[laplata]

Thanks for posting the list.

[Fiji Hill]

I almost walked out of the theater when I saw Alien. I also didn’t like 2001: A Space Odyssey. It was said that you had to read the book to understand it, which was a cop-out on the part of the movie maker.

[kosciusko51]

Too much “recency” bias in that list.

[Steve_Seattle]

Thanks for printing the list. The link was a mess and locked up my computer. I’d say only about 15 of those would be on my list. I would have included The Time Machine, both versions of The War of the Worlds, Target Earth, The Attack of the Crab Monsters, and a few others.

[Chainmail]

There are some good ones among the dreck - but cartoons? Godzilla? Sheesh!

[Ruy Dias de Bivar]

62. The Rocky Horror Picture Show. Never been able to set through this. Too faggy for me.

90. Dark City. One of my favorites.

WHAT! No Ray Harryhausen movies!
No Beast from 20 Thousand Fathoms?
No Earth vs the Flying Saucers?
No 20 Million miles to earth?
No original INVADERS FROM MARS(1953)
No One Million B.C.(1940)
No One Million Years B.C.? I only watch it for the dinosaurs. Wore out a VCR tape rewinding and rewinding and rewinding....Honest!

DUMP the cartoons shows! Give us THESE!

[Texas resident]

I would like to add “Killer clowns from outer space”.

I didn’t see Invaders From Mars on that list!

Tarzoon, Shame of the Jungle isn’t on the list - bogus. And Andromeda Strain should be much higher.
