Movie Review by Movie Addict
August 27th, 2007

The worst film ever made

Narrator: A man runs, someone shoots at him

A search of Internet databases produced the following: "An incoherent film by Coleman Francis shot silently with added narration. It features a semi-nude prologue completely unrelated to the rest of the film, and a scientist turning into a monster played by Tor Johnson. Leonard Maltin's TV and Movie Guide calls it "one of the worst films ever made".[3] Bill Warren said "It may very well be the worst non-porno science fiction movie ever made."[4] Numerous amateur reviews of Plan 9 from Outer Space have cited this film as an example of something worse. Also featured on Mystery Science Theater 3000." I completely agree. I have never seen such trash and wonder why it was ever brought to the screen. The dialog added was absolutely atrocious and repetitive. The action was totally unbelievable. There were so many things that just couldn't happen in this film, you would list every scene if you described them.

Narrator: Flag on the moon. How did it get there?

This was the last film for Tor Johnson, whose career started in 1934. He also starred in Plan 9 From Outer Space, which was infinitely better than this film.

Narrator: Always on the prowl. Looking for something or somebody to kill. Quench the killer's thirst.

Just like Plan 9, everyone should see this film to say they have experienced Grade Z.

Narrator: Boys from the city. Not yet caught by the whirlwind of Progress. Feed soda pop to the thirsty pigs.
