'''''Space Mutiny''''' (also known as ''Mutiny in Space'') is a 1988 legendarily bad science-fiction action film starring [[Reb Brown]] about, [[Sarcasm Mode|surprisingly enough]], a mutiny aboard the spaceship known as the ''Southern Sun''.
Line 13:
''[[Space Mutiny]]'' was filmed in [[Useful Notes/South Africa|South Africa]] during [[The Apartheid Era]] (a fact understandably not mentioned on the end credits - see also ''Prisoners of the Lost Universe'', ''Golden Rendezvous'', ''Hellgate'' etc), which some viewers think ties in to all the pseudo-fascistic goings-on (and explains the all-white cast, not that that was exactly unusual in Hollywood action movies of the time).

=== Tropes used in ''[[Space Mutiny]]'': ===
Line 35:
* [[Department of Redundancy Department]]: "We keep this TOP CLASSIFIED SECRET."
** "And there wasn't time to go to the auxiliary backup system."
* [[Die Hard Onon an X|Die Hard On A Spaceship.]]
* [[Dude Looks Like a Lady]] (or is it Lady Looks Like A Dude?)

Line 45:
* [[Greek Chorus]]: The Bellerians
* [[Groin Attack]]: Repeatedly. On the same guard.
* [[Hey, It's That Guy!]]: Kalgan is played by John Phillip Law, who starred in ''[[Danger Diabolik (Film)|Danger Diabolik]]'' and as the blind angel Pygar in ''[[Barbarella]]''. Reb Brown, AKA "He who has many names", also starred in ''[[Yor, the Hunter Fromfrom Thethe Future]]'' as the title character, and played [[Captain America]] in a (mercifully) busted pilot movie. Let's not forget that the actor playing the Santa is Cameron Mitchell.
* [[I Did What I Had to Do]]: Verbatim from Ryder as he's [[What the Hell, Hero?|called out for letting Professor Spooner burn to death]].
** It doesn't even make sense, since he was teleported out of the fire by an automatic ejection system.
Line 77:
* [[Red Right Hand]]: MacPhearson's limp.
* [[Relationship Reboot]]: Blast Hardcheese and Doctor Lady do this.
* [[Romance Onon the Set]]: The awkward romance between Dave and Lea is a major contrast to real life - Reb Brown (Dave) and Cisse Cameron (Lea) fell in love during the Ted Knight Show back in 1979, and are still married today.
* [[The Schlub Pub Seduction Deduction]]. Lea on the doughy henchmen.
* [[Screaming Warrior]]: What Ryder is supposed to sound like.
