I don't know why PLAN 9 is on the 1 star rating.
Yes, it's BAD. But everyone likes it anyway. That doesn't seem fair. You don't see tee-shirts or comic books or model kits based on FROM HERE TO ETERNITY.

This scared the s**t out off me when this clip was used as part of the CHILLER THEATER opening in the 60's in upstate NY.


In fact, I'll bet dollars to donuts that this film has had more viewings than ANY film made in the 1950's.

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 10, 13.

Glenn or Glenda is pretty weird, pretty stupid, & pretty pretentious, and I get the feeling Tim Burton never actually saw it...

Phantom From Space could've been a little more dull & formulaic, but for everyone contorting themselves into REALLY uncomfortable looking positions every time they curl up in an office chair & try to look relaxed... It's also saved by one of those rare occasions in which you see the police & the military working together instead of against each other...

Seen:

1. Plan 9 from Outer Space (1957)   - 9 (12.5%)

4. The Killer Shrews (1959)   - 7 (9.7%)

18. Unknown World (1951)   - 3 (4.2%)

20. The Day the Sky Exploded (1958)

Maybe a couple of others, tho I'm not sure. Didn't pay too much attention to Day the Sky Exploded; I was sick & I put in the DVD while in bed.

^ So far, it's got more views on these polls than any film from the 50's.

Right.  More people looked at PLAN 9 than BEN HUR.  Or PEYTON PLACE.  Or THE TEN COMMANDMENTS.  Or AROUND THE WORLD IN 80 DAYS.  Or FORBIDDEN PLANET.  Or GODZILLA, KING OF THE MONSTERS...

AROUND THE WORLD IN 80 DAYS got four votes. PLAN 9 got 9.
My kids- and most people I talk to have seen PLAN 9 . AROUND THE WORLD IN 80 DAYS?
No young folks watch that nowadays. Unless the're into steampunk.

    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.
