Mutant on the Bounty

“His luggage was lost, his face was mutilated. Things like that can happen when you travel standby in outer space.”

Synopsis

The crew of an interplanetary commercial freighter beams aboard a now horribly mutated saxophone player who has been adrift in space for over twenty years. He starts to get along with the crew, and very close with an alluring journalist. But that's when two criminals are beamed aboard, taking the ship hostage.
