Since Eight Legged Freaks is making a run for the title- I thought it would be interesting to hear people's experiences with awful Science Fiction movies- what was the worst you ever saw and what made it so lame?
I have to say the worst I ever saw was:
Spacehunter: Adventures in the Forbidden Zone. Peter Weller in a post apocalyptic struggle against Michael Ironside to rescue a couple of babes in gold hot pants with Molly Ringwald along for the ride. MST3K all way.

Starship Troopers
Stupid plotline. Stupid ending. Just plain stupid.If Yoda is capable of kicking someone's @$$, imagine what a muppet could do!

No! How dare you! Starship Troopers is one of the best damn movies ever made! There's not a single flaw with it!

I'm with DeadEye Starshilp Troopers was a good movie, I'd have to say the worst Sci-fi movie I ever saw was probably The Last Starfighter, it was really stupid, just so QLD knows it was a tough decision between that and E.T.

Battlefield Earth was the worst Sci-Fi movie I've ever seen, didn't do L. Ron Hubbard's novel justice at all. The book was a hundred times better.

Brandon, you're right about Battlefield Earth. The book was 1,000 pages long, and the movie ends on about page 200. I'm serious.

Nightfall
IMHO, Nightfall was the worst SF movie I've ever seen. It was based on Asimov's wonderful short story but Asimov had his name removed from the credits it was so bad. The acting was TERRIBLE!
I'm afraid I enjoyed Starship Troopers and it seemed to follow the Heinlein juvenile line he produced.
I enjoyed the book Battlefield Earth a lot more than the movie...but the movie is still not as bad as Nightfall.......IMVHO!!0 /// /// F=MA~~~~~~~~~~~~

I don't recall how many pages exactly were in the novel, but I do know it was dam long, and took me a month to read during dead time at work. I agree the movie ends around page 200 though. LOLOriginally posted by DeadEye

Not including MST3k movies but I think THX-1138 was probably the worst Sci-Fi movie I've ever seen. What was Lucas smoking when he made this movie 'cause I want 2 of 'em.

Star Trek: The Motion Picture. Only because my 8 year old expectations were for action, action, action - and I got NONE. WHATSOEVER. I hated it so much, I've never watched it again. Maybe it wouldn't be so bad now, but I was ****$ed back then.
