If this were a perfect world, somebody would mash-up 'Masters of the Universe'(1987) and 'Slave Girls From Beyond Infinity'(1987)*.
The robots Vak and Krel, and the 'Alien Mutant' character all have the undeniable stamp of MOTU characters.
Eliminate Gwilidor altogether, and meld the Key with the musical instrument Zed plays:
"Its a holographic onyascillascopa...I'm not really that accomplished on it."
A whatasillascope? Did they mean a holophonor?
S.G.F.B.I. is probably the one of the best examples of a bad SF movie , with no redeeming factors.
It is not weird enough to be entertaining, not smutty enough to be stimulating (maintains a constant sliminess throughout), the sets are dull and lack impact, and the acting is lame.
The director avoided all of the entertaining cliches; no filters, no Evil Controlled Lighting, no weird behaviors by the characters. There is just no fun, not from the lingering headshot of a shadow-obscured head that ends the opening scene, to the we-will-explore-new-worlds vow at the ending.
Perhaps if savagely edited to a ten minute film it might be redeemable. Watch the prison cell breakout/spaceship theft, then skip to the PervBot 2000's arguing with each other over Venus rising listless from the waves, and then finish with the attempt to pull the blaster arm off of the 'Alien Mutant'....who simply is in the movie without explication, as if a perfectly normal detail of nature.
Perhaps it could be set to Rob Zombie's 'Living Dead Girl' and than 'Dragula', which would give a runtime of ~8 minutes, and would at least make a entertaining music video in the Dio - 'Holy Diver' mode.
...And the set designer for the trophy/banquet hall in S.G.F.B.I seems to have been inspired by 'Isle of the Hunter' out of Savage Sword of Conan.
*Should actually be called 'Slave Girls from Beyond Insanity'
