Bad... yes, but in a self-redeeming sort of way. "So bad it's good", for lack of a more deft description. And it manages to be entertaining without the peanut-gallery comments from Joel, Crow and Tom Servo.

Agree, nevertheless, everyone still talks about it.

Worse than “Manos: The Hands of Fate”? I think not.

Even worse...another Bela Lugosi classic, “Glen or Glenda.” (1953)

No argument from me. I got stuck with it -- in BetaMax, no less -- when Midland's first video rental outfit closed its doors without warning.

I strongly disagree. While Plan 9 is cheap, poorly directed, badly acted and horribly written, it's still manages to be entertaining--Criswell's introduction ("We are all interested in the future for that is where you and I will spend the rest of our lives!"), the paper plate flying saucers, Lugosi's offscreen death, Tor Johnson struggling to get his bulk out of the grave, Vampira's 9-inch waist. I'll watch Plan 9 when it comes on TV and won't begrudge the 79 minutes. Bad movies, to my thinking, are ones that are too boring to keep my attention.
