My nomination for one of the worst "SF" movies would have to be "Robot
Monster", circa 1951. The alien was a guy dressed in a gorilla suit
with a sort of diving helmet type thing on his head. When he would
contact his home planet it was via a standard '50s style TV set showing
someone in a similar costume standing in front of a curtain with soap
bubbles being blown around behind him. At the end of the movie, the
little boy (think his name was Bobby) wakes up to find it was all a
dream, then he looks out his window and sees the flying saucer that
started his dream coming in. Best line: "I am not hu-man, I am
ro-man."
