Synopsis
Space Truckers (1996) is a sci-fi action-comedy you can watch online on iFILM, directed by Stuart Gordon and starring Dennis Hopper, Stephen Dorff, and Deb Mazar. Set in 2196, it drops into a future where interplanetary freight hauling is just another blue-collar gig — until it very much isn't.
John Canyon is one of the last independent haulers, squeezed out by a corporate monopoly. Desperate for a payday, he agrees to carry a sealed cargo to Earth with no questions asked, picking up a rookie co-pilot and a diner waitress looking for a way off the station. The route takes them through lawless space, and what's locked in the containers turns out to be exactly as dangerous as the people who hired Canyon hoped it would be. Hopper plays it with visible relish, Charles Dance camps it up as the villain, and the whole thing runs on the kind of cheerful low-budget energy that makes mid-90s genre films endearing rather than embarrassing.
