Frankenstein Conquers The World.  I like the idea of an actual living Frankenstein, and how he winds up showing very distinct human emotions.

I also like the surreal quality of the entire film, and way that they tell you just enough about the creature w\o actually pinning down just how he came to be.
It leaves you guessing in a very entertaining way.

I also watch War Of The Gargantuas a lot too, because of the unusual humanization of Frankenstein Sanda and Frankenstein Gaira.  Unlike most Toho monsters, weapons actually hurt them, and they displayed a clearly defined moral conflict with each other.

In general, from the emotional approach in each movie, to the ability of the actors to use natural facial and eye expressions in WOTG, Toho made a very good pair of movies that I think Mr. Honda and crew never really gave themselves enough credit for.  :cheers:

Plan 9 From Outer Space

Together with Robot Monster, two of THE worst films ever made, of course I say that lovingly  :smile:

I have an old VHS tape that has both "Ed Wood" and "Up in Smoke" on it. My best friend and I would always watch it when we got drunk. Also we would break out a tape of the "MST3K" version of "Zombie Nightmare" quite a bit too.

Other than that, I've watched several MST3K versions of films maybe as many or 4-6 times each; they have lots of replayability.
Ditto, as I can never remember the riffs, save one or two occaisonally. Final Sacrifice makes me laugh the tenth time as much as it did the first time.

Aside from a few personal favorites, I generally am not one for "repeated viewings," I'd rather watch something I've never seen before over something I've seen a bunch of times. There are a few exceptions, though.

I've seen "RoboCop" (aka My Favorite Movie Ever) dozens of times.

During college I hung out with a gang of Rocky Horror geeks and therefore I saw that probably a dozen times or so over the course of a couple of years. 

And of course I'll always make time for certain personal favorites ("Star Wars," "Raiders of the Lost Ark," etc.), For example, if "Airplane" comes on while I'm channel surfing, I HAVE to stop and watch it. Not only because I love that movie and it rules, but also because the film irritates my wife to no end. Haha.

I watch Night Of The Living Dead a fair share, though not enough to call it repeatedly. 

There's just something about the way the film opens, so normal and unassuming, and how it goes from zero to nightmare in about 5 minutes. Not to mention the other things that made it great (and still does) over the years..  :thumbup:
