IMDB
"Can your heart stand the shocking facts about Graverobbers from Outer Space?" That's the question on the lips of the narrator of this tale about flying saucers, zombies and cardboard tombstones. A pair of aliens, angered by the "stupid minds" of planet Earth, set up shop in a California cemetery. Their plan: to animate an army of the dead to march on the capitals of the world. (The fact that they have only managed to resurrect three zombies to date has not discouraged them.) An intrepid airline pilot living near the cemetery must rescue his wife from this low-budget terror. "Can you prove it *didn't* happen?"


This is a topic for discussing Ed Wood's classic flop, Plan 9 from Outer Space and all its sublime awfulness.

Memorable quotes


Eros: You do not need guns.
Jeff Trent: Maybe we think we do.

Paula Trent: ...A flying saucer? You mean the kind from up there?
Jeff Trent: Yeah, either that or its counterpart.

Paula Trent: Now, don't you worry. The saucers are up there. The graveyard is out there. But I'll be locked up safely in there.

Air Force Captain: Visits? That would indicate visitors.

Colonel Tom Edwards: This is the most fantastic story I've ever heard.
Jeff Trent: And every word of it's true, too.
Colonel Tom Edwards: That's the fantastic part of it.

Lieutenant John Harper: I'll bet my badge that we haven't seen the last of those weirdies.

Criswell: Greetings, my friend. We are all interested in the future, for that is where you and I are going to spend the rest of our lives. And remember my friend, future events such as these will affect you in the future.

Criswell: My friend, can your heart stand the shocking facts of grave robbers from outer space?

Criswell: [narrating] At the funeral of the old man, unknown to his mourners, his DEAD WIFE was watching!

Lieutenant John Harper: But one thing's sure. Inspector Clay is dead, murdered, and somebody's responsible.

Paula Trent: I've never seen you in this mood before.
Jeff Trent: I guess that's because I've never been in this mood before.

Jeff Trent: I'm muzzled by army brass!

Paula Trent: Now toddle off and fly your flying machine.

Colonel Tom Edwards: ...Why, a particle of sunlight can't even be seen or measured.
Eros: Can you see or measure an atom? Yet you can *explode* one. A ray of sunlight is made up of *many* atoms!
Jeff Trent: So what if we *do* develop this Solanite bomb? We'd be even a stronger nation than now.
Eros: [with disgust] Stronger. You see? You see? Your stupid minds! Stupid! Stupid!
Jeff Trent: That's all I'm taking from you!

Eros: It's because of men like you that all must be destroyed.

Criswell: Perhaps, on your way home, someone will pass you in the dark, and you will never know it... for they will be from outer space.

What, no love for the worst film of all time? Come on, folks!

...in my pants.
 
     
 
I have love for it!

^^

I don't know about anyone else, but I prefer the original black && white over the colorized version I've seen. It just seems more... Ed Wood to me.

The colours are okai. But it's really not that different. I just never realised that Aliens dressed in greens and purples. ^^

"Plan 9 From Outer Space" is one of the most hilarious movies I have ever seen. So bad it's actually pretty good.
     
They Will Follow Him, and He Will Fight, to the Last Drop of Their Blood
Well, it WAS the worst movie, sad it now has to settle for second place. The true worst? Well, that's obvious.

I beg to differ. Plan 9 still holds the record, in my opinion.
