Ömer the Tourist in Star Trek (1973)

3

This is a 1973 poster for Ömer the Tourist in Star Trek, widely regarded as the first Star Trek film adaptation. The work represents an early, localized reinterpretation of the Star Trek universe, blending the iconic science fiction franchise with regional cinematic culture and humor.

It holds significance as an unofficial yet historically notable “first Star Trek movie” presentation in poster form, reflecting how global franchises were adapted and reimagined in international visual media during the 1970s.

From IMDB:

A parody of "Star Trek: The Original Series", primarily featuring characters and story elements from the episodes "The Man Trap" and "What Are Little Girls Made Of?" In the 20th century, Ömer the Tourist is being forced into a shotgun wedding to the daughter of a mobster family. An attempt at escape has him accidentally time-traveling to the 23rd century, at the planet M-113. At about the same time, the USS Enterprise arrives at the planet to deliver supplies. Dr. Leonard McCoy has a seeming reunion with his ex-girlfriend Nancy, who lives on the planet. Meanwhile, the sinister scholar Professor Crater has discovered a number of androids. He claims them for himself, and he has a hidden agenda of his own.
