Critics and movie-goers alike agreed in 2000 that John Travolta's Battlefield Earth was the worst movie of the year. So, why won't it die?

No one seems to know why the movie will be resurrected as an animated series. Grizzly Adams himself Dan Haggerty will reportedly take the voice of Terl, the character played by Travolta in the live-action sci-fi film.

At least 13 episodes of the L. Ron Hubbard spin-off are planned.
