They showed it three weeks ago in Austin at the Alamo Drafthouse www.drafthouse.com and the crowd went totally bonkers over it, so now there is a theater in Seattle that will borrow their film print and spread the love.
I actually own a 16mm print of this film and had a backyard screening of it last night just to primp and get ready for Revenge o Sith.
I saw it here in Germany back in 1979. I was 12 and loved the movie. Watched the movie on DVD a few days ago and... it is terrible :-)

Oh, wow. No wonder Hasselhof Is popular in Germany. I think I would’ve loved seeing this movie too had it been shown in Russia. I think it’s a perfect kid’s movie, more even for teenage boys. Too bad I never seen it when I was growing up. Just caught it now on Amazon Prime. It’s pretty fun movie actually, not boring, imaginative despite the poor sp.effects.
shareI saw it at a rep house a few months after it came and went (in early 1982) after it was runner-up in some award show on TV a couple of months earlier. I think that "Battle Beyond the Stars" won.

I saw it in theaters when I was seven years old. Oddly enough, the ONLY memory I actually have of it is the huge tin foil star that was sitting in the movie theater's lobby! Visiting a website with pictures of this gem, the only thing that struck a memory was two silly looking stop motion robot thingys that I recall thinking were kind of cool back then! The rest of the experience, I must have blocked completely from my mind.

OK, so what's the speed of dark?
I aw this in theaters here in Guatemala, Central America. It was called "Ataque estelar del tercer tipo" (Star attack of the third kind) ¡!... Back then I was 9 years old and thought it was the best thing next to Star Wars.. well.. there was not a lot of movies back then in Guatemala.
I really want to watched again because some people mention the hand shape spaceship.. boy... I sweard I dreamt about that scene.. always thought that a fever attack produce me that kind of visions..
Oh well... Now I have a question.. In this movie appears a villain dress in black with blue light glow in his hands.. I mean gloves?... I'm not sure if really saw this in a movie or was another fever attack..
Greetings from Guatemala....
hi galdana , do you mean the movie 'Humanoid' ?
lord graal is the villain in that film, another italian sci fi like starcrash..he wears darth vader style black armour and shoots blue laserbeams from his gloves. look at www.golobthehumanoid.com
Where in the Cosmos did that space jockey get his license?!
thanks for the info... I never hear of that movie but when I went to the web page and look that little chinese boy named tomtom... something sparks in my brain...
Yeah... I saw that movie too in theaters, but for some reason I forgot... Now I ignore the plot or anything about it.. bur I remember the chinese boy...
¿Where can I find the movie? I live in Guatemala, Central America and it´s very hard to find cult movies in my country like star crash or The Humanoid...
Sorry for my bad english
a legal bootleg dvd of the humanoid is available from www.revok.com. also, dvd and old video copies of Humanoid and Starcrash are always for sale at ebay. both are classic cult films, and great to watch with a few beers.
hope this helps !

My friend Greg & I saw this when it came to the theather in Richmond VA. We laughed ourselves silly over this.
shareYes, I saw this on the big screen as a double feature with...INFRA-MAN!!! The funniest 3 hours ever. Never had so much fun in my entire life.
