1973)

Because their planet will be destroyed in 500 years, two goofy-looking aliens land on Earth and commence "Operation Procreation" with a stroll down Hollywood Boulevard. Liking what they see, the two extraterrestrials do what they do best--abduct Earth women for some quick, cheap flying saucer sex! Among the oddball side effects: the women are returned to Earth transformed into sexual dynamos and nine months later, a baby alien is born...

So-so film, GREAT DVD!

I am not sure exactly what is expected from people that gave this film a poor review. It is 70's standard sexploitation schlock. No story, no acting, no dialogue. I would tend to think it rare to find ANY soft core 70's film to be much different. Still, the DVD is LOADED with great bonuses. If nothing else, consider it archival footage of the "late night after 11pm on a Friday night at Cinemax" film clip festival. There are some 6 trailers, all replete with nudity, as well as dozens of posters/ephemera of these and many other Harry Novak films that play on the screen while accompanied with audio tracks. The tracks are radio spots for these films, and I would dare anyone to find this stuff anywhere else. Best of all, there are two short films, one of which is VERY racy.

The goofy film gets 3 stars of 5 for the type of film it is. Let's not confuse it with Casablanca or Star Wars or something it should not be stacked against. The DVD itself gets 5 stars+ out of 5. A wonderful surprise to see a DVD so loaded with great stuff since the title itself is so poor. March 10, 2003

The worst I have seen!!

Do not bother to buy or even rent this one. The girls are not good looking and there is no story. It was a total waste of money! December 19, 2001

Wham-Bam-No Thanks!

"Wham-Bam-Thank You, Spaceman" was a major disappointment in every respect, except that most of the women in it are really good looking. It must have come out near the end of the nudie-cutie movie craze, because the language and actions are much more graphic than earlier Harry Novak productions. Virtually every other word uttered by the aliens is an expletive. After a while the effect of that is neither funny or shocking but boring. The absolute low point of the movie comes when the aliens watch a woman being attacked. Their idea of helping her is waiting until AFTER she's raped, beaming her on board their spaceship and having sex with her. Then they return her to her attacker and she turns the tables on him by raping him. And this is supposed to be a comedy! In addition to the film, the DVD includes a couple of theatrical shorts. "The Peeper" is fairly tame, but "Daughters Of Darkness" involves a satanic cult of devil worshippers. Unbelievable! October 10, 2001

What a hoot!

A cross between comedy and softcore porn it's a great movie just to watch and enjoy. Not much thinking went into production and it shows > lots of skin as the "aliens" have things backwards but this B movie has witty alien dialog and attractive women. If you want to turn off your mind and float downstream this is the movie for you! June 26, 2001
