120 posts and nobody is going to even talk about Plan 9? Is it just a cliche now?
Too many hilarious scenes and lines to even pick from – we’d be here all day – but what the hell, I’ve always adored this cop scratching his face with his gun:
For better or for worse, Plan 9 has entered the cultural consciousness and is probably sticking around for at least another generation.
Besides Criswell’s various bits of drivel, my favorite line has to be “Inspector Clay’s dead. Murdered! And someone’s responsible!”
“Hey! HEY! Heyheyheyheyheyhey HEY!”
Full Moon Productions made a lot of direct-to-video movies that were a lot more entertaining than they had any right to be. One of my favorite movies of theirs was Doctor Mordrid starring Jeffrey Combs as the good doctor. It’s basically a Doctor Strange movie with the serial numbers filled off. But FMP made all sort of movies that were so bad they were good including Subspecies, Dollman, Demonic Toys, and a few others I simply can’t recall.
Delicious cinematic junk food.
I watched it on MST3K and Combs was a good leading man. It’s a pity he was typecast.
Another terrible but not bad movie is Curse of the Faceless Men. Or there’s The Christmas Dragon.
“The Devil Rides Out” with Christopher Lee, adapted from one of a long series of “horror” novels by Dennis Wheatley. He plays an aristocratic (of course) guy battling demonic possession.
Speaking of, Time of the Apes is really bad … and fun, especially when viewed with the MST3K gang.
I liked Demonic Toys and the first Subspecies was good to great on an obviously low budget.
I suppose The Room falls into that category as well.
