Review of Plan 9 from Outer Space (1957) by Carl H — 03 May 2012
This is Ed Wood's worst film, so extremely bad, that it is good. A film that almost stars Bela Lugosi as an old man, which has become nothing short of a cult classic. This also stars the horror icon Vampira â" who does not speak throughout the whole film, because she did not like her lines â" and obese 400 hundred pound wrestler Tor Johnson, who cannot speak a word of English.
It has everything from space aliens, flying saucers to zombies. Originally this was going to be called Grave Robbers from Outer Space - but the church which was funding the film said it was too immoral.
Ed Woodsâ(TM)s life is a very sad story, but the truly amazing thing is how he got his films made, to find more about his life in filmmaking, watch the film Ed Wood by Tim Burton. I very much recommend this, you will laugh so much.
