TOR JOHNSON CAUSE OF DEATH MOVIE

Strangely, despite the sort of So Bad, It's Good kitsch the show usually reveled in, this movie was never riffed on by Mystery Science Theater 3000. There are a set of actions a la The Rocky Horror Picture Show that are performed with the film (yelling 'DAY!' for day shots, 'NIGHT!' for night shots, 'NOT BELA!' for Bela's replacement, 'BANG' whenever someone displays poor firearm safety, etc.). Meanwhile, 'army brass' battles the aliens with a combination of Stock Footage of artillery and impressive looking-through-binoculars in front of a curtain, only to reveal that the aliens have sent them messages that are often cut off by ' atmospheric conditions in outer space'.Įvery year, at the 24-hour film festival known as B-Fest, this movie is screened at midnight. The police department investigate the mysterious rising of a dead old man (played alternately by Bela Lugosi and a much taller, younger man pretending to be Bela Lugosi by holding a cape over his face), his suspiciously young wife and Police Inspector Clay, who's 'a big boy now, Johnny'.

Hey, in this case, one out of three ain't bad.Ī classic tale of Human Aliens creating a Zombie Apocalypse via administering ' long distance electrodes shot into the pineal and pituitary gland of the recent dead'. But for just those qualities, it is often considered the worst movie of all time. As it turned out however, Bela Lugosi was dead, while Ed Wood was a man of unlimited drive and determination, but had absolutely no talent as a writer or director. Plan 9 from Outer Space is a 1959 American black-and-white science fiction horror film written, produced, directed and edited by Ed Wood that was to change the world irrevocably, resurrect Bela Lugosi's ailing film career and be known forever as the greatest motion picture of all time. Before there was The Room, Troll 2, Birdemic, the collected works of Uwe Boll, Baby Geniuses, Battlefield Earth, or even Manos: The Hands of Fate, this was the golden standard in bad filmmaking.
