A worst scifi movie ever

[yevaud]

The book was hysterical as well. Read it before the movie came out.<br /><br />"Ok, bomb...now let's talk."<br />"Very well...but you only have 29 minutes and 32 seconds remaining."<br />"Ah. Why do you want to explode?"<br />"It's my reason detre'...29 minutes ans 6 seconds, by the way." <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p><em>Differential Diagnosis:  </em>"<strong><em>I am both amused and annoyed that you think I should be less stubborn than you are</em></strong>."<br /> </p> </div>

The worst science fiction movie in the world -- without a doubt -- would have to be Battlefield Earth. Way too much attitude -- way too little plot -- way too much unintended laughter from the theater crowd. <img src="/images/icons/rolleyes.gif" /><br /><br />Although a contender would be The Adventures of Pluto Nash. Awful Eddie Murphy film from a couple or three years back -- the one thing Murphy's ever done filmwise to cause him to hang his head in shame.<br /> <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <font color="#0000ff"><strong>Just tell the truth and let the chips fall...</strong></font> </div>

Every Sci-fi original, especially the ones with Dean Cain.

Rhodan - Mission Stardust sounds kinda cool – it must be if you named yourself after the lead character Monsieur Rhodan!<br /><br />ContraCommando - I agree with you on Alien Resurrection – absolute rubbish, with a David Attenborough narration by the guy in the slime at the end, in case the audience didn’t know what was happening. A lesson in how to kill classic movies (1&2) with bad sequels!<br /><br />Lampblack - I agree Battlefield Earth was awful, ranks alongside Mars Attacks as one of the worst. I also thought the Mars film with Val Kilmer was atrocious. Did no one in the cast or crew (500 people) know what a nematode was????<br /><br />Yevaud - Krull made Liam Neeson’s career man – great movie!<br /><br /><font color="orange">My 1000th Post!</font><br /> <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> </div>

Red Planet wasn't too bad, well, at least it had a few good moments. Mind you I did see it after Mission to Mars which was truly awful.<br /><br />Unoriginal.<br /><br />Rediculous idea.<br /><br />Poor script.<br /><br />Bad acting.<br /><br />Excruciating sound track.<br /><br />Lame special effects.<br /><br />Stupidly jingoistic.<br /><br />Nasty rascist subcurrent.<br /><br />Cliched.<br /><br />Really pathetic science.<br /><br />There is bad silly (King Kong), Bad stupid (Mars attacks), and Bad awful - this one.<br /><br /><br />By the way, did I say how much I did not like it?<br /><br />Jon <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p><em>Whether we become a multi-planet species with unlimited horizons, or are forever confined to Earth will be decided in the twenty-first century amid the vast plains, rugged canyons and lofty mountains of Mars</em>  Arthur Clarke</p> </div>

Robocop 3. It was low budget crap with a bad plot and a stupid concept. It was nothing like the original, which was fairly unique. <br />

 

[jmilsom]

<img src="/images/icons/smile.gif" /> I gather then that you would derive a great pleasure in perhaps setting fire to a pile of “Mission to Mars” videos? I wonder if there has ever been a good SciFi film made that depicts Mars?<br /><br />Do SDC people ever get together? We should arrange a viewing night for the three worst Sci-Fi films. Get an old TV set that we can throw things at. Conclude the evening with a ritual disembowelling of the video tapes! <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> </div>

What of Queen of Outer Space, and Abbott and Costello go to Mars? <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p><font color="#ff0000"><strong>TPTB went to Dallas and all I got was Plucked !!</strong></font></p><p><font color="#339966"><strong>So many people, so few recipes !!</strong></font></p><p><font color="#0000ff"><strong>Let's clean up this stinkhole !!</strong></font> </p> </div>

Black Hole.<br /><br />I could give you some of the reasons why it was so bad, but then I would have to think about them, and I I have been struggling to suppress those memories ever since.

"Yevaud - Krull made Liam Neeson’s career man – great movie! "<br /><br />Oh my God, Liam Neeson was in that movie!?! <br /><br />The Glaive!!! The Black Fortress!!! The Cyclops getting squished in a sliding door!!! <br /><br />::Grin::<br /><br />Now, I have to really say that I think I have found the worst Sci-fi movie, EVER. <br />It has GOT to be "Alien Intruder" With Billy Dee Williams as Cdr. Skyler and a couple of painted-up milk cartons hanging from fishing line as the spaceships in the film.<br />God. Awful.<br /><br />http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0106244/

 

[rhodan]

<i>Rhodan - Mission Stardust sounds kinda cool – it must be if you named yourself after the lead character Monsieur Rhodan!</i><br /><br />Ah, yes, but not based on the film, but on the book series. Pulp fiction surely, yet entertaining for its scope and imagination. <br />

[contracommando]

Star Trek: Insurrection<br /><br />The plot of the movie is totally ridiculous. The crew of the Enterprise revolts against the chain of command in order to save 600 people from being removed from their planet (one that wasn‘t originally even theirs) , but in the process they give up the source of eternal life for the federation. If I recall correctly, in a ST:TNG TV episode, Picard was willing to forcibly remove a few hundred American-Indians from their homes in order to settle a border dispute with the Cardasians. Why didn’t he and his crew mutiny against Star Fleet in order to help them? Maybe because there wasn’t a beautiful, young seductress there waiting to tempt the good captain. <br />

More: <br /><br />1) The arrival 2<br />2) Starship troopers 2<br />3) Gyver 2: Dark Hero (and the original starring Mark Hamil).<br />4) Mortal Kombat: Annihilation<br />5) Terminator 3 <br /><br />Basically, just about any sequel, with few exceptions, to a good sci-fi movie. <br />

Alien Apocalypse with Bruce Campbell. I think that the plot was something like: several astronauts go up into space, get caught in a time warp, and plunge back to Earth thousands of years later (rip off of “Planet of the Apes“). Only when Bruce’s character comes back, the Earth is run by giant termite looking things that have enslaved humanity, forcing people to work at saw-mills, harvesting wood for their termite overseers. His co-astronaut, played by Xena’s Gabriel, helps him in his crusade to destroy the alien termites and their wood factories. <br /><br />This movie was painful to watch, which isn’t surprising considering that it ran on the sci-fi channel.<br /><br />Although, I loved Bruce in “Army of Darkness.” <br /><br /><br /><font color="orange">Shop smart, shop S-Mart</font>/safety_wrapper>

<i> Gabriel (Rene' O'Connor) is a babe.</i> <br /><br />Yeah, I remember that hot-tub scene she did with Xena early in the series. Maybe that’s why so many men watched show? <br /><br /><br /><br /><font color="orange">Shop smart, shop S-Mart</font><br />

There were two new versions of "War of the Worlds" that were released in 2005. <br /><br />The new "War of the Worlds" directed by Timothy Hines has to be the worst movie ever. It was set in 1898 and used the actual dialogue from the book. Absolute stinker.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br />

i'd have to agree with you on insurrection.<br /><br />and contracommando...that's funny. i forgot all about that game. so funny.<br /><br /> <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> </div>

This is a toss up. Masters of the universe. I am not sure if it the worst or not as it was cringeworthy but hillarious at the same time. Seeing evil Lynn was through the streets of LA and no one even notices. It was so bad it was good. Oh did i mention a little gay. <br /><br />http://videodetective.com/home.asp?PublishedID=569
