Plan 9 is not the worst movie ever made. It is possibly one of the most amateur movies ever made. If the name of the game is entertainment, then you will get it here in the form of unintentional comedy. The screenplay, plot, cliché dialogue, sets, fx, the complete disregard of destroying the legacy of Bela Lugosi, you name it this movie sucks in so many ways. However, it is watchable, only if you have a sense of humor and can laugh at the film itself. There are worse films out there. Tons. Worse movies would be something that is so amateurish, but that you can't even make fun of it. Here's my all time best movie to make fun of "Laser Mission" with Brandon Lee. This is a great movie. My worst movie of all time would be Star Wars 7, The Farce Awakens. This is not a movie that you can laugh at. It's a movie you cry at, because it is so sad. Crappy acting, crappy story, killing off a fan favorite character - Han Solo (not mine, but the series), just a modern day action nonsense movie. Here's another garbage movie: Starship Invasions (1977) with Robert Vaughn, Christopher Lee. This is a truly awful movie. It is so bad, the only thing laughable is the stupid costume Lee is wearing. Plan 9 has nothing on this movie. Now, here's a movie that some losers consider the worst movie of all time: Manos, The hands of Fate. I don't think so. Manos has a story, some eerie characters that you will never see before or after in any movie. The dialogue is solid. It has atmosphere! There is comedy and I believe it was intended. Plan 9 has some of the worst writing and production. The dialogue is so horrendous, it's one cliché after another, hard to watch. The plot is a joke in a not so funny way. The fx are crap. What we have here is a filmmaker who was basically an amateur. The film was produced and released, for that he gets an A. As a film it is a failure - F. For the unintentional comedy the rating is a a D-, 2 stars at best. 1 star given for including Bela Lugosi in a shameful way.Now, since there are over 200 ratings on this "film" and since imdb has gone downhill, where readers cannot opt to view in Chronological order, this review will probably never see the light of day. What a shame. We live in troubled times indeed.

This movie deserves its reputation as the worst movie of all time. Bad acting. Bad directing. Bad sets. Bad photography. Bad effects. Bad music. Bad continuity. There isn't a single redeeming quality here. And no, it's not some kind of camp classic. It's not worth sitting around and laughing at. It's a genuine, bona fide piece of junk.

Well, The Amazing Criswell's words in the very beginning of the movie do prepare the ground for what you're about to see. And it definitely is not pleasant for many out there. But for an unexplained reason... it was for me.The movie's cons are it's pros: the plot is so absurd that is actually brilliant, the acting and the lines are so poor that they just make you laugh all the time and the goofs throughout the movie (visible boom microphone, spinning around in order to avoid a curtain e.t.c.) make you ask for more.Cult figures such as Bela Lugosi (who's Plan 9 from Outer Space is his last movie), Vampira and The Amazing Criswell embrace Ed Wood's absurd world but they're not the only ones. Several Baptists were involved in the production on the film, which by the way, was Ed Wood's pride.

Director Edward D. Wood, Jr. makes an earnest attempt at a sci-fi story, though this movie is famous for being labeled as the 'worst film ever'.Aliens arrive on earth in the form of toy flying saucers filled with beings who sport fancy hairdos and shiny blouses. Earthlings must join together to thwart the extra-terrestrials while concomitantly trying to discover why the visitors are here.Greg Walcott gives a good performance in the role of an airline pilot as does Lyle Talbot as an army general. Also starring wrestler Tor Johnson as a police chief, horror film legend Bela Lugosi as a widower, beautiful vampiress Vampira, and psychic Criswell on hand to deliver an introductory narrative.Followed by Ed Wood's sequel 'Revenge of the Dead' (1960), later renamed 'Night of the Ghouls' by a videographer whom had nothing to do with either film at the time of their release.
