Plan 9 (2015 film)


Plan 9 is a 2015 independent science fiction-comedy horror film. It serves as a parody, homage, and partial remake of the cult 1959 B-movie Plan 9 from Outer Space; widely considered one of the worst movies of all time. The film stars Brian Krause, Mr. Lobo, Monique Dupree and Camille Keaton, with appearances by Internet personalities Aaron Yonda, Matt Sloan, James Rolfe and actor Conrad Brooks, who appeared in the original film and was a member of director Ed Wood's regular company of actors. Initially intended to release in 2008, the film was released on DVD and Blu-Ray in Australia and New Zealand in February 2015, and was released on video on demand in North America approximately one year later.

Cast

reviewed the film, stating that "Plan 9 can stand on its own as a cheesy B-movie and it goes down well with friends, beer and pizza in tow, in a double bill with its forefather. For a no-budget amateurish production, the original has earned a place in history that actually merits remakes. Ed Wood would definitely approve." Glenn Cochrane of Scream magazine also reviewed Plan 9, writing "PLAN 9 has its moments but they’re few and far between and with an inconsistent pitch and a lacklustre delivery it proves to be a disjointed and uninspiring exploit of a B-movie classic." Dread Central rated the film at 3 1/2 stars, commenting that "There is no point to the existence of Plan 9 other than to make fans of the original Plan 9 from Outer Space smile ear-to-ear in appreciation."
