    HAW! It's incerdibly entertaining; but it's one of them things that gets worse each time you watch, 'cos you notice more silliness. (Next time you watch, pay attention to the detective's amazing gun safety. He points with it, he waves it around.... at one point he uses the barrel to scratch his head....)

    But I DO enjoy it. A lot.

        I know! I even commented aloud that the guy was gonna blow his fool head off!

        'Cos I believe, I believe that I do,
        Yes, I can see I believe that it's magic
        If your mission is magic your love will shine true."

            Correct, it was Tom Mason

              I'm not even sure if Lugosi was ever actually involved in the filming of Plan 9, his scenes were just silent stock Ed Wood had laying around.

                      I have Plan 9 on DVD, but prefer watching Glen or Glenda. I think Plan 9 was considered the worst movie ever made, until MST3K made people aware of Manos, the hands of Fate.

                        I think the weirdness makes up for it. So.... post apocalypse giant cyber-gorilla stalking the last survivors of the human race? That's tough to beat on the awesome-ometer.

                        Oh, yeah!

                          Cyber-gorilla with in a diving helmet, lusting after the nubile young woman!

                          You have to remember the whole movie turns out to be a dream of the little boy...

                          The movie has plenty of wacky sub-text. I love it!

                            My dad was a marine, and as a kid I remember watching this with him and he about spit out his drink laughing at that bit with the detective!
