Overview

Plenty of us think we have seen the most terrible film in existence, but Twilight pales in comparison to the actual, literal, worst movie ever made. Plan 9 From Outer Space was made in 1959 and it's one of those movies you can tell how old it is not by the timid nostalgic notions, but the overall crap quality of production. The special effects, the acting, the entire movie is laughable, but somehow endearing, and like any shitty flick, you just can't look away.

The premise is a tad bit hard to follow, but hey, they didn't have the biggest budget or best director to work with. Hint: the director was cross-dressing afficiando Edward D. Wood. The story follows an old couple that die a day apart (don't worry, I'm not spoiling anything), and space 'soldiers' try and resurrect them. The plan 9? To have a dead army rule the earth. Cue the worst graphics ever, plot holes, and an eerie mess of motion picture all in one.

There's something therapeutic about watching rubbish films, but even more so when you get a drink included in the entry fee. Room 60 is waiting for you to find out about that pop-culture reference you never knew they were referring to.
