Summary: Truth
Review: I saw this film as a historical documentation in it's day, having been there. A triumph over the times. The DVD is not the same. Cant be. I wish it could be so.

Summary: Buyer Beware!
Review: I used to love the original version so I rented it to watch with my grandkids. It was so revolting that we had to turn it off after 15 minutes. It seems that some [people] got hold of the idea and wanted to make their own version.My wife and I have watched it all the way through several times, and I was completely disgusted each time. It is degenerate filth that you wouldn't want in your house.

Summary: It was ok
Review: I was expecting a little more erotic scenes in this, but if you watch it without expecting TONS of nudity, you'll like it just fine. Flesh Gordon is a really funny parody with great characters. And hey, the acting's better than most movies from this decade. The DVD just needs some actual special features. It's still worth checking out.

Summary: Audio Commentary Makes the Difference
Review: In my earlier review I stated that it was a close call between the DVD and the VHS version of this movie. At that time, I hadn't found the director's audio commentary. It is mentioned on the case but is not listed in the disk's menu. It is on the disk, though, and can be turned on using the player's "audio" control. Howard Ziehm's commentary doesn't track the action in the movie or run half the length of the movie, but it is an amusing and informative account of what went into making this cult classic. That, plus the additional footage and the marginally better video and sound, makes the DVD a clear winner over the VHS version, in my opinion.

Summary: Wang rules
Review: Oh bless this film! First the poor parts that caused a 4 rating. They have nothing to do with the plot. Transferance created some grainy parts, as well as the occasional `skip' BUT, this movie is absolutely the best spoof of the Flash Gordon series. Originally, Back in the `70s, Flesh was supposed to be `X' rated. By todays standards, this is PG-13. There are little or no swear words, but there is frequent nudity. What cracks me up is the virginial Dale Ardor has a huge caesarian scar! Dr. Jerkoff, Planet Porno, Emporer Wang. Perfect spoof names. When the Amazon Queen (black patch over one eye and a leather patch over the opposite boobie) proclaimed herself as Chief Nellie, I damn near died. The quick scene of 50 followers of Emperor Wang, performing a nude Bunny Hop, slayed me. The stop action Penisaurus cave was parody plus. The backgroud space shots are purposely 2nd grader quality (wires cannily included), and enhance the absurdity. I love the bizarre. I adore the blatantcy of the campy lines. This DVD is NOT for your 13 year olds. Those of you who remember the 70's like I do, will want this DVD for your library. If you do NOT remember the Flash Gordon Series or Movie (Queen soundtrack) you will view this with utterly aghast amazement (hard to believe they had this kind of Mitchell Brothers humor 30 years ago), but you still appreciate the Young Frankenstein approach. This movie was made cheaply, cheesy, and superbly. Trust me. I am never wrong.

Summary: Boooring
Review: Partly thanks to improvements in film techniques and technology, the producers of Flesh Gordon managed to do an amazing job of duplicating the visual style, fashions and epic scope of the old Flash Gordon serials (which look shoddy by today's standards) on a very tight budget. For that, this film deserves some recognition. However, despite the film's accomplishments, its novelty begins to wear thin after the first ten minutes, and then you're just left with poor, sophomoric humour which quickly becomes sleep-inducing. Other "adult" movie parodies from this period, such as Al Adamson's adult musical versions of popular fairy tales, at least have moments of unintentional humour that occassionally wake up their viewers when their deliberate attempts at humour fail. The people who did Flesh Gordon, however, were far too professional in comparison, strictly adhering to a plot and utilizing the best possible production values they could, so unfortunately you mostly get nothing more than their poor script with its unfunny jokes. Still, its better than the big budget, early 1980s licensed Flash Gordon film with the cheesy Queen soundtrack.

Summary: Are these people functionally illiterate?
Review: Pay no attention to the comments of the reviewers who dismiss this film as degenerate softcore porn. That's what it was intended to be. How stupid do you have to be to purchase something entitled FLESH Gordon and expect it to be FLASH Gordon? It might also have helped to read the Editorial Review which makes it very clear that this is not a kiddie film. To those reviewers I would recommend purchasing some of the books and tapes in the excellent Hooked on Phonics series.

Summary: Plenty of Flesh, Some Gordon, Great Camp
Review: Purchased VHS of this years ago and couldn't wait for the DVD because I saw some things I definitely wanted a clearer view of. Unfortunately, the video quality of the DVD is no clearer than the tape which is a shame because there are some real knock outs in this flick. It's an entertaining mix of soft porn and a parody of the Saturday Morning Serials from the 40s. My favorite scene is the attack of the killer robots with their power tools. You guys have got to be kidding about who does the best job of acting in this; if they could act they wouldn't be in it. Pondering who does the best job of acting in this flick is like speculating on who's the greatest poet in Alabama. This is advertized as the Collector's Edition which contains 15 minutes of restored video. Wonder what it was like before it was restored. It's a fun movie but they didn't waste any money on quality film.

Summary: PORNO SHALL HAVE A NEW QUEEN TONIGHT!!!!!!
Review: The fact that this film has the worst acting and script ever doesent slow it down at all from being a masterpiece. A true cult classic and funny comedy at the same time, Flesh Gordon is a fast funny and fleshy film with not so much flesh. Wang is dastardly looking and I also agree with the two smart guys below me that FLESH GORDON himself is the most boring character in the film. FLEXI FOREVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
