Quote - I can't dredge up the name!! But it's the one where there about 3/4 guys, stuck in a gungy spacecraft that is blowing up suns and things. They eventually meet something they can't overcome (a ticking time-bomb thingy), and it ends up with one of them "surf-boarding" into oblivion..
(What the h*ll was that one called?????)

Dark Star, John Carpenter's directorial debut, partly written by Dan(?) O'Bannon (later, screenwriter for the original Alien).  It started as a film school project and then was expanded and released in theaters.  O'Bannon supposedly once said he went on to create Alien to make people scream since they didn't laugh at the beachball critter aboard the Dark Star.

Sincerely,

Bill
