From what I heard, the actor playing the police officer waving his gun around wanted to see if Ed Wood was taking it seriously or would call him out on it, so he purposely waved the gun around, and to his surprise, Ed said nothing about it.

Another line from Criswell's intro was, "We're all inrerested in the future, because that's where you and I will spend the rest of our lives." Can't argue with that.

In Quebec Canada, there are still little fenced squares of ground, consecrated by the church, out in the woods along paths. They are leftover from colonial times and are there (supposedly) so that is you were chased by a werewolf or vampire through the woods, you could jump over the low fence to the holy ground and be safe, because they can’t get you there. Simpler times indeed.
Vintage car enthusiasts will note that the cop car scene not only keeps switching from night to day, the cop car itself keeps switching back and forth between a '54 and a '57 Ford, before finally settling on a '56 Ford Crown Victoria.
Me: "Grandpa! There are UFO's in the sky, vampire-zombies swarming the graveyard, and dead bodies everywhere. It's the apocalypse!". Grandfather: "Boy, in the 50's we called that Tuesday". Times certainly have changed.
Yeah, rather than this Alien telling the human again how "stupid" he is for resorting to violence Mr. High Intelligence Extraterrestrial starts swinging back 1950's style. 😄
I was friends with Conrad Brooks (who played a cop in several of Ed's film including this one). We saw "Ed Wood" together at the Los Feliz theater. He has a cameo as a bartender in the scene where Ed Wood meets Orson Welles.
You mean Kelton, the perpetually crestfellen policeman? Chief: "Someone needs to investigate these sightings! Kelton?" Kelton: "Yes boss?" Chief: "Tell Henderson to go investigate these sightings!" Kelton: *crestfellen* "yes sir,.." 😂
I was on the set of Ed Wood the day Bill Murray was there, the wrestling scene. Great guy who doesn’t tolerate fools or complainers. When background started moaning as the amount of takes grew higher (Tim Burton standard) he turned , half-serious, half-joking, “Hey, at least you don’t have to eat a hot dog every single take!” People got a laugh, no complaining after that.
Yeah, such a "great guy"... Did he molest any actresses or assault crew members that day too, as he is wont to do? Bill Murray is a sociopathic piece of shit!
14:30 - I just noticed this from watching the blu-ray where it gives you the option for subtitles that contain trivia for the movie. Look at how the man's cape starts to fall off and how non-Bela Lugosi quickly puts it back on. It's a testament to how Ed Wood didn't believe in doing second takes unless the first take was completely unusable. I can't unsee it now, hahaha.
At first I thought it was just the stand-in doing strange hand movements for his attack. Sure enough now all I see is him reaching for the corners of the cape collar. I wonder if he muttered anything as it happened, perhaps it rhymed with "oh spit".
There's so many little moments like that in this movie, it's simply fascinating to try and find them all. Tor Johnson clearly being stuck whilst trying to climb from the grave is another classic one. I think the best "stand in" moment from an Ed Wood movie comes from "Bride of The Monster" where Bela Lugosi's stunt double can clearly be seen wearing huge platform boots (like something from the 1970s) to appear the same height as Bela.
@@fattiger6957 Very true, and even rehearsing the actors would cost money. A less ambitious writer/director might've scaled down what he was attempting to do, but pointing that out would be nitpicking. 😉
That's what I been thinking and loosing my mind over. How does he not see it, it's not even one scene after another but in the same for damn scene it's both day and night it's fucking hilarious.
Duke Moore as Lt. John Harper's trigger discipline is HORRIFYING. He was a 21st-century "responsible gun owner" NRA member six decades before that became a meme.
Given Ed Wood’s military experience he would damned well have known about how to handle guns. I expect that he was too focused on the things in the film that mattered to him, and that it might not have even registered in his (stupid, stupid) mind…
What I really love about this movie is that it's on SPEED. Normally with bad movies, they can be sooooo slow. And so boring. But here, it feels like you are on a speedrun. Things constantly happen. It's honestly hilarious.
Always liked the fact that Mrs. Pilot responds to Mr. Pilot saying he’s seen a flying saucer by saying "Saucer" and immediately putting down the saucer she’s been holding.
For some reason, I like to believe the reason why scenes in this movie kept switching from night to daytime is because the sun was so drunk off its ass that it just unpredictably shined its light whenever the hell it wanted to.
The woman who played the thin-waisted vampire was "Vampira", a woman with a local Los Angeles TV show who Elvira copied later. She sued Elvira but lost. Her character on Plan Nine had speaking parts but Maila Nurmi refused to say them because she didn't want to sully her Vampira character with Ed Wood's terrible dialogue. Fun fact: She was dating James Dean before he died.
I can't be too hard on either Ed Wood or this movie. For one thing, Wood, in addition for being (from what I've heard) a really nice guy, seems like someone who loved movies and put his heart and soul into making movies despite utter lack of talent and resources. In a strange way, its like a child exitedly showing you its crayon-drawings. You just have to love them. For another, damn it, "Plan 9" is _not boring._ It _entertains,_ probably not in the intented way, but it still manages to bring joy to people over 60 years after its release. There are countless movies which literally had several thousand times its budget and are better by any measurable standard... but are just dull.
"Modern women!" "Yeah, they've been that way all down through the ages." It's not easy to agree with someone and simultaneously contradict them, but Ed Wood found a way.
Great job on an old classic. There’s so much material there, that you could have done 2 hours easily. Shot for shot and scene for scene it is a magnificent marvel of film making. There are worse movies but there is only one Ed Wood. I might suggest one of his other gems “Bride of the Monster” . Hell, his whole catalog is up for grabs.
Your editing skills are really top notch. I especially enjoy the audio quality in your videos. I usually hate background music, but yours is so well done I can't imagine the videos without it.
I feel that with everything going on right now, aliens coming to earth wouldn’t be the wildest thing. If anything, they’d probably come to pick up their cousins.
I absolutely love this movie. I find that The Room and Troll 2 are better with crowds while 9 and The House on Haunted Hill are better bad movies for just chilling.
For The House on Haunted Hill --> Which one is the bad one? Is the original already bad or is it just the remake that's bad? Because I've been kinda wanting to watch the original.
Deniz Demir Don’t consider either to be bad in the way any of these others. First is nice late 50s mystery, not bad, just low budget. The remake is entertaining, but just average. Neither are so bad they’re good.
Ed legit did one thing actually good and had really nice police costumes. Much better than we've seen other "cops" dressed...terrible lyrics. So, cudoos for that, Ed.
FYI, Joanna Lee, the actress who played Tanna (the female alien), went on to a TV writing career and created the Great Gazoo for the original run of The Flintstones.
the saddest part about edd wood is that he died of a hart attack and when he yelled "i can't breath" his wife ignored him thinking he just wanted attention........
It was unprecedented how Plan 9 would become so famous for being bad! My Brother and I have watched it so many times and we’ve always found it hilarious just how seriously this film took itself at the time! The best/worst line of all time has to be when the *brilliant* Lieutenant Harper says: “But one thing's sure. Inspector Clay is dead. Murdered. And somebody is responsible!” You know, as opposed to all of those murders by tree trunk or Post-It note. I can’t... 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
The Rifftrax of this movie was great, and so were the other times on MST3K when they watched an Ed Wood film: Bride of the Monster, The Violent Years, The Sinister Urge
I have seen this movie so many time I don't know why and I never noticed this before @ 14:12 a giant fishing bob taped to a one of those flashing lights they use on old road warning signs. Top shelf props there Ed.
Bela wasn't addicted to morphine or methadone (that he replaced the morphine with) at the time the test footage, that was used in the movie, was filmed. He had detoxed and been in treatment the year before. He was still using alcohol to self-medicate the sciatic pain he was constantly in, that was the lasting effect of injuries he had suffered in World War I as a Austro-Hungarian soldier on the Russian front. Bela's real name was Béla Blaskó, he used "Lugosi" as a stage name, as a tribute to his hometown Lugos. Today it's spelled Lugoj and is now part of Romania. Back then, it was still in the Kindom of Hungary, as a part of the Austrian-Hungarian Dual Monarchy. WWI redrew a lot of borders on The European map and made a lot of people "foreigners" in the places they had lived all their lives. Bela was one of them. The first four decades of Lugosi's life, before he did any of the things he's now remembered for, before he came to New Orleans, working as a sailor on a merchant ship to pay for the passage, would make a fascinating TV series. He had a wild, dramatic, and sometimes tragic life!
I mlm a brand new sub and I love everything about this channel. You let me enjoy bad movies I have never seen before without having to see the whole thing. I have been watching your channe ppl for 3 days straight. Thank you for the entertainment of this 27 year old from Cincinnati. God bless 🤎Gabe🤎
Well I attempted to eat whilst watching this and almost choked 20 times from laughing so hard.. so thanks for that Mark! Do more of these old movie reviews please they are the best!!
He says like one line of dialogue in the entire movie, I actually saw that in the theatre as a kid btw, half the audience was laughing and cheering, the other half looked like they had just lost a loved one.
I owe a big thanks to my high school friends back in '84 who got it on VHS because The Misfits had a song called "Plan 9" and that's what introduced me to crazy movies. Oh and one of them worked at a video rental shop. One of those little Mom & Pop stores before Hollywood, West Coast & Blockbuster chains shut em down.
I like to think that Chris Nolan included the lack of day/night continuity in the stock exchange heist scene in "The Dark Knight" as an homage to "Plan Nine from Outer Space".
Love the black & white, the drink in hand, and the 50s era suit that you slowly remove and roll up your sleeves as the movie/review takes its toll on you. Well done!
I remember writing the French subtitles for Ed Wood movies when they were remastered and reissued during the 90, surprisingly difficult gig. Bad dialogue is hard to translate!
8:34 Field officers are normally in a headquarters located behind the battle front. If the officer is ranked below an O-4, they are with a forward observer detachment so they can call in fire to a forward location. That seems like a real world example. I served in the 3rd BN 4th Marines. Ooh Rah!
I took a course on horror movies while I was in university. Had a lecture on B-movies that included watching this film. And then I wrote a paper about it. I liked that course.
I always felt kind of sorry for Ed Wood. For some reason I feel more for him than other hacks like Neil Breen or Tommy W. He had passion and a desire to make something good but had no talent. Glen or Glenda might have come close to being something decent but Wood just couldn't pull off what he must have seen in his mind as a deeply personal story. Really a shame how he ended up.
I actually did a Rod Sterling impression on one of the takes but cut it out during editing as I felt it didn’t fit. I realized I would have had to do the entire video putting on that impression and I don’t think it would have worked as well as I thought lol
Hey Mark, you once said you watch all these terrible movies so we don't have to. Please review Caligula (1979). It's considered one of the most epic fails in the history of Hollywood. The actual version has a 210-minute runtime, but the 156-minute version is the most common one. Every person who worked on the film, including the entire cast and director, have separated their names from it and refuse to talk about it. From Wikipedia: "Caligula is notable for being one of the few films Roger Ebert ever walked out of-he walked out 2 hours into its 170-minute length after feeling "disgusted and unspeakably depressed". Please watch this disaster so we don't have to! Thanks!!
I just found a copy of it, I’ll be watching it soon, right after I’m done with producing this next series of videos. Can’t say for sure I’ll make a video on it but I’ll definitely check it out
Also technically Criswell could not be contradicting himself, if he meant "this happened and you better get ready cause it sure as shit is gonna happen again".
You clean up nice, dude. But yeah, this movie is a treasure chest. You can watch it a dozen times and always find a jewel. Like, for instance, I was watching it with my dad once when he noticed that the map in the military office was made by a railroad company. And in later scenes the logo had been removed! Good times.
This is a lovely homage to Plan 9. I have watched this film many times but still you pointed out some wonderful new details. Most "bad films" are bad, but this one transcends such definitions. ... On another matter, I think you could be very successful touring as a stand up discussing these films.
It was actually dark rum inside of a smoked glass, so it looks darker than it really is. I probably should have just used iced tea though because after the first few sips I realized I hadn’t eaten anything all day and if I wanted to finish the filming at a decent time I should stop drinking lol

He enjoyed a pretty good career as a prophet of the future on TV. He didn't take himself too seriously, never actually claimed he had a "gift".

Back in the 50s if you saw a vampire, you didn't ask questions, you just opened fire. Things were simpler back then.
To be fair, they could be commies, better safe than sorry.
Now days, the vampire will scream you're 'vampirephobic' unless you let him bite you in the neck.

One of the actors was named
Dudley Manlove. Dudley Man-Love!
Ridiculous! Just Ridiculous!
...Do-Right or Done-Right
You should look into Criswell, in real life he was a pretty interesting character.
With limited to borderline non existent knowledge of criswell jr , I'd say he was as bonkers in life as he was in this movie.

Move over Nostradamus
I mlm a brand new sub and I love everything about this channel. You let me enjoy bad movies I have never seen before without having to see the whole thing. I have been watching your channe ppl for 3 days straight.
Thank you for the entertainment of this 27 year old from Cincinnati.
God bless
🤎Gabe🤎
Well I attempted to eat whilst watching this and almost choked 20 times from laughing so hard.. so thanks for that Mark!
Do more of these old movie reviews please they are the best!!
Choked,hard,thanks for that Mark!Not the best choice of words but made my day.
@@sebastiansochanski Well I am a polite woman you know! Not like those modern women in the movie.
@@ukmedicfrcs I don't doubt that, it's just boys minds work a bit different.Stay safe and support Mark's endeavour.Ta Ta.
UK MedicFRCS - Ugh, those pesky modern women.
@@sebastiansochanski Oh I love a boys mind and I was only being cheeky in my comment. Take care!
Can your review “No Retreat, No Surrender”?
Jean Claude’s finest acting
He says like one line of dialogue in the entire movie, I actually saw that in the theatre as a kid btw, half the audience was laughing and cheering, the other half looked like they had just lost a loved one.
When I saw this in the theater back in the 90's, we eventually started shouting, "Day...Night...Day...Night" when the scene changed.
I owe a big thanks to my high school friends back in '84 who got it on VHS because The Misfits had a song called "Plan 9" and that's what introduced me to crazy movies. Oh and one of them worked at a video rental shop. One of those little Mom & Pop stores before Hollywood, West Coast & Blockbuster chains shut em down.
Yes he is pointing that gun at himself straight Police Chief Wiggum Style.
Finger OFF the trigger, off til you shoot
I like to think that Chris Nolan included the lack of day/night continuity in the stock exchange heist scene in "The Dark Knight" as an homage to "Plan Nine from Outer Space".
12:39 Alright, thank you for making me laugh out loud so hard that probably my neighbours could hear it! Love you, Mark!
"Bride of The Monster" -- way to go, Ed!
the like dislike ratio show how good mark is, probably the man how deserve the most to go viral on you tube.
RIP dislike button
I love your commentary! Your channel is great. You and RLM are my favorites.
"By predicting what happened in the past Criswell was able to keep his accuracy well over the 50% rate"
"I thought it was nighttime, Ed!" gets me every time! 😅
Yeah I believe that stock footage is from the Marine rocket detachment during the Battle of Iwo Jima.
Ed Wood served in the marines himself, I believe.
Your return is the only good thing to come out this corona craziness. Thank you for saving my sanity.
Can't believe you're uploading on schedule, was expecting you to bail on us😂
Like he was for past 5 yrs
Love the black & white, the drink in hand, and the 50s era suit that you slowly remove and roll up your sleeves as the movie/review takes its toll on you. Well done!
I remember writing the French subtitles for Ed Wood movies when they were remastered and reissued during the 90, surprisingly difficult gig. Bad dialogue is hard to translate!
How does one say “Your stupid minds!” in French, anyway?
@@markiangooley Vous pauvres d'esprit
Considering the production values of Ed Woods movies, i would not be surprised if someone would throw dinner plates to make an UFO effect.

Field officers are normally in a headquarters located behind the battle front. If the officer is ranked below an O-4, they are with a forward observer detachment so they can call in fire to a forward location. That seems like a real world example. I served in the 3rd BN 4th Marines. Ooh Rah!
Luv the 50’s vibe you had going on in the video.
Definitely digging the B&W, you look slick man.
I took a course on horror movies while I was in university. Had a lecture on B-movies that included watching this film. And then I wrote a paper about it.
I liked that course.
Such a happy surprise to see Mark uploading regularly!😊
I have to say, Mark. That screening with you standing among the characters was amazing!
I always felt kind of sorry for Ed Wood. For some reason I feel more for him than other hacks like Neil Breen or Tommy W. He had passion and a desire to make something good but had no talent. Glen or Glenda might have come close to being something decent but Wood just couldn't pull off what he must have seen in his mind as a deeply personal story. Really a shame how he ended up.
Hearing Mark genuinely recommend Tim Burton’s “Ed Wood” and say it’s a great movie just broke my gay film loving heart.
Pure gold Mark, you had me in stitches with detective Wavy, just could't stop laughing as you were talking and him continuously waving his gun.
I dig the suit. Very Rod Serling!
I actually did a Rod Sterling impression on one of the takes but cut it out during editing as I felt it didn’t fit. I realized I would have had to do the entire video putting on that impression and I don’t think it would have worked as well as I thought lol
Martin Landau as Lugosi is one of the greatest characters in movie history.
'Pull the STRING! Pull... the STRING!'
Hey Mark, you once said you watch all these terrible movies so we don't have to. Please review Caligula (1979). It's considered one of the most epic fails in the history of Hollywood. The actual version has a 210-minute runtime, but the 156-minute version is the most common one. Every person who worked on the film, including the entire cast and director, have separated their names from it and refuse to talk about it.
From Wikipedia: "Caligula is notable for being one of the few films Roger Ebert ever walked out of-he walked out 2 hours into its 170-minute length after feeling "disgusted and unspeakably depressed".
Please watch this disaster so we don't have to! Thanks!!
Yes, that film was the graveyard of careers. It even sent McDowell off into the wilderness for twenty years
I just found a copy of it, I’ll be watching it soon, right after I’m done with producing this next series of videos. Can’t say for sure I’ll make a video on it but I’ll definitely check it out
@@FanboyFlicks Thank you for the reply, Mark! Shoot me a message if you're ever in the San Francisco Bay Area! Beer's on me!
@@FanboyFlicks It's on TH-cam. It's a strange film... Some really well done Roman bits with well known actors interspersed with very bad porn.
@@anonb4632 The producer of the movie was Bob Guccione, founder of Penthouse magazine, which probably explains how the movie turned out he way it did
06:47, They literally throw the dead body while pretending to fall! 😂
My first subscriber notification! Yay! I just watched Burton's Ed Wood last week! Really excited :)
Also technically Criswell could not be contradicting himself, if he meant "this happened and you better get ready cause it sure as shit is gonna happen again".
I was wondering when youd finally do an Ed Wood film. And you started with my favorite one.
You clean up nice, dude. But yeah, this movie is a treasure chest. You can watch it a dozen times and always find a jewel. Like, for instance, I was watching it with my dad once when he noticed that the map in the military office was made by a railroad company. And in later scenes the logo had been removed! Good times.
''Hey guys, welcome back TO the show...''
love it.
PULL DE STRINGS! PULL DE STRINGS!!!
This is a lovely homage to Plan 9. I have watched this film many times but still you pointed out some wonderful new details. Most "bad films" are bad, but this one transcends such definitions. ... On another matter, I think you could be very successful touring as a stand up discussing these films.
You're sipping a dark soda huh XD Same I am never gonna be adult enough like those in the 50's to drink the level of booze they did.
It was actually dark rum inside of a smoked glass, so it looks darker than it really is. I probably should have just used iced tea though because after the first few sips I realized I hadn’t eaten anything all day and if I wanted to finish the filming at a decent time I should stop drinking lol
@@FanboyFlicks rum 10/10 but remember it might make you feel hot/sweating and get you blushing (happens to me sometimes) which you might not want on video.
You deserve far more views. Such great production quality.
You need a meme
frolof mst3k joke it stinks 🤣
Tim Burton’s ED WOOD is his BEST FILM, in my opinion. It’s really good! The whole cast is great! “I have to take action! GOODBYE PENIS!” 🤣
