What's the worst sci-fi/fantasy movie you've ever seen?

....gratuitous jingoism (enough with the flags in every important shot!)...

Ugh, that's freakin' Jerry Bruckheimer for ya. Any movie his grubby little hands touch seems to rocket off of the jingoism charts. He needs to stick with producing TV shows and stay the heck out of film.

Back in the early 80’s, I snuck in to see a horror movie that I’d heard a lot about. The movie was called The Howling. It was the best werewolf movie I had ever seen – maybe even to this day! Loved it!


In the mid-80’s there was a “sequel”, if you could call it that. Howling II…

Where do I begin with this one? Let’s just say that it was a confusing mixture between horror movie (and I use that term lightly) and soft-core porn.

I had to ask myself what Christopher Lee (yes, that Christopher Lee) was doing in this movie. :eek:

Let me put it this way, IIRC, the entire ending-credit sequence consists of a large-chested woman having her shirt ripped off over, and over, and over, and over – in a seemingly endless loop.

Thankfully Christopher Lee was not in any of those sorts of scenes. That would have been more that I could handle.
 

Worst sci-fi movie ever? Easily Tank Girl. I shudder at just remembering that awful, awful movie.

As for fantasy, I hate to say it, but yeah, the Dungeons & Dragons movie does indeed come to mind, all the more so because I'm a D&D player.

Hey, don't dis Tank Girl!
Sure the comic's better, and sure it doesn't make really much sense at times, but it's still way funny. The Cole Porterish musical scene at Liquid Silver is just too good... And I like Jet Girl, too.

Funnily enough I was just watching this on tape tonight. It's not a great movie, and evidently it suffered alot from studio mandated editing. But it's wild and funny. I've seen far worse.
 

Now that I think about it, what brief moments I caught of Barb Wire were probably worse than Highlander II....

I don't frelling care that Pamela '100% Fake' Anderson wears contacts!!!
 

I would certainly nominate Highlander II as one of the worst movies of all time, though it does hold a certain perverse fascination as it is so monumentally incoherent that it should be shown in film schools as an example of how not to make a movie. For god's sake, it literally contradicts it's self from one line to the next.

I thought Armageddon, though was an extremely entertaining movie. I laughed my ass off at it, though not during the scenes where you were supposed to laugh. The idiocies in the movie are simply too many to mention. But one of my favorites was the TWO gattling guns that they mounted on each of the rover vehicles. Were they afraid that Marvin the Martian was going to try and stop them with his Plutonium X-47 Neutron Detonator?
 

worst sci fi movie ever for me is this island earth. the only reason i sat through it is because it was on the MST3K movie. worst fantasy movie i've seen (besides DnD) has got to be Reign of Fire.
Christian Bale is a much better actor than that.

2 nights ago I rememebred something worse than Species II. We've got the DVD. It was Planet of the Apes.

GOD! That movie SUCKED! It was SO boring! And they changed the ending! It was a classic ending! But NOOOOO! They had to Make Abe Lincon into an ape, WHICH MAKES NO ****ING SENSE! Damn! That was one ****ing, **** film!

And for some reason, my housemates liked it.:rolleyes:

You do know that the end of the remake is basically the end of the book that the movies were made from? The only real difference is he lands in Paris instead of Washington, but considering that the author is French, that makes sense.

Hercules vs. the Moon Men...

Nope, the worst Sci-fi was the first Hercules film starring Lou Ferrigno. Very low budget and total camp, awful dialogue, a MUST SEE for any bad movie night. You can skip the sequel that they made, it had a higher budget and isn't nearly as fun to laugh at.
