Earthlickers

About This Movie

Earthlickers is a wild ride through a desolate future where the seven Goddesses of Merkabatron bring their unique brand of, shall we say, enlightenment. The film combines campy humor with a vibrant aesthetic, channeling that retro-futuristic vibe reminiscent of Barbarella but with an Ed Wood twist. The pacing is, well, uneven – it lingers on some scenes and rushes through others, which adds to its charm if you’re into that sort of thing. Practical effects give it a raw edge that’s hard to replicate today, and the performances are delightfully over-the-top. The themes of love and healing juxtaposed with a raunchy delivery make it a curious piece that stands out in the indie sci-fi genre.

Earthlickers is somewhat of a rarity with limited releases and a niche following, making it a curious find for collectors. Various formats exist, but the original DVD is particularly sought after due to its scarcity. There’s an interesting cult status surrounding it, especially among fans of low-budget sci-fi, so it garners attention at conventions and niche film festivals where it occasionally pops up in discussions about unique cinema.
