10 years of Flick Filosopher: when James Spader goes wrong

Bad science fiction? You’re soaking in it. From my review of Supernova:

Supernova is just like Alien, only not good. Following the standard issue SF plot No. 42, a bunch of people (1) out in the middle of nowhere on a spaceship (2) get picked off one by one by Something Evil (3). Here (1) is some sex-crazed paramedics, (2) is the hospital ship Nightingale, and (3) is a phallic-looking alien thingamajig.

Be a-scared -- be very a-scared. Or something.

To date, this and Batman and Robin are tied as my picks for worst movie of all time. I suppose I've probably seen worse movies, but in those cases I wasn't expecting anything good, while with these I was too young and naive to see the warning signs.

Also, for a while my dad used Supernova in his astronomy class, as an example of bad movie physics.
