- DirectorLarry BlamireStarsLarry BlamireFay MastersonBrian HoweA bad scientist and his wife, a mad scientist, a skeleton, and two aliens and their escaped pet are all searching for the elusive element "atmospherium".The ultimate in 1950s B movie scifi send ups. Exceedingly clever and hilarious writing and character interactions.
- DirectorArmen EvrenselStarsKristin KreukAmanda TappingGeorge TakeiOuter-space explorers encounter gigantic aliens on their ship.Star-studded indie film with a great off-beat humorous slant. The small cast is very likeable and the villain is one of the most unique ever. If you're a fan of Hitchhiker's Guide, Rick & Morty or Red Dwarf definitely see it.
- StarsMark WilliamsJack DochertySarah AlexanderAliens in human form land on Earth to carry out a secret mission, and when the Supervisor is decapitated, the two bumbling Cadets have no idea what the mission entails. With a mixture of their of own language, and mannerisms taken from old 50s movies, they try and get through the crazy world we live in, without trying to get caught by the various shady organisations after them.A pair of advanced plant-based alien invaders disguised as humans tackle the simplest of concepts like eating, sleeping and hitchhiking. One of the funniest fish out of water stories ever. Created by Rob Grant of Red Dwarf fame.
- DirectorÖmer Faruk SorakStarsCem YilmazÖzge ÖzberkOzan GüvenA slick young Turk kidnapped by extraterrestrials shows his great « humanitarian spirit » by outwitting the evil commander-in-chief of the planet of G.O.R.A.This is a brilliant, visually stunning Turkish film and the humor translates to English very well.
- CreatorBill DialMichael PillerStarsRichard Dean AndersonJohn de LancieMark Adair-RiosErnest Pratt, a dime-store novelist in the old west, lives with his scientist friend Professor Janos Bartok in the small town of Sheridan, Colorado. The people of Sheridan mistakenly believe that Pratt, a drinker, gambler, and womanizer, is the audacious and pure hero of his novels, Nicodemus Legend. Bartok and his associate, Ramos, convince Pratt to assume the Legend persona while supplying him with Legend-like futuristic gadgets that they invent. Together, Bartok and the reluctant Pratt (as Legend), adventure throughout the west solving mysteries, capturing wrong-doers, and even making scientific discoveries.This is more of a western steampunk action/comedy. Starring MacGyver and Q, it is extremely fun if you can find it.
- DirectorTimo VuorensolaStarsAntti SatamaTiina RoutamaaSamuli TorssonenThe future looks bleak for Captain Pirk. Originally from the far future, he traveled back to save the world, but was shipwrecked on the 21st century. The world of the past is a dangerous place and he is finding it difficult to convince the ladies he is, in fact, an intergalactic space hero from the future. To make things right Pirk comes up with a questionable plan to save mankind's future...Any fans of the Star Trek franchise that can laugh at it and themselves will want to see this parody/homage.
- DirectorLarry BlamireStarsH.M. WynantFrank DietzChristine RomeoJerranium 90, a "little rock" that made all the papers, is buried deep within the Amazon. And everybody wants it, including crooked importer Handscomb Draile, slimy Gondreau Slykes, cheap crook Carl Traeger and evil scientist Dr. Ellamy Royne.The very good sequel to The Lost Skeleton of Cadavra.
- DirectorAli Taner BaltaciCem YilmazStarsCem YilmazÖzge ÖzberkZafer AlgözCommander Logar fools Arif and sends him 1.000.000 years back in the time. He must civilize people from past to reach today.The very good sequel to G.O.R.A.
- DirectorGrant HarveyStarsTom GreenCrispin GloverSarain BoylanFREEZER BURN is an action comedy - aimed at a young male audience. Disguised as executives from a Dutch Oil Company, Aliens from outer space buy a local farming company and promise to create jobs for the failing farming town. Their goal is to use crop circles to heat up the temperature of the earth and eventually turn the entire planet into a Club-Med for extra-terrestrials. Green plays the reluctant town hero and Glover will play the villain and leader of the Aliens.I'm not wild about Tom Green but this film is very worthy of being on this list, give it a chance.

Unfortunately the pilot dies on the morning of the trip and his twin brother impersonates him unaware of the plot.
