Product Description

If you set out to create the worst movie you could imagine, what would be your second step (we're presuming you've already hired Cuba Gooding, Jr. as the lead.) Maybe to cast a 300 pound Swedish wrestler as LA Police Chief? Make some flying saucers out of tinfoil and string? Perhaps see if a guy named Dudley Manlove could fill a supporting role? And you'd certainly want legendary director Ed Wood, Jr. involved, as writer, producer, director, or if possible, all three!

Well, Plan 9 From Outer Space has all of that and more! (Except for Cuba Gooding, Jr. Aside from not being born when it was made, he had already committed to "Daddy Day Camp.") Plan 9 is a movie that exceeds all expectations, a difficult task for a flick frequently dubbed "The worst movie of all time." Few films are more deserving of a hilarious mocking commentary, and fortunately, Mike Nelson, Kevin Murphy and Bill Corbett of RiffTrax.com and Mystery Science Theater 3000 rose to the occasion.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hilarious commentary to a hilarious movie, July 30, 2009

By	Keatsla (Wisconsin!) - See all my reviews

Plan 9 from Outer Space is a movie I had seen many, many times on it's own over the years and found it to always be highly entertaining. The Rifftrax jokes on top add further to the enjoymant of this "fine" film. I watched this with a group of people who had not seen the original movie and they liked it as much as I did-- it was like watching a really great episode of MST3K.

And I like that it is playable both with and without the Rifftrax commentary as I will likely watch this movie without them as well.

5.0 out of 5 stars MST3K / Rifftrax forever!, June 3, 2009

By	C. Servo (OH) - See all my reviews

If you like MST3K, then you'll love this. Having rediscovered these over the past year, I've filled my library with these and other MST3K alumni material (new and old). The kids like 'em, too.

This is the first Rifftrax I've watched. I think they're dead on with the commentary. Looking forward to getting more.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very, Very Funny!, August 25, 2009

By	Daniel W. Mcanally - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

The Rifftrax crew does their fun commentary on the Ed Wood film "Plan 9 from Outer Space" (Also known as: "The worst film of all time.") Since I am a huge fan of Ed Wood I was happy to own I could own this commentary on DVD, and am very proud to own it. This is a hilarious commentary and if you're any fan of humor you must own this DVD.
