Movie: Stranded In Space:
This pile of celluloid was originally a pilot for a series
called The Stranger. Astronaut Neil Stryker crash-lands
on Terra, a mirror image of Earth, where a brave new world
called the Perfect Order exists. Stryker's very presence is
perceived as dangerous and subversive to the Perfect Order: The
inhabitants of Terra fear he will bring other Earthlings to
infiltrate their planet. After breaking out of the hospital, a
pretty doctor begirlfriends Stryker and tries to help him get
back to Earth. And so, the perpetually beleaguered and grimacing
Neil Stryker wanders Terra, searching for a way to get back to
Earth.
