Review

Featured review

Recycled Starlost Episodes from '73.

Starlost: The Deception is the result when Glen-Warren Productions takes two episodes of Starlost from 1973 and glues them together back-to-back. The orignal episodes are titled "Mr. Smith of Manchester" and "Gallery of Fear". In the former, Devon, Rachel and Garth spend time in a highly polluted over-industrialized dome dishing out CTV-Grade wisdom. In the latter, Our heroes encounter Magnus, a computer that causes them to see hallucinations of friends and family. Magnus also has a museum filled with CTV-grade art, and is up to no good.
