I never subjected myself to the movie, although I've been tempted, just to see where it went so horribly wrong. I read the book having never heard of Scientology, which I think was for the best, since there's apparently some Scientology contamination in it.

You might be right.
I was kind of thinking that the sci-fi angle made Scientology rank right up there with Heaven's Gate, but maybe it was a little more plausible than that.
