The Creature Wasn't Nice (1983)

"Amazed, incredulous, mind-boggled... any of those words would be appropriate.", 12 September 2014



Over the years, I've seen a lot of bad movies. And I can state without hesitation that The Creature Wasn't Nice (or Naked Space - the title I saw it under) is easily one of the very worst. It fits quite comfortably with cinematic disasters like Prime Evil, The Creeping Terror, and Curse of the Swamp Creature. I don't know how you set out to make a comedy and come up with something this unfunny. This piece of monkey excrement fails on every level. Everyone involved - writers, director, set designers, actors, key grips, caterers - should be embarrassed. What a disaster!

Most of the reviews I've read discuss what a disappointment it is to see Leslie Nielsen in something this bad. I have the same feeling for Patrick Macnee. I've always enjoyed his work, but in this hunk of garbage, he's just as bad as everything else. This thing is as far away away from Steed and The Avengers as you can get.
