I thought that was The Howling II: Your Sister is a Werewolf!
(Another film Lee probably wants to forget.)

Ah yes... "A SyFy Channel Unoriginal Movie", as I like to call them.

I suppose an actor of Christopher Lee's caliber probably has many "nadirs" throughout his career. Actors of lesser caliber only have one, because it usually sinks them.
Of course, that doesn't explain Ashton Kutcher and Keanu Reeves....
You beat me to it, just beyond terrible. Not even any mileage in it from a "so bad it's good" viewpoint. So bad it stinks like a gallon of camel turd would be more apt.
The only reason why I'd still give the award to Laserblast is due to the much greater production values of Battlefield Earth. But yeah, it certainly was a stinker and probably a huge eyesore for Scientology. "Yes, your founder wrote a lot of crappy science fiction. Doesn't that shake your core beliefs just a bit?"
They Live! Fuck that noise.

Seriously. I mean, it's not like religions are crappy science fiction anyway, or anything like that.
Virus (1999). At the time, I was nineteen, was absolutely in love with Jamie Lee Curtis after having watched Halloween. I guess I also got a Star Trek: First Contact vibe off the movie, seeing as how it was supposed to be a ship crew fighting off mechanical monsters. Boy, was I wrong! This is the only movie I've been so bored with I've fallen asleep. I actually fell asleep in theaters, and I never do that. I thought this movie was stupid, and I sat through (awake) Batman & Robin, Lost In Space AND Godzilla. This movie was so abhorrently bad, I've never bothered to rewatch it.
Yeah, I think Godzilla (1998) was really bad, and enormously misguided, but it's not in the same league as the worst of the worst.
I'm sure there are a lot of sci fi and fantasy movies I loved as a little kid (just because they were stories that took place in far away lands or worlds far different than our own) that are probably total garbage but I didn't know better back then. Ones that come to mind:
Spacehunter: Adventures in the Forbidden Zone
Metalstorm: The Destruction of Jared-Syn
The Ice Pirates
Spacehunter: Adventures in the Forbidden Zone
Metalstorm: The Destruction of Jared-Syn
The Ice Pirates
Ice Pirates is awesome.
^ Yeah, I love, and own, Ice Pirates.
Of course, I own a lot of what could be considered bad Sci-Fi.
- Alien Armageddon & The Man With The Screaming Brain (both Bruce Campbell flicks from the Sci-Fi channel).
- Evil Alien Conquerors
- Killer Klowns From Outer Space
- 4 of the "Roger Corman Cult Classics" on blu-ray - Galaxy Of Terror, Humanoids From The Deep, Forbidden World & Starcrash (a Star Wars rip-off of sorts)
- Student Bodies, the 1981 horror/thriller spoof that probably cost a thousand dollars to make.
I also own all six of The Stranger series, the "sorta-kinda like Doctor Who but not so much" thing Colin Baker did in the early 90's, plus The Airzone Solution (Colin Baker, Peter Davison, Sylvester McCoy, John Pertwee - you'd think it would be better with that line-up).

Worst of the Worst, part II: The Revenge of Roger Corman!
Has anyone else seen Star Knight? I believe it has also been released under other titles, but I'm too lazy to look them up. From what I recall, it was about a medieval princess who falls in love with a visitor from outer space, while the locals mistake his spaceship for a dragon.
