Space Boy is a 1973 short science fiction film directed by Austrian artist Renate Druks. It was written by Florence Marly and featured music from electronic music pioneers Bebe and Louis Barron.[1][2] It's rumored that Frank Zappa drummed on the soundtrack.[3] The film was nominated for a Grand Prix at the 1973 Cannes Film Festival.[4]
Stuart Thomson plays the titular Space Boy and writer Florence Marly is the cosmic seductress Valana.[5]
Space Boy was intended as a sequel to Curtis Harrington's 1966 science-fiction horror film, Queen of Blood, also featuring Marly, and itself based on an earlier Soviet film.[3] In 2009, Space Boy was remade by Columbus, Ohio, filmmaker, Mike Olenick.[6]
