I've only seen three of those.  Night of the Blood Beast is sort of a favorite.  I remember buying Swamp Women for a penny and it's easily the worst looking DVD I own.  Think I've seen Gila Monster as well.  I'll have to check a couple of those other ones out, the trailers look kind of interesting.

What, no "Killer Shrews?"  Question

Only one of these I'm sure I've seen is "Giant Gila Monster," I recognize quite a few titles as being in a "Horror Classics" 50-movie box that I own, I just havent' gotten round to 'em yet.

You guys MUST see ROBOT MONSTER!!! Next to PLAN 9-the most entertaining 50's s**t EVER!!!!

Small | Large


It's a guy (George Barrows,qctually) in a monkey suit with a cheap space helmut. And a Lawrence Welk bubble machine. And a total idiot.OH! and stock footage of ONE MILLION BC (1939)! And an atom bomb blast! And your mind will melt faster than a cube of ice in a microwave. If your not used to Bad Movies-it'll blow up like a cat in a microwave!
What more can ya ask for? Alchohol makes it better! If you smoke pot-your face will HURT from smiling and laffing so much.

And why isnt PLAN 9 on the list? Or MESA OF LOST WOMEN?

14.  A lot of these made MST3K episodes and I own several of them on various Mill Creek sets.

I didn't think GIANT GILA MONSTER was that bad.   ROBOT VS THE AZTEC MUMMY was the worst.

The cut off line was 800 IMDb votes. Unfortunately Mesa has only 765 IMDb votes. Plan 9 scores an amazing 3.8/10 rating at IMDb.  For these polls I only used movies with an IMDb rating between 1/10 - 2.9/10.

I've only seen The Violent Years which to me has the most groan inducing dialogue I've ever encountered. In other words, typical Ed Wood effort. I wanna see all the rest though. Maybe you guys could recommend a Mill Creek pack containing those other ones perhaps?

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.

    Lesson Learned:
    • Osmosis: os·mo·sis (oz-mo'sis, os-) n., 1. When a bird eats something.
