This Turkish movie is the first motion picture on StarTrek. Although the story is the same as the classic "man-trap" episode, film inserts a Turkish man "aka. Turist Omer" into the story. Turist Omer is a funny poor Turkish guy wýthout a job and wýth a unique Turkish way of seeing things. His thoughts about the startrek universe makes a Turk (like me) have a lot of fun (eg. he warns Spock about the police control while Spock talks about the speed of the Enterprize). Unfortunately all jokes are Turkish type and very hard for a foreigner to have much fun as Turks did. However it is the most funniest movie a have ever watch and a must see for a Turkish movie fun.

The advantage to having seen every episode of the original Star Trek series is that when some one lifts the plot of three or four of the episodes and turns them into a Turkish comedy it becomes very easy to follow. For those without a running knowledge of episode titles this mainly the salt monster episode redone as a feature with the inclusion of a few other episodes thrown in for good measure. However this is not just a straight Star Trek movie, rather its part of a series of comedies staring a character named Omer. This makes for a strange mix of wild comedy and straight science fiction drama.

Amazingly its nowhere near as bad as you might think. Actually its quite good. The Star Trek lifts come off more as a well done fan film than any sort of bad movie. Personally I wish this was translated into English so that I could have some idea what was being said during the comedic verbal exchanges between Omer and Spock.I get and can laugh at the physical humor but since I can't speak the language the verbal sparring is lost.

It you're a Trek fan see this movie. If you're a science fiction fan give it a shot. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised.

Note to those who say this is a bad movie with bad acting and bad special effects- you have to admit that the original series, as charming and as nostalgic as we feel towards it, is about the same quality as this film on every level. You can't honestly think that the original episodes are more than marginally superior to this film, especially in the acting.

This movie is a Turkish copy of the famous Star Trek. It a funny movie about a guy that gets transfered from the weddingtable to the Enterprise. He visit different places and the captain and Spock gets anoyed. Its a humorfilled movie. If you ever get a chance to see it...please then see it. Its a movie that you can walk away from and still have that funny feeling inside you.....

This is a professional made Star Trek imitation with Turkish sense of humor.

Turkish Star Trek ?

In the seventies Marvel comics and Italian comics were very popular in Turkey. Turkish movie producers saw that they could earn some money from this opportunity. They made a lot of quick and low budget comic's movies as superman,zagor,phantom,captan America etc . All these movies had a simple story and bad casting. But this movie is different. First of all the production company was a powerful movie company. They knew what Turkish people liked. They knew that Turkish people like Star Trek. They knew also that Turkish people like Turist Omer character. If they could bring these two items together than the movie would be a great success.

Star Trek was a hit in Turkey. There were nobody on streets when Turkish TV was broadcasting Star Trek.

Turist Omer was a character played by Sadri Alisik. This character made this actor famous. You can compare with Charlie Chaplin.

It was a success. They earned a lot of money and they also sold this movie to foreign countries like Germany (where 3 million Turkish society living). The story is borrowed from an episode of Star Trek. Turist Omer was buzzed from earth to a planet by a mad doctor.

I can recommend this movie to all Star Trek fans and also to everyone who likes cult and foreign movies. If you like this movie try than also Yilmayan Seytan. .

This was apparently made by some resourceful Trek fans in Turkey around the same time as the Star Trek animated series, during the Trek drought of the seventies between the original series (ended in '69) and the 1st Trek movie in '79. One can look at it as a lost episode of the original series, composed of Trek bloopers, discarded scenes, and an overabundance of the ridiculous. It begins with the standard Trek visuals of the Enterprise zooming about in space, but as if shot thru a red filter, and quite blurry. This also uses the standard Trek background music and FX sounds from the sixties show (the music, however, doesn't always fit the action in the scene). Unfortunately, my version doesn't have an English vocal track or subtitles, but I could figure out within a few minutes that this aimed for a remake/parody of "The Man Trap" episode of the original show, featuring that salt-sucking monster (since that was the first episode of the original series to air, this makes me wonder if they intended to remake later episodes - next would have been "Charlie X"). This comic version also included some androids, including a male model-type dressed only in a loin cloth. Overall, it's an intriguing precursor to other Trek spoofs such as the famous "Saturday Night Live" episode with John Belushi.

About 15 minutes in, the plot abruptly diverts to some Turkish dude from present times suddenly whisked (beamed away) from his low rent (shotgun?) wedding into the Trek adventure, where he interacts with all the main characters - kind of a wish fulfillment dream of all the Turkish fans, I guess. In the meantime, the salt creature takes the identity of several characters, though the way it sucks the salt out is portrayed a bit differently from the original episode. The costuming accurately copies that of the original series, with the same style uniforms. This also reminded me just how sexy those mini-skirted uniforms were on the female crew members - there's a few of 'em here - in one amusing scene where they train their 'phasers' on the visitor. Check out, also, the hairdo emulating the Yeoman Rand character - trippy. The sets also attempt to copy the Enterprise interior, though less successfully; the exteriors in the ruins are better realized. The humor really kicks in during the last half, with the salt creature terrorizing the tourist and other action stuff copying scenes from the "Arena" episode and, even better, the Kirk-Spock fight from "Amok Time." The scenes with the multitude of loin-clothed androids is a bit too bizarre, but the conclusion is appropriately amusing. The whole thing's just over 70 minutes long on my version. Maybe this helped in getting a new Trek series greenlit, then the motion picture, when it was realized that the whole planet was desperate for new Trek.

This is surely one of the biggest cult of Turkish movie history and also one of the biggest of science-fiction genre too. Although you would miss some great jokes if you are not familiar with turkish culture, you wouldn't miss the classic cult dialogues between Mr.Spak and Turist omer.

Try to catch this one!

This movie is a masterpiece among Turkish movies in the sense that it may be the first example of making fun of another movie or TV show. Foreigners will probably not understand that the movie solely intents to make you laugh, and that Turist Omer(Alisik) makes fun of and teases all that legendary Star Trek characters.Sadri Alisik is a true legend in Turkey, not a dirty looking 'Muslim' guy, who has great talent, not only in physical comedy but also verbally. The movie has no 'religious' motives, Omer's transfer to Enterprise is a coincidence which we can see any movie, anyway God won't be any peculiar in a science-fiction, either. opening hands and praying to God is gesture in Turkey which has no religious meaning. As it can be anticipated, you must be a Turk or good Turkish speaker to understand the simple but powerful humor in this movie. Insulting a dead legend and millions of people due to trendy "Islamfobia" and poor understanding is not fair. Here, I am saying that if you do not speak Turkish or have a Turkish friend to assist you through the movie, do not watch it, otherwise you will fall in the pit in which "one of the North American comments" is, the pit of prejudice..

Late Note: It is true that there are stolen scenes in the movie, then SUE the dead man. What could they do to show a spaceship in space? And do not forget that the movie is a free advertisement of the TV-series..

It's scary to think that this movie is considered by some to be "a masterpiece among Turkish movies"; that says a lot more about the state of Turkish cinema than I'd care to know. But the film, more commonly known as "Turkish Star Trek" in English-speaking countries, is one of the most enjoyable of the many Star Trek spoofs in circulation.

The viewer is treated to an outsider's view of the Star Trek universe, as a Turkish slapstick comedian (Turist Ömer) escapes a shotgun wedding thanks to the timely intervention of the starship Enterprise. Borrowing shamelessly from several classic Star Trek episodes (particularly Star Trek's first broadcast episode "The Man Trap") an ability to speak Turkish is not necessary for Star Trek fans to be able to follow the plot, although it may well baffle non-Trekkies. In fact, picking out the various homages (and deciding which characters are being depicted by the actors) may well be one of the most enjoyable aspects.

Interspersed with the familiar scenes are more bizarre sequences, involving a mad scientist (a dead ringer for Alfred Ryder, who played Dr. Crater in "The Man Trap"), as well robots in loincloths, bikini-clad alien girls, and some of the most hilariously bad pre-digital special effects ever committed to film.

It is probable that the dialog makes some sense of the goings-on, but until a subtitled version emerges (don't hold your breath), you're better off to just sit back with some wise-cracking buddies, pass the Romulan ale, and enjoy the show.

This movie,in my opinion,is even better then "Dünyayý Kurtaran Adam".Every moment of this movie is funny,from begining to the end.Especially the dialog between Ömer and Spock is really fun.Every Star Trek fan should watch this movie,at least just to see the excellent Turkish version of Mr.Spock-KabaKulak!

Most people describe this movie as a cheap Star Trek clone with a Turkish guy in it. Actually, Omer is the protagonist here so it's not a Star Trek movie. It's a Turist Omer movie in Star Trek setting. And like all of the Turist Omer movies, Sadri Alisik is the only thing good about it. He was an extremely talented actor. Maybe he was even better than most of his contemporaries in Hollywood. But remember,he was born in Turkey, therefore never had the chance to do what his Western comrades did. Yes, it's not a very good movie but blaming Sadri Alisik for that is just unfair. Producers knew anything with Sadri Alisik in it would make money, so the writing is extremely weak. Incredibly time and culture specific jokes do not help, either. Not for foreign audience at all. Unless you love Star Trek and have to see everything related to it.

Without a doubt this film is the funniest Turkish film ever made. I wish you guys knew Turkish so you could understand the funniest scenes like Turist Omer breaking down the main computer by asking him silly questions, or getting on Spock's nerves. Many people think this is like "Dunyayi Kurtaran Adam (aka Turkish Star Wars)" but it's not. Dunyayi Kurtaran Adam was also OK but it was a ripoff and not intended to be a comedy. "Turist Omer Uzay Yolunda (Turkish Star Trek)" on the other hand is asking the question "what if a Turk was among the crew of Star Trek". Another great thing about the movie is, especially Captain Kirk and Mr Spock look and act exactly like in the TV series, not a single exaggeration. Love this movie. It's the funniest Turkish movie ever made, and Sadri Alisik is the funniest Turkish actor ever lived.

1. The character "Turist Ömer / Omer the Tourist" played by Sadri Alisik was first introduced as a sidekick in the movie "Helal Olsun Ali Agbi", starring Ayhan Isik. The character became very popular and 7 films were shot for this character between 1964-1973. This movie is the last one. 2. The 7 Turist Ömer movies are: - Turist Ömer / Omer the Tourist (1964) - Turist Ömer Dümenciler Krali / King of the Con-Men (1965) - Turist Ömer Almanya'da / In Germany (1966) - Turist Ömer Arabistan'da / In Arabia (1969) - Turist Ömer Yamyamlar Arasında / Among Cannibals (1970) - Turist Ömer Boga Güresçisi / The Bullfighter (1971) - Turist Ömer Uzay Yolunda / Star Trek (1973) 3. Star Trek was very popular in Turkey at the time. Because of that, the crew of USS Enterprise were played by the dubbing artists of the show in Turkish TV channel TRT, which was the only channel at the time. 4. The adventure of USS Enterprise in this film (the story with the salt-monster) was taken from an episode of the original show. 5. The film contains multiple Turkish jokes. They're mostly shown as the funny clash between Omer's humorous character and Spock's rationality.

A surprisingly efficient Turkish spoof of the popular television series, complete with the Turkish versions of all the characters you know and love - Kirk, Spock, McCoy, even Uhura. The only person missing is Mr Sulu! Complete with ripped-off music, really poor quality clips of the Enterprise itself, and a plot stolen from one of the earlier episodes of the series, this Turkish comic yarn retains interest throughout, mainly due to the exploits of that lovable rogue Ömer the Tourist. As played by Sadri Alisik, Ömer the Tourist was a character who apparently appeared in a series of five similarly comic movies as he got himself into many scrapes.

Here, Alisik starts off being forced into an arranged marriage when he is saved in the nick of time by being teleported to an alien planet by a mad doctor. From then on, he becomes embroiled in a plot involving the Enterprise and its crew, the aforementioned mad doctor and his gold-skinned bikini girls, a hideous monster, an alien shape-shifter, and an army of robot musclemen who stomp around in loincloths like extras from a cheap peplum flick and have circuit boards jutting from their backs. Yep, this film is certainly one packed with incident, which is why it is so enjoyable! Much of the comedy comes from the bumbling Alisik, who is actually very good in his character part, as he acts as the eyes and ears of the audience, shrieking at the monsters and exploring and examining weird futuristic objects. There's also a lot of verbal sparring with the distinctly unamused Mr "Spak", who comes complete with pointy ears and Vulcan Deathgrip! A running joke involves Alisik pretending to shake hands with Spak only to move his hand away at the last moment - it's that kind of simple, light hearted, even childish humour that makes this movie appealing.

Although this has a bigger budget than most Turkish fantasy movies, that isn't saying much. The best thing about this are the sets of the Enterprise; although tacky, they're quite true to the original television show. Much fun is had from the shoddiness of the rest of the effects, like a torch which is made out to be an alien device, doors which close with the sound of somebody going "whoosh!", and a transporter which causes people to be covered in white dots before the camera is faded out! There's also a really cheap laughing plant which is actually just some guy's hand sticking through a table! There are two monsters of note in the movie - the first, a rampaging creature whom Kirk fights in the desert, which is cheap-looking but fun. The second is an alien shape shifter (the shape shifting achieved through cheap but cool special effects) which eventually reveals its true nature as a shaggy-haired Yeti-type creature - causing Alisik to run shrieking from the room! The comedy conclusion sees Alisik returned to his wedding, with additional pointy ears and Vulcan Deathgrip - much to the consternation of the assembled! The acting is fine, and even if the characters don't look like their counterparts, at least they act like them. Although William Shatner and Leonard Nimoy won't be losing sleep over these imitators they'll do for now. This movie is a must-see for those cult fans looking for an example of Turkish cinema, as this is a great place to start; very easy to follow with plenty of weirdness and colourful characters.

Turkish filmmaker Hulki Saner brings the highly popular "Ömer the Tourist" film series to a clumsy conclusion by turning Sadri Alışık's beloved comic creation into a self-insert anti-Sue for this po-faced re-enactment of the first broadcast classic Star Trek episode "The Man Trap" with results as unimpressive as a PVC-clad papier-mâché-headed Gorn.

When an Enterprise red shirt is murdered while on an away mission the culprit transports a bumbling Turkish hobo from his shot gun wedding to act as a scapegoat, but Kirk and co. fail to fall for the ruse and Ömer the Tourist joins them on the hunt in the uninspired set-up for this clumsy parody of series achieving great popularity in Turkey at the time.

Sadri Alışık is on top form in his swansong performance in the role with quick fire Turkish gags and wordplay with superb support from straight man Erol Amaç as Mr. Spak but the too are all too often eclipsed by Cemil Şahbaz, Ferdi Merter, Kayhan Yıldızoğlu and the rest of the cast as they struggle to keep to the original script.

The filmmakers seem for the most part to have forgotten they are making a comedy as they plough through a sub-standard re-enactment of the original, replete with orange tinted ripped-off effects, which relegates the star to little more than an interfering nuisance as they build up to a frenetic conclusion which throws in scenes from other classic episodes.

Turkey provides some fantastic locations for the planet scenes which the makers of the original could barely dream of but in all other respects the production values fall short calling into question the whole rationale for the re-enactment which overwhelms the comedy elements and leaves the feeling that Sadri Alışık deserved better.

"You see captain; an illogical creature."

Last of the turist omer series of movies. (5 movies of local traditional comedy) Movie was made when star trek was airing on tv. Omer the tourist is a quick minded non wealthy guy of 1973 trying to escape from the wedding desk when by chance beamed up to the Enterprise mistakenly through time. Afterwards the story is taken from 1966 original series 'the man trap' with the comic interferences by turist omer. I was 10 years old and had fun that time. It's low level childish movie for today's standards and nothing significant to tell about.
