Plot Summary

A man named Jessup (played by David O’Hara) is hiding his true identity, while captured on a barren planet named Star Prison. Spending his days mining in perilous rivers for Fire Gems, which are a form of psychedelic drug minerals, he gathers together some allies and fights his way through other prisoners and ultimately battles Star Worms, a Dune-style monster.

The Lords of the Evil Empire use this mineral for their own pleasure, in a manner greatly reminiscent of the spices in the Dune franchise.
