Brilliant for the simple fact that it manages to be a superior film to Stanley Kubrick's overblown '2001: A Space Odyssey' while highlighting the pretension on display in that film, and doing so on a shoestring budget.

A typical Carpenter movie, i.e.: bad. Lots of very bad jokes, cheap stuff etc. A remake by a serious director could have been cool, the storyline is interesting

Phenomenology of The Bomb & a sensual female voice of ship computer is crazy! Cheap SF with a lot of style.

Doolittle: But how do you know you exist? Bomb #20: It is intuitively obvious. Doolittle: Intuition is no proof. What concrete evidence do you have that you exist? Bomb #20: Hmmmm... well... I think, therefore I am. Doolittle: That's good. That's very good. But how do you know that anything else exists? Bomb #20: My sensory apparatus reveals it to me. This is fun.

Carpenter's first film, it was made while he was in university for $50,000. It's kind of a dark humour sci fi flick with Dan O'Bannon (the writer of Alien) as one of the actors in the film. There are some pretty funny moments, like a bomb who thinks he's god for instance. Basically its just a student film, not the greatest thing but you can see the beginnings of a cult horror director.

One of my favorite "worst" films. Camp, kitch? Yes, but also filled with heart and style.

Pretty funny and very much worth watching. You can see clearly where "Alien" came from.
