From the Dangerous Minds archives:

Turkish punk, new wave, no wave, psychedelia and hard rock vs. Turkish Star Wars (The Man Who Saved The World).

Turkish-made film Dünyayı Kurtaran Adam commonly known as “Turkish Star Wars” because of its notorious bootlegging of Star Wars film clips worked into the film. Released in 1982, Dünyayı Kurtaran Adam was created in Turkey caught in the midst of massive political upheaval. As a result, American-made films were not easily acquired and were often remade with a Turkish cast and setting. The musical soundtrack is entirely lifted from Western film hits of the time, primarily using Raiders of the Lost Ark. There are also scenes incorporating the music of Moonraker, Flash Gordon, Battlestar Galactica, Planet of the Apes and Disney’s The Black Hole.”
