That is Mogunetudon. Your eyes do not deceive you. He does, in fact, have a catfish for an ass.

That get's my number one vote... Thanks, Akiratubo- I'd seen that one before but couldn't remember the name.

Guilala gets second place and Guiron comes in third. Gappa deserves honorable mention for reminding me of the winged monkeys in The Wizard of Oz. The Guardian from Prince of Space seems tame and ordinary by comparision.

You wouldn't by chance be referring to Night Crawlers would you, because I have a longstanding grudge with that movie and one of these days it will either kill me or I will wipe all known recordings of it from the face of the Earth...

No, I was talking about that horrible, horrible boxed set from BCI Eclipse that blasphemes the name of my favorite Roger Corman movie.

I know you'll probably want to wash your hands after typing this, but what's the name of this abomination so I'll know what to put on the restraining order?

After reading your review, I have to say that I really empathize with you. Only someone who's been subjected to the Polonias' brand of anti-acting & nauseatingly dull story telling can truly understand the kind of sheer hatred one developes for these guys & everything they stand for.

Okay, here goes: The boxed set to which I refer is called Galaxy of Terror, not to be confused with the Roger Corman classic http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0082431/ whose name they blaspheme!

Now, certain things could've been excused, such as the guy in a baggy bear suit & a skiing vest, the Halloween masks, the hand puppets, the toy motocycle helmets for spacesuits...But Mark & John Polonia take production values to an all new low, using sanding goggles & dust masks for spacesuits, and two different kinds of really stupid spiders: The first being a nerf ball with pipe cleaners stuck in it, with a toilet snake for fangs, the second spider being, uh, well, a glove.Also, I can understand when financial, legal or insurance issues prohibit the use of decent prop guns, but these guys use those kinds of water pistols you only find at the Dollar Tree.

Combine all this with the afformentioned non-acting & no-story-to-tell storytelling, & you've got an inexcusable affront to the visual arts that would make Larry Buchanan look like a genious.

These are all wonderful -- I own and love the extreme stupidity of "Creature From The Haunted Sea" --Reptilicus has to be included here as well --Yes, the Giant Claw --Robot Monster --I have never even HEARD of the "catfish ass" monster -- I lead such a protected life . . .thankyoupeter j/denny c.

I'd like to give the Beach Ball Alien from DARKSTAR an honorable mention for creativity on a budget. It is not ridiculous like some of those listed, but it is pretty funny and obvious.

As for the dumbest? Of those listed so far, I'd have to include my vote for Mogunetudon. I laughed for about ten minutes when I saw that, along iwth akiratubo's comment "Your eyes do not deceive you. He does, in fact, have a catfish for an a$$."

any of the creatures from Tremors movies. I mean what are these things? And what are they suppose to be?

now im gonna have to be a dick and say.... are you nuts?! the graboid was pretty goddamn original if you ask me and the design kicks ass!( i cant speak for the other 3 incarnations but the original is too fricken cool)

no, I'm not nuts. You have to admit giant earth worms (if that was the idea?) are kinda weird and not really scary. Then in the sequels they evolve into weirder creatures.
