"From the vault of Captain Creepy"
I hadn't seen this in years so I recently watched Oblivion. A really bad, yet fun Full Moon Pictures release. A movie that probably ten people in the entire world would be interested in.
My quick synopsis for the movie.
When wayward slacker Zack Stone's father, the sheriff of Oblivion, is killed by the alien bad guy Red Eye, Zach returns home to take his fathers place and exact revenge, with the assistance of the cyborg deputy, his possible love interest lady from the General Store, Catwoman, and a wise and over talkative Indian that he rescued.
A science fiction western for the ages, but not quite Firefly.
Oblivion has a fun cast including Andrew Divoff, Julie Newmar, Issac Hayes, Meg Foster, and George Takei as a drunken barber who throws around not very subtle Star Trek references at every opportunity. The screenplay was written by the great Peter David, famed comic book and Star Trek writer.

This is a total B-Movie in every sense. There was a sequel made a few years later titled "Backlash, Oblivion 2." I have that movie also and maybe will rewatch it and write something about it soon. Action Lab Comics also just did a four issue mini series that follows the second movie in the continuity. I haven't read that yet but plan on checking it out soon. Good stuff if you are one of the ten.
