Gremloids

Possibly one of, if not the worst Sci-Fi films of all time...that and Starcrash.

A clear parody of Star Wars, Gremloids follows Lord Buckethead (I'm not kidding) and his quest to dominate the peoples of the universe.

I don't need to say much about the film, but the stand out scene has to be where our heroes are chased, on flying shopping trolleys, through a supermarket. Truly inspired film making.

Oh and by the way, the poster makes the film look much better than it really is. Imagine you'd tried to make a science fiction film in the 1980's on a budget of £3.50...I give you Gremloids!

Fun Fact: Lord Buckethead stood as an independent in the UK general elections in both 1988 and 1992, against Maggy Thatcher and John Major...he actually topped 150 votes one year.
