Okay – it’s not a “masterpiece”. It’s actually hailed as “the worst movie ever” (though I’ve seen worse). But Edward D. Wood Jr’s Plan 9 From Outer Space will be hitting Blu-Ray on March 6th!

The gaffes and errors and incompetence should be stunning in 1080P! I find myself wondering if they actually fund a good source print for this thing or if it will be an uprezzed conversion.

In the film, “Aliens fear the human race will develop a deadly “solaranite bomb.” After eight failed attempts, Plan 9 is their scheme to reanimate earth’s dead to build a zombie army and stop the earthlings from destroying the universe.”

There are no disc specifications yet, but I don’t see how we can get a better bit of insight than Tim Burton’s 1994 Ed Wood provided.

If you’ve never seen the film, you at least owe yourself the favor of hitting the jump and checking out the trailer. READ MORE

“Can your heart stand the shocking facts about Graverobbers from Outer Space?” That’s the question on the lips of the narrator of this tale about flying saucers, zombies and cardboard tombstones. A pair of aliens, angered by the “stupid minds” of planet Earth, set up shop in a California cemetery. Their plan: to animate an army of the dead to march on the capitals of the world. (The fact that they have only managed to resurrect three zombies to date has not discouraged them.) An intrepid airline pilot living near the cemetery must rescue his wife from this low-budget terror. “Can you prove it *didn’t* happen?”
