Aroview: Sharing the mantle with PLAN 9 FROM OUTER SPACE as the "worst movie of all time", this lesser-known unpolished turd is just as bad, only better.

After annihilating the Earth's population, Ro-Man (an alien robot in a gorilla suit and diving helmet) breaks up a family picnic by announcing that they are the last surviving Hu-Mans and that he doesn't intend to spare them. Trouble is, he fails to finish the job when he starts to develop confusing 'feelings' for his captives. Exploiting stock footage, laughable props, unspecial effects and hilariously stiff performances, this is greater than the sum of its terrible parts.
