The host and robots are the peanut gallery that are seen silhouetted at the bottom of the movie. They are like those annoying people in the cinema that insist on loudly making comments and talking all through the movie. These movies are so bad that you don’t mind. This ran as a series so it was like being with friends trashing bad movies. Like with friends some comments are funny but its hit and miss. There is some short spaceship nonsense before, during the break and after the movie. Don’t expect Star Trek sets because this is low budget and not meant to be taken seriously. These movies were taken from different periods of the show so you will see changes in the cast. The Manhunt in space movie was made from part of an old TV series. If you actually interested in seriously watching these movies then you will be disappointed. If you just want some fun nonsense to watch with friends you have found it.
