Summary: Whats the deal??
Review: This movie isnt nearly as bad as what ive been led to believe. I can think of many of the so called "movies with a message" and "5 star gems" to come out of Hollywood recently, that were much worse! Whats a few string suspended flying saucers, and corny dialog do to prevent this gem, starring not only Lugosi but the hottie Vampira, from being a true classic? Come on reviewers, you can surely find a worse movie than this. How about The Blair Witch Project or anything with Jim Carey?

Summary: Beware of movie nights at my house . . .
Review: Because this flick is sitting here on my shelf lying in wait for my next unsuspecting victim . . . The title alone is a dead giveaway of how bad this movie is. Ed Wood did not make horror movies; he made horrible movies! But you've got to exalt a movie that is so bad and so ridiculous that it rivets you to see what other foolishness is afoot. You can't turn it off no matter how many times you say to yourself that you will. And then, to top it off, you find yourself showing it to friends who fall into the same trap. You just look over at each other and shake your head with your mouth open and then return your attention to the screen. Ed Wood reached the apex of his nadir in this one; the hokey backgrounds, the ridiculous characters, the moronic dialogue and the idiotic plot twists make you laugh so hard that you're embarrassed. The special effects would be considered poor by High School film class standards and yet therein lies its charm. Wood doesn't try to make this movie more than it was. At the time it was a terrible stigma to be exiled into one of these films, yet, besides Dracula, what other film is Lugosi remembered for? And, by the way, just who was that guy behind the cape that took over for Lugosi as Ghoul Man? You know, it is said that Lugosi still haunts the crummy hotel on Sunset Blvd. where he died of a heroin overdose while making this film . . . OOOOOO!! . . . This movie will continue to grow in cult classic stature as time goes on, because everyone who sees it will show it to a friend who will show it to a friend; you just may be next . . .

Summary: So bad it's good
Review: I ordered this title because one of the guys that I work with said that I needed to see the worst movie ever made. Don't be fooled. The story isn't as bad as a lot of people say it is. However, this is a full length feature. It's poorly shot and I found that the camera angles were slightly irritating. That said, any budding filmmaker or cinematographer should study this film for long looks at things they should never do.This movie is so monumentally bad, you can't stop it and/or look away. I watched it fully expecting to turn it off midway through. I watched it through and checked out the extras on the disc. It's interesting how bad Cecil Demented was. I wouldn't really recommend this movie for purchase, but go to Blockbuster and rent it. It's interesting.

Summary: Grave Robbers From Outer Space
Review: Oh FORGET that "Plan 9" stuff. I prefer the ORIGINAL title GRAVE ROBBERS FROM OUTER SPACE (Ed wood was forced to change it by religious groups). With that said, GRAVE ROBBERS FROM OUTER SPACE is as wacky and filled with unintentional LAUGHS as the true title indicates. Hoo boy! Check the burning paper plates set up to resemble the flying saucers on fire! The look on Tor Johnson's face that remains throughout the film. The ridiculous (but perhaps well-intentioned) anti-nuke soliloquy by "Eros" (another inside joke-a man who wants to destroy the earth is named after the Greek word for "love") will have you rolling on the floor; "You earthlings are STUPID! STUPID! STUPID!" So is the film. Don't forget, as the loony narrator says at the end-"The future is where we'll spend the rest of our lives!" Spend a small part of that future with a LAUGH-RIOT and watch this film.

Summary: A riot!
Review: One reviewer here was apparently able to warp time in such a way as to stretch this film-which is not even 1 and 1/2 hours long as I remember it-into 2 and 1/2 hours (!) at which point the reviewer 'gave up' on the film. Uh, I think you have the wrong film there buddy...(*in Homer Simpson voice* "I wonder what it would be like to displace time and space?...hmm...") Anyway-PLAN 9 FROM OUTER SPACE is a marvelously horrid film. It's hard not to laugh at the miserable effects and dialogue. Everyone should see this film at least once. What's not to like about a film where a) night and day are interchangeable b) one of the main characters dies before the film is completed and is played for the remainder by the director's chiropractor (cape drawn across face of course!) c) flying saucers appear to be two styrofoam plates glued together and suspended by very visible wires d) these same *futuristic* spaceships contain items that appear to have been taken directly out of Dr. Frankenstein's laboratory e) horrendous incidental 'music' and painfully obvious military training out-takes used in the 'battle' scenes (LOL) f) a rotten, putrid, wretched script. ("All you of earth are...IDIOTS!") g) Massive variations in the quality of the film itself, missed sound cues etc. PLAN 9 FROM OUTER SPACE was the recipient of two GOLDEN TURKEY Awards, for Worst Film and Worst Director. And let me tell you, they were justly given. Phew! What a stinker. I also recommend the wonderful 1996 (?) film ED WOOD, about the director of this and other classics such as GLEN OR GLENDA (about cross-dressing). I have a warm place in my heart for Mr. Wood. Thanks Ed, for the laughs!

Summary: This is not a movie
Review: I would like to make it clear that this is not a movie, it is an abomination posing as a movie.
I watched this under the knowledge that it would be bad. Most of the time, bad movies are pretty funny. But Plan 9 goes beyond bad/funny into the realm of pain, which also includes long dental surgery, torture, and startvation. Don't get this movie, not even to see how bad it is, it's not worth it. It's funny at first, but it drags on, and on, and on. I gave up after 2 and 1/2 hours! Do yourself a favor, save your money, and your mind.

Summary: Stupid but funny
Review: This is the stupidist movie ever created and that is why i'm going to buy it off amazon.com

Summary: Trash at its best
Review: If you like B movies, stay awake late at night just to see them, and have good memories of your childhood seeing them, Plan 9 is a must have. It is so bad that sometimes I think it is a comedy. But if you want a movie with a good plot, good acting and at least a decent photography, don't loose your time.

Summary: The Kind of Bad You Have to Love!
Review: Much has been written about how bad this movie is, and still more can be said. It really is the worst movie of all time-a MUST SEE! I cannot top the description for this movie on Amazon.com, so I won't try. All I can do is attest to the fact that it is hilariously BAD, and deserving of mocking derision. I suggest you watch the movie "Ed Wood," and then mistreat yourself to this cult classic!

Summary: God Help Us In the Future!!
Review: This is the immortal monument to a man who's vision and desire were not clouded by such silly things like budgets, deaths in the cast, confusing dialogue, etc.
This is Ed Wood's "masterpiece."
From Tor Johnson's mangling of the English language, to the use of Woods' wife's chiropractor as a stand-in for the recently departed Bela Lugosi.
Swaying cardboard tombstones...action that goes from daylight, to night, and then back to daylight...
This is just brilliant in its stupidity and insanity.
I will be seeing this movie much more in the future, since the future is where we will all spend the rest of lives.
