The yetis in Río

The American Astronaut

(2001)
Yes, what did Samuel Curtis (writer-director-composer Cory Abee) do that Professor Hess (Rocco Sisto) can't forgive?

This may or may not be the lowest-budget space sci-fi since the days of Ed Wood, and it may or may not be the best space-cowboy flick at least since Star Wars, but it is certainly the best cowboy space musical with a homoerotic subtext (though it's fair question whether the text is actually sub-).

A rare Cheeseblabbery guarantee: rent this, and if you don't like it, let me know, and your next rental, or your next month of Netflix, is on me.
