Before this and the better-known Disney film TREASURE PLANET, there was 1982's THE TREASURE PLANET (aka PLANETATA NA SAKROVISHTATA) which used the same premise for its story. "Treasure Island in Space" could almost become a sub-genre.
shareGreat movie/series, way underrated. I am impressed by how proficient the visual effects sequences are, much thanks to Edoardo Margheriti who must have been about 25 at the time.
shareAnyone know where you can get a copy of either film? TREASURE ISLAND IN OUTER SPACE (L'ISOLA DEL TESORO) (1987) or THE TREASURE PLANET (aka PLANETATA NA SAKROVISHTATA) (1982)? I'd love to see them both.
sharesecond that. I remember seeing it when i was a kid in Italy,. Been looking for it ever since, they never showed it again, to my knowledge
shareIs this movie released on DVD anywhere yet?
