Lost in Space (1998) on VHS: Peak ’90s Cheese (infosec.pub)

Today’s VHS pick is Lost in Space (1998)—one of those 90s Hollywood stabs at turning 60s TV shows into blockbuster spectacles.

The cast is stacked: Gary Oldman, William Hurt, Matt LeBlanc, Mimi Rogers, Heather Graham. For a movie this goofy, it’s still wild that they roped in so much star power.

Critics trashed it at release, but over time it’s carved out a cult following.

I don't think I ever watched that show... but I know that soundtrack.

It's bugging me now because I don't know where I heard it from, maybe I heard it a few times when it was on the TV as a kid.

The one that I mean, and I think OP too, is a movie. I didn't even know there is a series.

It's based on a TV show from the 60s. And there was a recent reboot several years ago on Netflix
