B-Movie Bingo! feat. PLAN 9 FROM OUTER SPACE — just $5

August 19, 2022 : 8:30 pm

At this screening, we’ll be playing B-Movie Bingo! You’ll get a bingo card with typical B-movie stuff (explosions, bad acting, flying saucers…you get the idea) — When you get BINGO, you’ll win a prize!

With its incoherent plot, jaw-droppingly odd dialogue, inept acting, threadbare production design, and special effects so shoddy that they border on the surreal, PLAN 9 FROM OUTER SPACE has often been called the worst movie ever made. But it’s an oddly endearing disaster; boasting genuine enthusiasm and undeniable charm, it is the work of people who loved movies and loved making them, even if they displayed little visible talent. In PLAN 9, alien invaders attempt to conquer the world by raising the dead, starting with an old man dressed in a Dracula costume (Bela Lugosi, in a few minutes of left-over footage grafted into this film), his much-younger and well-proportioned wife (Maila “Vampira” Nurmi), and a remarkably overweight police officer (Tor Johnson). Often funny and consistently entertaining (if almost always for the wrong reasons), PLAN 9 FROM OUTER SPACE is an anti-masterpiece if there ever was one, and as Criswell so brilliantly puts it, “Can you PROVE it didn’t happen?!?” Its legendary director Edward D. Wood Jr. was played by Johnny Depp in Tim Burton’s 1994 biopic, Ed Wood. (AllMovie)
