So I've managed to acquire a copy of "Alien Hunter" with James Spader? If you know who he is then you have instantly dated yourself as 30+ years of age or a really young kid with a really weird taste in "whats hip".

Anyone wanna bet this will be a super huge waste of time? Bahahahaha I don't even think this is rated B I think it might fall under C or D.

Personally, my favorite "B" sci-fi movie is Pitch Black.

I feel like one of the most influential movies was (for good or bad) was The Matrix. Just the way the film was shot has changed how directors do special effects.

Ice Pirates

Best 'worst' sci-fi ever.

Yeah, it's a shame they never made any sequels to that movie.

Awesome movie. Also, Richard B. Riddick may be one of the greatest characters ever.

As for my pick for best worst sci-fi movie ever made...AvP. Amazing idea, Predators and Aliens looked fantastic, HORRIBLY done. I do not want puny humans as the focal point of my intergalactic clash of the titans.

Unless they are space marines.

I still cannot believe Riddicks name is Richard... "Dick" B. Riddick ...

His coolness factor just dropped about 10% in 3 seconds flat

You totally just dated yourself there. 35+ years old?

I remember seeing that movie and thinking what a great ummmmm... intimate scene... they had in the holo chamber thingy!!!

[Steel Wolf]

For me it has to be Space Mutiny.

[Ghost]

Event Horizon. We don't need eyes where we're going.

32 actually, saw it as a kid and rented it at "Movie Warehouse" a long time ago lol.

Robot Jox was another, I remember my mom coming into the room when the one female actress is topless in a shower scene... I wasn't allowed to rent that one again.

Ah the joys of VHS....

[Artimes]

crash and burn , was that a sequal to robot jox ?

[Grotonomus]

I'm not sure it exactly fits into the Sci-Fi Genre But I ABSOLUTELY LOVE!!! Big Trouble in Little China.
But for pure Sci-Fi it has to be the 5th Element.

Best worse sci-fi move definitely Ice Pirates. However if we are going for major cheese sci-fi I am putting out Star Crash (look it up if you dare)

Of course I know who James Spader is... why would I not? Granted the only places I could really instantly tell you I have seen him in is "Wolf" from early 90's (a movie I enjoyed), Stargate (the original movie) as... Daniel Jackson?... I like that movie to... a whole lot more then SG1 which I find to be pretty damn over rated... SG:A was allright, much better then SG1... but the only REALLY good series in that universe was the last one... "SG: Universe"... they where dumb to cancel it. I also remember him from being one of the main characters in Boston Legal that I watched for a bit, where the main character was played by William Shatner.

And as I watch in his list of stuff he has done, I recognize several other movies as well that I have seen. Tuff Turf (maybe), Pritty In Pink, Baby Boom, Mannequin (maybe), Wall Street, White Palace, True Colors, Supernova, aaaand Secretary... The reast I have either not seen, or have seen but don't remember.

So I guess I dated my self there somewhat... and true, I am 30+, 33 (and a handful of months) to be precise... but hey, it was not really like there was that much of a choice in tv during the 80's and large parts of the 90's, in Sweden back then (atleast for me)... you got what you got on tv, and that was that. You found some gems here and there, but most of it was barely dirt.

As for the best worst sci-fi... I don't know really... I don't tend to really remember the stuff I thought was bad... they are not worth the space to keep them in my memory...

[Mchawkeye]

you guys have a twisted idea of best worst movies...The Matrix is just a brillaint movie, There is nothing worst about it. Same with Damnation Ally and Event Horizon and Pitch Black and a like.
Whilst some of them were set firmly in the b-movie mold, they were far from the so bad they are good catagory.

I always like Outland with Sean Connery, Screamers with Peter Weller (Robocop!) and The Fortress with Conner MacLoud of the clan macLoud.
