I'm sure "10" had its own share of "black holes". Heh..

Can't reduce it to just one favorite, but high on the list is

Dark Star

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0069945/

It's the only SciFi Black Comedy I can remember.

Another obscure movie worth mention, is

Robinson Crusoe on Mars

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0069945/

which has a bit part starring Adam West - the TV Series Batman

Both good movies, and I still have a quick look at RCOM every now and then.

I should give Darkstar another chance. I rented it a few months ago and managed to watch the first 30 minutes or so before I got bored and stopped watching.

The first one. One thing that did catch my attention though is the scene where the guy does the fast knife stabbing routine between the fingers. That was used again in "Aliens". smile

Watched a decent sci-fi channel'ish movie this week called Cypher.
No idea how they got Lucy Liu in there, it otherwise had a couple of familiar sci-fi channel movie regulars (like David Hewlett, of SG Atlantis, Cube etc).

Lucy Liu really hasn't done much lately. The most recent thing I remember seeing her in was "Kill Bill".

It really does surprise me though some of the celebrities you see on these cheesy Sci-Fi Channel movies. John Rhys-Davies has done a couple of them.

Rhys-Davies is another actor that subscribes to the Louis Gossett Jr. formula for career advancement.
This movie was from 2002, so I guess it missed that window where she was a hot item.
