Why Dark Star Perfectly Pairs With Ridley Scott's The Martian

[هَـ-ђāŵĩ-ـَاوِي]

Putting Dark Star and The Martian together sounds strange at first. John Carpenter’s 1974 debut is a tiny, deliberately scruffy sci-fi comedy, while Ridley Scott’s The Martian is a massive studio survival movie built around Matt Damon trying to stay alive on Mars. One looks like it was assembled from whatever Carpenter and his collaborators could afford. The other turns a rescue mission into a global phenomenon. Yet both understand that being stranded in space is not always dramatic in the way movies typically promise.
