"Flash Gordon" is a science fiction film based on the 1930s comic strip of the same name. The film, known for its campy and colorful style, follows Flash Gordon, a football player, who along with his companions, is hurled into space where he battles the tyrannical ruler Ming the Merciless to save Earth. The movie is celebrated for its unique visual style and memorable characters.

The soundtrack for "Flash Gordon" is performed by the rock band Queen, making it distinctive in the realm of film music.
