S1 E4 - Plan 9 from Outer Space (1957): An Edward D. Wood Jr. Disaster

Flying saucers! Undead ghouls! Stock footage galore! This week on Misery Loves Movies, we’re diving headfirst into one of the most infamous bad movies of all time—Plan 9 from Outer Space (1957). Directed by the legendary Edward D. Wood Jr., this sci-fi/horror trainwreck follows a group of aliens using "Plan 9" (aka resurrecting the dead) to stop humanity from creating a doomsday weapon. But with wobbly gravestones, nonsensical dialogue, and some of the most hilariously awful performances ever, it's no wonder this film has earned its reputation as the best worst movie ever made.Join us as we break down the absurdity, the behind-the-scenes chaos, and why Bela Lugosi appears…sort of. Will Mary survive another cinematic disaster, or will the end credits not come soon enough?Follow us on Instagram @miserylovesmoviespod and email us at [email protected] to tell us your favorite terrible films.
