Review
In the early 19th century, a young writer by the name of Jane Austen enchanted the world with her witty and romantic novels. Her stories may have been set in the English countryside, but they spoke to universal truths about love, society, and human nature. Today, we find ourselves transported from Austen’s world to another – one far beyond our own planet, where hilarious hijinks ensue between three spacefaring babes and their misadventures with human men. This is “Space Babes from Outer Space”.
At first glance, “Space Babes” seems like a departure from Austen’s typical subject matter. After all, she never wrote about extraterrestrial seductresses or laser guns. However, upon closer inspection, there are many similarities between Austen’s work and this tongue-in-cheek sci-fi romp.
For one thing, both “Space Babes” and Austen’s novels are concerned with love and marriage. In “Space Babes”, the titular heroines come to Earth in search of mates (preferably ones with six-pack abs). Similarly, Austen’s heroines often struggle to find love in a society that prioritizes wealth and status over true affection.
There are also themes of class and status in both works. In “Space Babes”, the alien women are initially drawn to wealthy CEO Richard Longfellow – despite his questionable fashion choices – because he represents power and prestige on Earth. In Austen’s novels, characters like Mr. Darcy or Emma Woodhouse grapple with their own privilege and how it affects their relationships with those below them.
Of course, one can’t talk about “Space Babes” without mentioning its raunchy humor and over-the-top special effects. While Austen was certainly no prude (see: Mr. Collins’ proposal in “Pride and Prejudice”), it’s safe to say she never wrote a scene where an alien woman uses her tentacles to pleasure a human man. However, both “Space Babes” and Austen’s works share a sense of irreverence and willingness to push the boundaries of what’s expected.
As for the plot of “Space Babes”, it’s a wild ride from start to finish. The three alien women – named Tansy, Trista, and Titsy (yes, really) – crash land on Earth and must navigate our strange customs and language while also avoiding the wrath of their own planet’s rulers. Along the way, they meet Richard Longfellow (played with goofy charm by Tyler Mauro), his dorky coworker Mike (Jesse Janowsky), and his ex-girlfriend Karen (Ellie Church), who has some secrets of her own.
The acting in “Space Babes” is intentionally hammy, with the cast fully embracing the film’s campy tone. However, there are moments where they manage to inject some genuine emotion into their performances. When Tansy reveals her tragic backstory to Richard, for example, it’s surprisingly affecting despite the absurdity of the situation.
The real standout performances come from Allison Maier, Alyss Winkler, and Danielle Evon Ploeger as Tansy, Trista, and Titsy respectively. They’re clearly having a blast playing these larger-than-life characters and their chemistry together is infectious.
It would be remiss not to mention the film’s impressive production values. For an indie sci-fi flick with a modest budget, “Space Babes” looks surprisingly polished. The colorful costumes and sets add to the film’s playful aesthetic while the practical effects – such as Tansy’s tentacle arms – are impressively executed.
One area where “Space Babes” could be criticized is in its portrayal of women. While it may seem empowering on the surface to have three female protagonists who are confident in their sexuality, the film frequently reduces them to objects of male desire. Additionally, Karen – the film’s only prominent human woman – is portrayed as a conniving shrew who manipulates men for her own gain.
However, it’s worth noting that “Space Babes” is not meant to be taken seriously. It’s a goofy, over-the-top comedy that revels in its own absurdity. If anything, the film could be seen as a subversive commentary on how women are often objectified in media.
Ultimately, whether you’ll enjoy “Space Babes from Outer Space” depends on your tolerance for low-budget sci-fi comedies with a healthy dose of raunchiness. But if you’re looking for a lighthearted romp through space with some genuinely hilarious moments and surprisingly endearing characters, then give it a shot. Who knows? Even Jane Austen might have gotten a kick out of it.
