Product Description

From the Back Cover

A&E Home Video proudly presents the continuation of the second season of world-renowned producer Gerry Anderson's seminal 1970s sci-fi adventure series... Space: 1999. "Journey into Worlds Beyond Belief" with the continuing adventures of 311 men and women trapped on Earth's moon after being blasted from Earth's orbit. Boasting more sets and more special effects, Year Two was proclaimed: "Bigger, Better, More Exciting Than Ever! Freeing the creative imagination--so effectively accomplished in Space: 1999--characterizes mankind's exploration of space." --Wernher von Braun, President, National Space Institute.

Witness the excitement of Space: 1999 as never before! Digitally remastered for a superior DVD presentation from the original 35mm elements! Uncut, with 12 minutes of additional footage not seen in areas of the U.S. during original broadcast release! Combining elements of science fiction, adventure, and fantasy, Space: 1999 has claimed a worldwide following--finding a life beyond its titled date and securing a place in the 21st century and beyond.

"Seed of Destruction": In draining all power from Moonbase Alpha, a regenerative crystal holds the essence of an entire civilization awaiting rebirth. "The Beta Cloud": An unstoppable creature of immense power wreaks havoc through the hallways of Alpha, leaving only Tony and Maya to confront it. "A Matter of Balance": A race of amorphous aliens plots to re-enter our physical realm using a naive Earth girl to tip the scales in their favor. "Space Warp": Helena and Alan fight to save Maya, who, in a feverish state, uncontrollably transforms from one lifeform to another, each more hostile than the last. "Bringers of Wonder Part 1": Men from Earth bring the wondrous possibility of returning to Earth, but Koenig sees through a veil of illusion and realizes there's more than meets the eye. "Bringers of Wonder Part 2": Koenig finds himself battling his own people to save Alpha from a force hell-bent on creating a radioactive inferno by exploding Alpha's remaining nuclear waste dumps. 312 minutes.

5.0 out of 5 stars hugely underrated series, brilliant stuff! May 27 2004
By A Customer
Gerry Anderson's two seasons of Space:1999, and the prequel series UFO, seem to me to be three separate eras in one long story, rather like the eras of three different Dr.Whos, or perhaps different spin offs of Star Trek.
If that's the case, UFO is the equivalent of the Tom Baker era or the original Star Trek, it's the one that gets all the respect. Season 1 of 1999 is like the Davison era or perhaps Next Generation of Trek. Season Two of Space:1999 is like the Colin Baker era of Who, or Deep Space Nine in Trek. Yes, it is the one no one wants to admit they like, but if given closer examination with an open mind, it actually has much to offer and much to enjoy. This little lot contains some superb contributions by great writers. Terrance Feely (UFO, The Prisoner) delivers the goods in the excellent Bringers of Wonder, while Pip and Jane Baker (Dr.Who) write the low key but good A Matter of Balance. And then there's the superb Seed of Destruction, a compelling doppelganger story with an evil Koenig taking his place on Alpha. Space Warp, on the other hand, is written by Fred Freiberger and unlike the fun Beta Cloud, it sucks. Not to worry, though, the rest of the series is so much fun and so well produced that it is still totally entertaining and enjoyable. These characters are not as dark as the ones from the previous seasons, but they are fun and likeable enough to care about and enjoy their adventures. An underrated gem of a series!

4.0 out of 5 stars very entertaining 70's tv April 20 2004
By A Customer
What a great show this was and is. Set 7 includes Bringers Of Wonder in which really gross and goopy aliens take over the base by appearing to be the loved ones of the people on the base, but Koenig can see them for the slimy creatures they really are. Landau gives a wonderful performance of reacting to their true disgusting forms. This is not serious science fiction, but Landau is excellent, and the other cast members give it their best too. The goopy monsters are amusing and also pretty darn disgusting and creepy. The glops of slime oozing down the eyes of the aliens is a great touch.

4.0 out of 5 stars so enjoyable it hurts Feb 2 2004
The second season of Space 1999 was very different from season one. Monsters and humor abound in season two. Most of the episodes are ridiculous, but filled with guilty pleasures.
Every episode in set 7 is a real hoot!

"Seed of Destruction" is about an evil mirror image of Koenig who takes over Alpha. Evil Koenig is a mean S.O.B.! The only thing better than an evil Koenig is when Koenig freaks-out in "Bringers of Wonder". Classic!

"The Beta Cloud" involves a nasty cloud that sends a wild bug-eyed monster to steal the entire life support system of Alpha. The creature runs amok on the moon base for the entire episode
while the cloud tries to persuade the Alphans that it's a non-violent cloud and they should just give up the life support system and die, but the Alphan's just wont listen. They are a stubborn lot.

"A Matter of Balance" features the lovely Lynn Frederick! There's also a bald translucent anti-matter spirit, a bug-eyed samurai creature, and Maya turns into a monkey! Tony makes more bad beer in this one too, and he makes Lynn drink it and then makes her cry! Who in their right mind would make the lovely Lynn cry?! Damn that Tony! First he get's Maya and now this!

"Space Warp" is about Maya going bananas and transforming into various dangerous forms that attack the base, but the absolute best is that she turns into the bug-eyed monster from the "Beta Cloud"! It's back and running amok and attacking Alpha again, BUT this time it's wearing a wild wig that looks like dread-locks! Plus, Barabara Bain and Nick Tate chase it around the moon's surface in a moon buggy! Keep plenty of oxygen on hand for this one!

"Bringers of Wonder" is a two part episode with slimy aliens that only Koenig can see. There's nothing like a talented actor freaking-out with slimy aliens. This one includes the classic Koenig line: "I haven't had this much fun since I burned grand ma's wig"! Nobody freaks-out like Koenig!

Set 7 is filled with addictive gems such as these. Ed Wood would be proud of these episodes. This is one of the best DVD purchases I've ever made.
