Starship (1984)

Things are not going well on the mining planet Ordessa. The working conditions are awful, the workers are disgruntled, and the management is starting to crack the whip. An underground resistance movement is formed and led the young Lorca, and along with his droid and other rebel human workers, they vow to turn around the brutal regime. Mining management hires an unscrupulous mercenary to get the situation under control. Guiding his arsenal of military storm-trooper droids, the evil bounty hunter is set on destroying the entire human work force to solve the problem. The rebel's only chance for survival is to put and end to evil reign of terror, and escape back to earth. The film compensates its lack of budget by having more style that your average cheap sci-fi adventure.
