"SSSSSSS," worst SF movie ever? -- on Canadian TV now
Edited on Fri May-14-04 10:56 PM by Newsjock
Flip 'em over to Space, kids. Watch the cute virile guy turn into ... a snake! There's still time to catch the chilling final transformation.

It makes "10.5" look like a work of art.

1. There are some worse ones...
One of them made by the Film Board Of Canada.

I don't know the name of it. It was on TV once in the 80s at like 3 AM. In keeping with Canada's French language requirements, every alternate line of dialog was French! And sometimes the same character would deliver lines in both English and French.

And there was a LOT of dialog.

It was painful to watch.

2. I've Seen That One...
Pretty lame. But if I remember correctly, the guy is pretty hot.

4. I remember being pretty damn freaked out when Dirk Benedict...
discovered Strother Martin's previous "experiment" at the circus sideshow.

And a young Heather (Mrs. Robert Urich) Menzies naked? I can think of worse things to have to watch.

5. Well, don't forget "Bug" and "Frogs" and "Cats"
Edited on Fri May-14-04 11:38 PM by nu_duer
At least I think that last one was named "Cats" - a movie about, what else - evil "activist" cats.

SSSSS or whatever, was pretty bad, if it is the one I saw way back when, but it had a lot of company.

What was that one with the underwater Nazis slowly emerging on to the shore of some island where some mad scientist and a few castaways were holed up? Urgh!
