Kailansorac Clever, believable, and super fun to watch. It totally has replay value.

ChanFamous I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.

SanEat A film with more than the usual spoiler issues. Talking about it in any detail feels akin to handing you a gift-wrapped present and saying, "I hope you like it -- It's a thriller about a diabolical secret experiment."

adonis98-743-186503 In California, an old man (Bela Lugosi) grieves the loss of his wife (Vampira) and on the next day he also dies. However, the space soldier Eros and her mate Tanna use an electric device to resurrect them both and the strong Inspector Clay (Tor Johnson) that was murdered by the couple. Plan 9 from Outer Space is quite ridiculous to say the least, people stand infront of fake skies, the dialogue is horrendous, the acting is over the top, the whole narration annoying and the way that Lugosi goes out was super hilarious in a bad way always of course. (0/10)

The Jellicle Kat It takes a certain kind of skill to try so hard and still make utter crap. That's what's incredible about Plan 9. The awkward narration, anti-rhythmic editing, cartoonish acting, shoestring budget, all culminate in a final scene of browbeating exposition with some kind of message that makes us all shake our heads with amusment. A classic of bad cinema.This film is so bad that is impossible not to like it. Aliens and vampires... What do you want more? Can a movie be so bad that it is somehow good? But still horrifically bad...They say 'Gone With the Wind' is one of the greatest movies EVER made, and this is supposed to be the WORST in cinema history. Give me 'Plan 9' ANY DAY over that pompous, overblown piece of crap. At least Plan 9 entertains.

jamesgandrew What can I say about Ed Wood that hasn't already been said? If you've ever seen the Tim Burton directed Ed Wood film starring Johnny Depp than you know he was determined to make whatever he wanted at any cost. Plan 9 is what he's most known for due to its schlocky production qualities and its hilariously bad moments. However, is it the worst movie ever made? Actually no, heck it isn't even the worst Ed Wood movie. If you haven't seen Plan 9 you are in for a treat! It features a great introductory narration by Criswell explaining the grave robbing from outer space which features stock footage of Dracula himself, Bella Lugosi until he suddenly gets run over by a car off screen. The imagery in this film inhabits that low budget sci-fi look from the 1950's. We have flying saucers on strings, a fake looking grave yard set and alien technology that isn't the slightest bit convincing. The naivety of the filmmaker is what makes this movie entertaining and the viewing experience doesn't feel torturous as say, Manos The Hands of Fate.

Eric Stevenson For a film that has a reputation as being possibly the worst ever, it's weird to see that the score isn't that low here and a lot of critics like it because of how stupid it is. Having finally managed to download the Rifftrax Live version of this, it was great to see the cast of MST3K finally take this movie on. They thought of using it for the actual show, but thought it was too talky. Now they've riffed on it like five times in different versions. It's at least not worse than what you would expect, but should probably be studied like any film.The film's biggest weakness is how utterly boring it is. It's simply a movie where nothing happens. It seems like there's shot after shot of the flying saucers just well, flying. None of this advances anything and the effects are horrendous. I heard the aliens were just people wearing pajamas. Hey, to be fair, they were good looking pajamas. All the talking parts go on way too long and it's something that would have been better as a very short film. It's easy to tell how bad the sets are and how basic the dialogue is. The effect with the explosion at the end is particularly bad.The Rifftrax version(s?) gave us tons of great lines like, "They move too darn fast" with, "We'll just have to kill the next group that comes along". The one that had me laughing the most was at the end when the guy was talking about how anyone we know could be an alien in disguise with the joke, "Kill them just to be safe". It's great to hear modern jokes like, "Tor studied acting under Dramatic Prairie Dog". I also loved, "Neither running or defending yourself have yet to be invented". I also liked "Holy cow!" with "He just became a Hindu". It's great fun with jokes like, "Flying saucers over Hollywood" with the jokes, "Chris Matthews repeatedly probed" and, "That has nothing to do with the flying saucers, you know". *
