It's actually not all that bad: some of the flying saucer scenes are fairly good, and the general weirdness about the opening makes it pretty memorable. If you really want to see the worst film of all time, rent MI:2.

Perhaps Tom Cruise could remake Plan Nine.....

haven't seen that
IMDB says it's not due till 2008
The original Deathrace 2000 was pretty bad, but better than Universal Soldier: the Return

I thought this was another thread on George Bush's foreign policy...

Anyways...yes. Pretty much so.

Some films are bad. Really bad. Like Anaconda or Congo. But they are so bad that they actually turn good on you. Your warm and tender spots go all mushy and sloppy when watching them. Basically, you are not driven to hard drugs.

However, some films are bad. Bad to the extent that they have absolutely no redeeming features at all.
"Father of the bride part II" comes to mind. Mind-boggelingly bad.

Have you ever seen a low budget Italian or French movie with a plot along the lines of "tramp falls in love with lamppost" and the whole film is one massive monologue with bad acting, smoking and miraculous lighting to show weeds growing on the pavement?
Well, times that by 10 and you're still nowhere near the tragedy which is Ed Wood's masterpiece.

In fact, I can safely say that the only bit of the torture known as plan nine from outer-space which is nearly amusing is that the gravestones in the graveyard blow about in the wind.

HOWEVER... I would recommend seeing it, just because Ed Wood conned the Baptist church into financing it.

WAY TO GO ED!!!

I thought the original "Universal Soldier," which starred Jeane-Claude Van Damme and Dolph Lundgren was pretty bad. At the time, Variety Magazine said the two muscle men provided the missing link between acting and claymation.

No, Plan 9 was the pinnacle of Ed Wood's career - he made some far worse films.

"Ishtar".
Run screaming when ever you encounter this utter rubbish.
