JOHN TRAVOLTA is heading to Europe on a promotional a tour to drum up business for Battlefield Earth, which has received some of the worst reviews in years.

His manager and producer, Jonathan Krane, insists the actor is very pleased with the film, which, he says, has already earned back the money it cost to make. Based on a science-fiction novel by Scientology founder L. RON HUBBARD, Battlefield Earth stars Travolta as Terl, the leader of alien invaders attempting to enslave the Earth.
