So bad they're good SciFi movies?

I have a weakness for SciFi movies that are bad enough that they are entertaining to watch (example: Killer Klowns from Outer Space). Any recommendations of ones I might find on Netflix, YouTube, etc.?

“The Man who changed his mind” 1936 is a nice little film on youtube that you might enjoy Canadian, maybe a bit too old for your liking but the print is remastered and easy to watch. i liked it, but then I was always a great fan of Boris Karloff. A good story and I wonder why it was never remade, some of the crap they’re churning out now is terrible, they are really hard up for new ideas.

Plan 9 From Outer Space - voted one of the worst movies of all time. Bela Lugosi who starring, died halfway through the making of it and he was replaced by an `actor` who perpetually covered his face with a cape, Dracula style.

Bloody awful.

If feel like wasting about an hour of what's left of your life, here it is.

I still love all the old fifties Sci-Fi films but I can't bear the cheap rubbish they show on the Sci-Fi channel. they are so bad that they are not worth watching. God knows where they get all the crap actors from.

Funny enough Judd I was just thinking about that film, Ed Wood a real weirdo himself, I believe he made that film in five days, Orson Welles once jokingly said of him “He is the only man on earth who could make a movie for less than you paid in to see a movie”



Here’s a few quotes from when he was making the film, I would have loved to have been a fly on the wall.


Edward D. Wood, Jr.: We don't have a permit. Run!

Edward D. Wood, Jr.: You know, you're, you're much scarier in real life than you are in the movie.
Bela Lugosi: Thank you.

Kathy O'Hara: Eddie's the only fella in town who doesn't pass judgment on people.
Edward D. Wood, Jr.: That's right. If I did, I wouldn't have any friends.

Edward D. Wood, Jr.: Bela, what's in the needle?
Bela Lugosi: Morphine. With a demerol chaser.
