Should you see it? I wouldn't waste the time.
This is a three episode arc of the television show "Rocky Jones, Space Ranger." Other titles in the series are: Beyond the Moon, Blast Off, Duel in Space, Forbidden Moon, Gypsy Moon, Inferno n Space, Magnetic Moon, Menace from Outer Space, Out of the is World, Robot of Regalos, and Silver Needle in the Sky.
This strikes me as having been written as a radio serial and then filmed, but as film's a visual medium, this is a huge mistake. Rocky Jones roams the galaxy, trying to keep his family safe from disasters and evil aliens, like the later show "Lost in Space," but without the intentional camp and even a smaller budget. In this film, one moon (actually an asteroid, I think) is going to collide with another moon, which seems like a tough problem for one guy to handle. There's an action scene cliffhanger every 28 minutes, but it's not very exciting.
