Weekend Discussion Thread: Worst Special Effects/Make-Up

Alert reader Phil (aka “Fart Bargo”) writes:

I was reviewing the list of weekend threads and a lot of fun ones have already been done. What struck me was the absence of Worst Special Effect/Make-up thread.

Good catch! For special effects, I’d have to go with the flying pizza creatures in IT CONQUERED THE WORLD. For makeup, I’d have to pick the zombies in THE INCREDIBLY STRANGE CREATURES WHO STOPPED LIVING AND BECAME MIXED-UP ZOMBIES.

What are your picks?
