Dan and Conrad venture into Disney's 'dark era' again – this time with a sci-fi twist! It's The Black Hole (1979), the mouse house's answer to the colossal box-office and cultural phenomenon of Star Wars two years prior. And like all dark era flops, it uncomfortably straddles mature themes (an egomaniacal scientist determined to journey through a massive black hole and willing to enslave his entire crew as zombified androids to do his bidding) with family-friendly fun (robots with Disney eyes having laser battles). The result is a grandiose, steampunk adventure with stilted dialogue, eye-popping visuals and a doom-laden score by John Barry at his finest... but is it any good? Or are Conrad's nostalgia goggles deceiving him? Find out!
