Here's a http://tcmdb.com/title/title.jsp?stid=86783 - LINK to the TCM web site page for http://tcmdb.com/title/title.jsp?stid=86783 - PLAN NINE (which includues info on how to order a DVD of the film). BTW, the TCM showing of PLAN NINE on October 13 will be immediately followed by one of Wood's other "Anti-Classics," http://tcmdb.com/title/title.jsp?stid=69669 - BRIDE OF THE MONSTER (in which Bela battles that infamous rubber octopus)... ------------- Ye Olde Head RAZZberry |

Plan 9 has inspired entire websites devoted to listing the numerous film flubs. This is one of the more comprehensive. Readers may want to copy them off and watch for them as we watch this yet again, as surely we all will. Maybe we should meet in a chatroom that night. http://www.angelfire.com/il/dauber/PLAN-9.html - http://www.angelfire.com/il/dauber/PLAN-9.html A total of 73 are listed (although there are a couple that were missed) which isn't bad in a movie with a running time of 77 minutes. ------------- Nine times out of ten, in art as in life, there is no truth to be discovered, only an error to be exposed.--H.L.

One of our local art theaters is showing Plan 9 From Outer Space at the midnight movie tomorrow night, along with some home movies from Ed Wood's personal archive (undoubtedly the production values are superior in the home movies). Unfortunately, they are showing the colorized version, which decidedly spoils the experience. Has it ever been suggested that a special Razzie should be awarded to Ted Turner for championing the worst assault on the motion picture arts in the history of filmdom, aka colorization? Response from Head RAZZberry: I used to joke that once he got the rights to the M-G-M film library, Turner would finally get around to making the first ten minutes of THE WIZARD OF OZ in color -- the way they were alwaze meant to be! But the process of colorization can't be entirely blamed on Turner -- I used to have a neighbor about 25 years ago who was one of the first to work at colorizing movies. Most of his clients were the studios themselves, tarting up their films like so many cadavers painted by Forest Lawn morticians, in the hopes of getting higher syndication prices for them. Turner simply followed their lead... ------------- Nine times out of ten, in art as in life, there is no truth to be discovered, only an error to be exposed.--H.L. Menken |

I am just glad that the studios learned their lesson and stop using their "Crayons" (as Orson Welles once said when Ted Turner was thinking of colorizing "Citizen Kane") to ruin their original masterpieces, god or bad! ------------- The "Networking IT" Movie Buff!

Gee, how horrid! Thanks to a freak snowstorm here in Western New
York, I missed it! BTW, I might add, the storm is called
the Columbus day storm by officials and the Friday the 13th storm by
people who woke up to no power on Friday morning. An omen
perhaps? . "Plan Nine" is not my favorite bad movie, but it does come close. ------------- "We aren't in Kansas anymore Toto... Toto??" |
