9) All scenes should be completed in ONE and ONLY ONE take. Cause time & film are expensive!

Make sure that there's a scary looking monster on the poster, but use a stupid looking monster (and only for a few minutes), or worse, no monster at all!

    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:
