“This is disjointed, tedious and every bit as bad as its reputation.” – David Blieiler, TLA Video & DVD Guide

“A cross between Star Wars and the smell of ass.” – Jon Steward, The Daily Show

Battlefield Earth. Probably the worst film ever made, at least in terms of films that actually took themselves seriously and were trying to be actual blockbuster hits. A film so bad the screenwriter actually issued a public apology for his work.Read More »Battlefield Earth – Craptastic Cinema!
