This is a unique movie. It is not out of print. It is still for sale at the film-makers' website.

The American Astronaut played years ago at the Charles Theater in Baltimore, MD as part of a film festival. I remember seeing the poster and reading a small blurb about the film at the time which peaked my interest. I made a mental note to myself about seeing the film. Unfortunately, that mental note got buried somewhere in my brain and I forgot to go. Later I received an email from a friend telling me that the film was going to be shown again locally on the big screen to promote it's DVD release. There was no way I was going to miss out on a second chance to see this film in a theater. Lucky for me, the guy who made the film (Cory McAbee) was there in person to talk about the film and even played some tunes with his band, The Billy Nayer Show.
After watching The American Astronaut and listening to Mr. McAbee speak about making the film, I'm convinced he is a total genius. I will remember that night as one of the most inspiring times in my life.
Anyone who would complain that Cory McAbee has no talent or that The American Astronaut is boring or unwatchable is no judge of talent.

Music is great throughout, worth watching for that alone. The idea of cowboys in space goes back aways of course. I think it's presented very well. The low budget effects, the black and white photography seem appropriate to the theme rather than detracting from it. Lots of very dry humor. Dialog and acting come off very natural, whole thing seems well written. Good, old time serial type plot premise. The only disappointment for me is that the story isn't actually resolved. It simply stops (as the first installment of an old time serial might). I was ready to watch a few more hours.

I'll just say if Orson Wells were alive and an indie rocker he would have made this movie. If you haven't seen it, you aren't a whole person yet. You'll understand that once you see this movie it is your civic duty to show everyone you know. One day, maybe, every man, woman, and child will have seen The American Astronaut.

THIS IS MY FAVORITE MOVIE!!! It's so crazy because you never know what is going to happen next because it's in another reality on a different planet. But they still have super cool dirty dive bars even in space where things get REAL CRAZZZZY! Like this guy goes to the bathroom and these other two martians or something come in and start singing at him through the stall FOR NO #@%#!ing REASON. WTF-LOL!!? Absolutely incredible! It's like 2001 Space Odyssey on acid directed by David Lynch. Or Twin Peaks on MARS. PLUS, it's in Black and White, which makes everything seem old and real serious but at the same time weird and futuristic. BUY ONE. BUY TWO. BUY THREE of these DVDS and your out of your mind at the old ballgame. :@
