So over the past few weeks, I’ve felt like I watch too many good movies. Well, that changes with me announcing a new series of reviews:
The Worst of the Worst Movies!
For this series, I review a film that considered a bad film by many, be it from the “List of Films Considered the Worst” list on Wikipedia, or by Mystery Science Theater 3000, or IMDb’s Bottom 100, or the Razzies (note: I don’t take the Razzies very seriously, they hated The Shining when it first came out!), or otherwise. And what other film to start with than Plan 9 From Outer Space, one of the most famous bad films of all time!
Plan 9 From Outer Space was released in 1959 and was directed by Ed Wood, who I personally like to call the Tommy Wiseau of the ’50’s. It follows… Well, a ton of hilariously bad shit. From the hilariously bad effects where you can see the wires and boom mics, to the hilariously bad dialogue to the hilariously bad story following… Alien zombies, I guess?
What I want to talk about is how just hilarious this movie is! I know this is one of the worst films ever made, but come on! It’s so damn funny! Just look at these sets, just look at the effects, just look at the dialogue, just look at the delivery of said dialogue!
I highly recommend this as a “so bad it’s good movie,” just get drunk (if you are over 21 in my country at least) and have fun!
RATING:
4/10 (probably deserves a 1, but I love this movie so much that I’m rating it a 4)
Also don’t worry, not all the films I review in this series will be “so bad it’s good,” some of them truly ARE terrible movies. You’ll see.
