It's pretty good but loses steam in the last third before finishing strong.

I watched it on youtube last night. Plan 9 is by no means the worst movie ever made. I actually found it watchable. Manos, on the other hand (no pun intended), was garbage.

In a way, I see the original Night of the Living Dead as, almost, a rip off of Plan 9. It's essentially Plan 9 without the aliens.

So, then . . . it's a story about the Obama presidency? :whistling:

I think my favorite MST3K is Mitchell with Joe Don Baker.

Manos has its moments with MST3K but Mitchell had me in stitches.

MST3K is also on You Tube for free. my Favorites:

The beginning of the end: Giant Man eating grasshoppers
The Deadly Mantis: a single giant man eating praying mantis
The thing that wouldn't die: the head of a 15th century sorcerer is found alive and it takes over minds

I've looked on YouTube, but I haven't been able to find MST3K. I watched 4 episodes yesterday, and my 2 fav so far are Pumaman & Space Revolt. Manos was barely watchable w/the treatment.

OMG...I found MST3K The Final Sacrifice on youtube. I haven't laughed that hard in a while. Hands down my fav MST3K episode so far. Space Revolt is right behind it

as long as I am stuck at home. I have 1 good movie, Marvel's civil war (not seen it yet).
and three cheesy Sy-Fy movies that will likely suck. I have been ruined forever by MST3K.

the bad movies are:
Queen Crab: Heroes race to kill a giant man-eating crab before it can lay eggs.
Grabbers: not sure, but a bunch of tentacles threaten a beach side home.
Terrordactyl: flying reptiles attack a big city.

I will update this with reviews so you won't need to waste you money...but i do love cheesey movies!

It sounds like you could merge the final 3 and make a SciFi Channel movie.

I'm watching the new MST3K on Netflix. Pretty good so far.
