Ard Vijn ScreenAnarchy "Stingray Sam" is a cleverly made loving tribute to the serials of old (be they "cowboy" or "spaceman" ones), and a darn' funny one too. Jan 15, 2020 Full Review Aaron Hillis GreenCine From rockabilly freakouts to an acoustic lullaby, the soundtrack here is diverse, catchy and easily the film's most exuberantly charming quality. Rated: 6/10 Nov 17, 2009 Full Review Scott Foundas L.A. Weekly In an American indie-film landscape, where a 500 Days of Summer is lauded for its "originality," McAbee should be a candidate for canonization. Somebody get this man an order for a second season. Sep 17, 2009 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member Cute little six-episode series (ten minutes per, so an hour total) following Stingray Sam as he saves a girl who was kidnapped. Two parts Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, one part They Might Be Giants, and one part Cowboy Bebop. A technical upgrade over director Cory McAbee's first film, but still maintains the campy charm he throws in. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Audience Member How can I resist this kind of quirky fun? I can't! Non-stop giddy packed into a single hour. I haven't had this kind of fun since David Byrne's "True Stories". Must see for indie freaks. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/23/23 Full Review Audience Member 98% Bloody mad, genius. Not as good as THE AMERICAN ASTRONAUT, but darn near sunny boy. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Audience Member Awesome, funny, and visually cool! Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/14/23 Full Review Audience Member totally bizarre space western musical -- I did not even know about this sub genre! And just the secret hand shake is worth watching this (it may be the reason for making this in the first place.) Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Audience Member WOWEEE!! It's back to the 50's TV space operas. Gotta love it. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Read all reviews
