Happy birthday David Hasselhoff (aka Prince Simon from Starcrash)!

What is there to be said about "The Hoff" that hasn't already been said? He joined the galaxy of MST3K stars via experiment #1106 Starcrash.

Starcrash itself is kinda famous in offbeat movie circles, being a striking piece of 70s Italian shoestring sci-fi... so I am embarrassed to admit that I've never been able to make it through the un-riffed version. And as for the MST3K edition? Um... what the hell, I don't have Netflix.
