After twenty years on a spaceship whose mission is to destroy unstable planets the crew have all gone pleasantly mad, have taken on a pet alien and now have to contend with a malfunctioning intellectual bomb.

The nearest you'll ever get to a psychedelic experience without having to crawl around fields picking poison fungi or buying dodgy stuff at festivals. Still a brilliant cartoon after all these years, a trip through the design styles of the 60s - the soundtrack's not bad either!

Reggae legend Jimmy Cliff more than holds his own in this now cult-classic. Jamaican country boy Ivan travels to Kingston with dreams of becoming a big recording star, but his naive optimism is gradually destroyed by the web of corruption he finds there. Great story and a stonking soundtrack.
