I'd never need to download it. It's the first movie I ever bought on DVD.

"We are all interested in the future, because that is where you and I are going to spend the rest of our lives."

"Modern women. They've been like that all down through the ages."

"Now, don't you worry. The saucers are up there. The graveyard is out there. But I'll be locked up safely in there."

"Because all of you Earth are idiots!"

Great dialogue like that (uh, but not all in the same scene!), and Tor Johnson as Inspector Dan Clay. What more could you ask for? Well, besides a better script, better special effects, better acting, and a competent director?

I think Peter Jackson should remake this one next.

I suspect that the removal was due to copyright violation.

The Auld Grump

 

[Falkus]

Wasn't that supposed to be something like the worst science fiction movie ever?

 

[Henry]

That, or "Manos: The Hands of Fate"

Take your pick.

on second thought, don't.

 

[Barendd Nobeard]

Wasn't that supposed to be something like the worst science fiction movie ever?

No.

In the book "The Golden Turkey Awards" it was voted the "Worst Movie Ever"--no genre limitations on the honor.

 

[Barendd Nobeard]

That, or "Manos: The Hands of Fate"

Take your pick.

on second thought, don't.

Manos is just excruciatingly bad. Plan 9 has some sort of wonky, unexplainable charm.

 

[mojo1701]

It's pretty much the best worst movie ever.

 

[TheAuldGrump]

Oh, I don't know, Santa Claus Conquers the Martians is pretty close.

Manos was just bad, but Plan 9 was bad enough to be funny, ditto for SCCtM.

The Auld Grump, and Robot Monster...
