Worst Sci-Fi movie of all time

Alien Contamination 1981 A very bad alien ripoff movie .:)
 
The Dark 1979 staring William Devane and Cathy Lee Crosby . A very boring and bad film.
 
The only sci-fi movie I ever walked out on was Bats (1999, Lou Diamond Phillips). I knew it was going to be bad, but I thought it would be enjoyable bad (like, for example, Eight-Legged Freaks). It was just plain awful. Plus, Fight Club was still playing, and since I was already there...
 
:LOL:I just now remembered an absolutely terrible one: The Flying Saucer's trailer showed the title object, then a woman screaming. But the film was not as expected; the woman screamed because a bear was running towards her! The saucer turned out to be a real USAF creation; among other strange things, a plane with wings in the shape of a disc. It was not the least bit thrilling. :poop:
 
The Horror of Party Beach 1964. Scientists and young beach partiers vs atomic mutant monsters from the sea . This one did get the Mystery since 3000. Except for the closing credits, This film has no redeeming qualities whatsoever. :eek:
 
The Fly 2 1989. very lacking compared to its 1986 predecessor.

The other one that immediately comes to mind is that Justin Timberlake one about people running out of time to live.

Well, the saving grace of that is it has Amanda Seyfried wearing very short mini-skirts and six-inch stiletto heels while running for her life through 3/4s of the movie, which at least gave me some distraction from the dialogue.
 
Speaking of giant ants movies, "Empire of the Ants" with Joan Collins; like a very bad 50s movie made in 1977.

You know -- I loved this movie in college. I probably watched it a dozen times.

About two months ago, I gave it another watch, and I was really not impressed. I hardly think it's the worst scifi film of all time, but I no longer think it's good.
 
The Green Slime might be the worst sf movie I have ever actually watched. My high school mass media class had to watch a movie(s). It was double-billed with a Western, and I had not interest in Westerns, but thought the Western was better, as I recall... this would have been around 1971.
 
Gee, Green Slime, in the theatre, in 1968, was pretty good, compared to a hundred others that come to mind. You are fortunate and wise ExT... let us fools handle the real rubbish. Even reading a capsule description of some of them can be damaging. )
 
SF movie - SF movies have their own criteria and etcetc. BAD movies are just bad, and they are pouring out like never before. TV is worser, as always.
'Worst SF' means sobadit'sgood-syndrome, an acquired taste. Like Starcrash, which is somewhat legendary for some reason, can't quite remember what... but, that means we have to watch it again!

Starcrash is a treasure. And weirdly terrible as it is - I watch it once or twice a year, sometimes in company - there are far worse films out there. Starcrash does have a weird internal (very van Vogtian) dream logic of its own. The guys who made it did end up make an entertaining film for not much money - which is more than can be said for the perpetrators of megabuck abominations like The Adventures of Pluto Nash.

In a 100 years when standards of film excellence have become blurred and forgotten, Pluto Nash will be hailed as a scifi Classic. :whistle::D
