Plan 9 from Outer Space
“Unspeakable horrors from outer space paralyze the living and resurrect the dead!”

Higher CrapScores mean more entertainingly bad. How we score movies.
Aliens raise the dead to save the universe, but the cardboard-looking graveyard is fighting its own losing battle with credibility. Ed Wood's solemn warnings, bargain spacecraft and mismatched footage make this tiny apocalypse wonderfully hard to take seriously.
