Space, the final frontier. These are the voyages of the starship Boogaloo! The KFEB team plays a Boogaloo’ian Rhapsody as they dig into the cult classic Flash (aaa-aaah) Gordon from 1980, featuring soundtrack by the legendary band, Queen!
Flash Gordon is an American football player who, along with Dale Arden, are returning to New York City after a long vacation, when the plane they are passengers on crashes into the laboratory of Russian scientist Dr. Hans Zarkov. Both Flash and Dale become unwilling passengers onboard Zarkov’s rocketship as Zarkov sets a course for the planet Mongo. Arriving on Mongo, Flash and his companions find the planet is under the rulership of the evil Emperor Ming the Merciless and Ming is attacking Earth with natural disasters as he bids to destroy Earth. Realizing that Earth and the human race is in mortal danger, Flash decides to unite the kingdoms of Mongo and combine the forces of rivals Prince Barin and Prince Vultan to rescue Dale, who is to become Ming’s wife, and defeat Ming and save Earth from annihilation.
