Normally, I don't use the IMDb to lambaste movies that I don't like, but LIS was so bad that it has to be an exception. Until I saw this mess, I would not have believed that anybody could have created a movie this awful. This is the sort of garbage that gives SciFi a bad reputation. (Ed Wood could have done a far better job at a fraction of the cost.) LIS seems to have been aimed at just about everyone - lots of extravagant (mostly wasted) special effects for the adults(?) and a cutesy (i.e., ridiculous) alien and lots of omnivorous creepy-crawly spider monsters to entertain/scare the kiddies. Unfortunately, the director's aim is to poor that it all manages to miss just about everybody. Sadly, June Lockhart's cameo role was the high point of the movie, and after the ship left the ground the movie just went downhill. The time traveling near the end was so convoluted that evidently even the writers got totally confused.
I didn't expect a lot going into this movie, and I probably would never have bothered to watch it had it not been a freebie DVD that came with the machine. I can see why it was free - it was worth every cent that I paid for it. My rating: 1/10.
