Aliens set "Plan 9" into motion on planet Earth by bringing the dead back to life and threatening the planet.Plan 9 from Outer Space is the finale of Bad Movie January and the film is as bad as advertised. This was our second watch and it was as bad as remembered. It's so bad, that discussing it was such a challenge. Ed Wood Jr. is widely known as one of the worst directors and after watching this film, the criticism is understood. While Plan 9 is the plan for the aliens to bring the dead back to life, it's never discussed what happened with plans 1-8, but even if they did mention it, we're positive it would make this movie even more nonsensical. Watch the movie and catch our review.

We end "WrestleMAYnia" with the mother of all cult movies, "Plan 9 From Outer Space."
New York-based filmmaker and producer Chadd Harbold joins to discuss the 1994 Tim Burton biopic 'Ed Wood', a sincere, loving portrait of the titular filmmaker and his band of Hollywood misfits coming together to make oddball, outsider B-movies that remain enduring works to this day. We discuss Tim Burton as filmmaker, the increasingly diminishing returns of his artistry, and why Ed Wood stands as perhaps his finest achievement. Then, we talk about Martin Landau's Oscar-winning turn as the horror legend Bela Lugosi, lovingly depicted in the film flaws and all. Finally, we ponder the current state of American filmmaking, and ask, 'Is there still a route by which an Ed Wood could make these movie on the outskirts today, and if so, would anybody be able to see them?'Follow Chadd Harbold on Twitter.

Django and Smut celebrate Cultpix being named on of the 10 Best New Streaming Services, talks about the next two episodes before the summer break, highlight the launch of the LGBTQ+ sub-genre and mourn the demise of Network Releasing. We have held what is probably the world's most comprehensive retrospective of the films of Ed Wood Jr, including films that he directed, wrote the script or book on which it is based. All-in-all 20 films, TV shows and shorts that Wood is linked to. While Ed Wood is often derided as the 'worst director ever', an image that Tim Burton's loving biopic "Ed Wood" (1994) only partly dispels, there is more to him than midnight screening of "Plan 9". We talk to writer and film expert Jim Knipfel, whose article "Ed Wood: Not Actually The Worst Director in History" goes a long way toward re-appraising Ed Wood, noting that "his films have a unique energy and charm that should be appreciated.""Glen or Glenda" (1953) - It could be argued that G/G is an art film because it has a visual flair and style of its own that would not shame Bunuel. The film is a heartfelt please for compassion and understanding. "Jail Bait" (1954) - Wood's juvenile delinquent film sees several Woods regulars, such as Lyle Talbot, Steve Reeves and Dolores Fuller, with Herbert Rollins replacing Bela Lugosi, only to die on the last day of shooting."Bride of the Monster" (1955) - Despite what Tim Burton would have you believe, the giant octopus was not broken and Lugosi gives a great performance despite being in bad health by this stage. "Plan 9 From Outer Space" (1959) - This Ed Wood film has been screened and discussed to death, but it is far from the worst film ever made. "Night of the Ghouls" (1959) - A semi-sequel to "Bride of the Monster" and "Plan 9", which completes Wood's sci-fi/horror trilogy and his Kelton the Cop trilogy. It is a perfectly serviceable horror film. "The Sinister Urge" (1960) - Considered Wood's last legitimate film, this crime 'roughie' is fairly bleak, rough but also more sophisticated, as Wood was getter better at his craft, even as he fought with alcoholism and setbacks. "Orgy of the Dead" (1965) - The film is "an insane, almost artsy, nudie horror picture featuring an endless stream of zombie strippers." In Sweden it was cut up into loop-style single strip numbers. Criswell is also there, but looking worse for wear. "Necromania" (1971) - An early and interesting example of "soft X" film, where genitals and erect penises are shown, but there is no touching them or action.While he will probably always be known as 'the Worst Director of all Time', Ed Wood Jr. is having the last laugh, because we are still watching and discussing his films long after his death. There is a Ed Wood Spotify playlist.

“If Ed Wood is the worst filmmaker in history, how come his movies make you feel so good?”Brought you by KEEPS go to Keeps.com/bingewatchersTonight on Binge-Watchers Podcast, it’s FEELING GOOD WITH ED WOOD! - watch the video stream here - Tonight’s movie? Ed Wood (1994) Because of his eccentric habits and bafflingly strange films, director Ed Wood (Johnny Depp) is a Hollywood outcast. Nevertheless, with the help of the formerly famous Bela Lugosi and a devoted cast and crew of show-business misfits who believe in Ed's off-kilter vision, the filmmaker is able to bring his oversize dreams to cinematic life. Despite a lack of critical or commercial success, Ed and his friends manage to create an oddly endearing series of extremely low-budget films.A little about filmmaker, Ed Wood. Edward Davis Wood Jr. was an American filmmaker, actor, and author. In the 1950s, Wood directed several low-budget science fiction, crime and horror films, notably Glen or Glenda, Jail Bait, Bride of the Monster, Plan 9 from Outer Space, Night of the Ghouls and The Sinister Urge.Should we spend a minute talking about the magic partnership between Johnny Depp and Tim Burton? Alright.We will run down some home video headlines such as Wonder Woman 1984 goes to HBO Max, Scorpion King gets a Rock reboot, Alan Rickman’s movie diaries are being printed, Coming 2 America will be out in March, Deadpool 3 is being written by Bob’s Burger writers - The Molyneux Sisters, Stranger Things 4 casts Robert Englund, 10 Cloverfield Lane director is making the next Predator movie, Burbank gets a Batman, and some sad news about Michael J. Fox.Turkey Day movies? Our favorites include Scent Of A Woman, Back To The Future 3, Elf, Home Alone, Jingle All The Way, and Rocky IV!What else did we watch this week?
