Cheesiest space movie ever

[KILTED COWBOY]

Just saw the cheesiest space movie ever.
Iron Sky.
Premise at the end of WW2 the nazis secret space program sends surviving nazis to the moon where they colonize a base on the far side.
70 years later an American astronaut discovers it.
Now the nazis are strong enough to take over the world again.
It was so bad I couldn’t stop watching.
Interesting premise though if it was done right

 

[James Harechmak]

Best cheesy Nazi movie ever. Udo Kier at his best.

 

[Mugs914]

Worse than "First Spaceship to Venus"???

 

[Steve Shannon]

Worse than “The Green Slime?”

I was thinking Krull or Ice Pirates.

I was thinking Krull or Ice Pirates.

Those are pretty exquisitely awful, but it's really tough to top "Plan Nine from Outer Space". When I have seen that movie, I've been embarrassed for the people who were in it. The ultimate commentary on the movie was that Bela Lugosi was a pathetic junky by that time and died while the movie was being made.

6 year old Second Row wants to fight you on this, but 42 year old Second Row can only nod sadly in agreement.

I have to admit that I haven never actually watched "Plan 9". Unfortunately, I was a projectionist when Krull and Ice Pirates came out and had to watch them prior to presenting to the public.

Plan 9 is, indeed, one of the worst/cheesiest movies ever made, but I don't think of it as a space movie. Sure there are aliens, but nothing happens in space.

Darkstar.

Boiler: What's Talby's first name?
[pause as Doolittle thinks]
Lt. Doolittle: What's my first name?​

Some of it is deliberately funny, but I think only half.

 

[Steve Shannon]

I paid 35¢ to see that in a theatre!

Battlefield Earth

 

[BBowmaster]

The Stuff was pretty horrid. So was Revenge of the Teenage Vixens from Outer Space.

I liked Krull, though I don’t remember why. I vaguely recall a wedding scene that was neat. Though I could easily be confusing it with another movie.

Battlefield Earth

GASP!!! You must be a Suppressive Person.

 

[TDSapp]

So Iron Sky is a great Inde B-Movie. It has a BIG cult following, so much so that a sequel, Iron Sky: The Coming Race, was crowd funded and will be released soon.

Hmm . . . "Flash Gordon" or "Flesh Gordon" ?

[dr wogz]

Flash. While I remember flesh, I don't remember watching it..

'Ilsa of the SS' on the other hand..

I was thinking Krull or Ice Pirates.

I agree with you

 

[tball7]

Ice Pirates, Anjelica Houston(!) 1984..
8% on Rotten Tomatoes..

 

[tball7]

Yes !!
I vote Ice Pirates also..

[tball7]

But in a great way..

Don't forget about this one--

'Ilsa of the SS' on the other hand..

...and I thought I was the only sicko here....
Flesh Gordon is amazingly cheesey. The sequel, Flesh Gordon Meets the Cosmic Cheerleaders is even worse.
Now as for Iilsa, you need to be a special kind of (warped) person to watch those movies.
Iron Sky is certainly one of my guilty pleasures.

This thread inspired me to see what old movies I could watch on a plane trip to Singapore for work.

Ended up watching

• The Day the Earth Stood Still (1951)
  
• Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1956)
  
• Guardians of the Galaxy (2014)

Ok, two were sort of space related, but largely based on Earth.

 

[prfesser]

Journey to the Seventh Planet. Not quite limburger-cheesy but definitely gorgonzola-level.

I've also watched most (if not all) John Water's movies..
