Howard Ziehm's Flesh Gordon celebrates five decades of swollen sci-fi hilarity with four fully engorged two-disc anniversary Mediabooks from Germany's Turbine Medien. Four limited edition covers are ready to thrust themselves upon your collection on February 22nd!
Before Star Wars, before Star Trek: The Motion Picture, hell, even before there was Mike Hodges' Flash Gordon - there was Flesh Gordon! The hilariously sexy bawdy sci-fi comedy has been a staple of midnight movies for generations. Our hero, virile all-American athlete Flesh Gordon with his right-hand gal Gale Ardor and Dr. Flexi Juckow travel to the distant Planet Porno to stop the evil Emperor Hordes and his devastating sex rays. It's a tough job but someone's got to do it! Fans of this 70s romp have four new exciting rigid Mediabooks to choose from!
