Voyage to the End of the Universe
A promo still of the AIP butchered version of the Czech Ikarie XB1.
I remember the dubbed version from Saturday afternoon TV. I also remember Phillip Strick’s glowing review in Science Fiction Movies (one of my seminal texts, as it were), and likening the faces of the film to Kelly Freas artwork. Then I saw the original Czech version on the big screen and really liked it. Serious SF films of this vintage are certainly rare, although not as much as in the old Warsaw Pact.
