Reception
The film was first screened at the NatFilm Festival in Copenhagen on 23 February 1993, and was screened at the Stockholm Queer Film Festival in 2006.In the 2019 book It Came from Something Awful, Dale Beran described the film as a "queer-interest B movie in the hyper-transgressive tradition of John Waters" that appealed to an audience of "nerdy white boys" who liked the concept of blaxploitation. The film was used in a recruiting campaign by the internet troll group Gay Nigger Association of America in the 2000s, who took their name from the film.
In 2024 an internet meme relating to the movie gained popularity, where people would convince others to search the phrase "what space movie came out in 1992" or "space movie 1992". This would return results of the movie's IMDb and Wikipedia pages. The shock value of the title is the main purpose of the meme, not the contents of the movie.
