Plan 9 From Outer Space (1959)


































   Humans have mastered a massive destruction weapon that threats the entire universe. In order to stop them, intelligent alien humanoids resurrect the dead from their graves as zombies, ghouls and vampires and placing them under their command they make sure the weapon is stopped...
  Carrying the heavy title of the worst film ever made, Plan 9 is a kick in the nuts of any puritan cinema enthusiast out there. Mixing different elements from different genres of cinema but not in the most tasteful way, this flick will certainly leave you with a wondering open mouth for its whole part. Hats off to director Ed Wood, who was not a talented man at all but, since he managed to get this thing produced, he sure was a very determined one.
  Bela Lugosi died way before this film was completed but obviously he managed to crack his way in. Also starring, Maila Nurmi (a.k.a Vampira), heavyweight Tor Johnson, Dudley Manlove as an alien, The Amazing Criswell as himself and many others for whom it was the only film they played in. This movie must have been like the horror equivalent of today's Expendables with each actor (besides Lugosi) being more self-sarcastic than the other!
Must watch this :  definitely watch this no matter what. You can actually smell the filth and rotting essence of the film. Gather up 1-2 open-minded friends and watch this on a random weekday. Look out for the abstract message of the film. I found out for me it's that anything is possible ; if aliens can resurrect people as vampires than I sure can do anything I want!

Seriously, I don't even actually play in this movie
High beyond any level of high
Stop! This is the fashion police! You are under arrest!

The Devil Bat (1940)


































  A respectable and seemingly quiet doctor-scientist performs his evil experiments in the secret laboratories of his house. His plan is to breed giant bats and use them to get revenge from the corporate world that robbed him of his glory and wealth.
  You gotta love that stuff! Classic Bela Lugosi in a film directed by Jean Yarbrough with a smashing story story. I miss that kind of imagination in today's cinema....I mean come on! Giant bats excited by an after-shave lotion go on a killing spree for the evil deeds of an evil scientist! That's why people invented cinema, not for watching stuff they watch anyway everyday! They really weren't of trying and failing back in these days!
  All hail, Bela Lugosi! Like in every other movie he plays in, he is not only a part of the movie, he actually is the movie. Look for the way he says goodbye to his enemies.Priceless. The rest of the cast merely supports him and I don't mean it in the bad way.They are good actors, they just happened to support master Lugosi. Be afraid.Be very afraid.
Must watch this : on a winter Sunday night and then ponder imaginative ways to kill your boss in the next day!!!
