Ed Wood may not have much talent in film making, but he had the passion, he was not afraid to chase his dream, and even if he failed, failed again and again, being chased out from the director's office to theators, he still had the passion to do what he thought he was born to do... and that's how we should remember Ed, a man who had the guts to chase his dream

Ed Wood movies are just full of energy, even if they are rushed, low budgeted and sort of made up on the spot. Seeing the Tim Burton movie helps, but just by watching Wood's own movie you can get an understanding of all the problems he went through and how it's a miracle that these movies were actually produced

@MrOnethroughTen I think Ed Wood's movies suffered primarily from very low budgets and tight production schedules... not that I think he would have made high art if given millions... but he shows off a lot more gusto and enthusiasm and creativity per dollar than most of Hollywood Blockbusters. A whole lot of what goes into making a 'good' movie is being able to hire skilled/experience professionals... which Mr. Wood just couldn't afford.

Bullets bounce of their bodies. Rockets, missiles, jets cannot stop their death ships.

@MariosGuy not all movies from this era were horrible. in fact the 30's, 40's, and 50's were hollywoods golden era (this movie was made in 1959). even today with all the technology we have, bad movies are still being made. they will always be around no matter what.

@TheGreenerman Hardly. This movie is hilariously bad. It has a certain charm to it, since it is HILARIOUSLY bad. It is the butt of so many jokes. It is a legend in its own amateur, abysmal right. It needs to be crap to be good.

FWIW "The Day the Earth Stood Still" (the original) is this movie done smartly and excellently. So just watch that instead.

Notice how American Flight 5812 turns into American Flight 812....great continuity. Ed Wood for President!

Why hasn't someone tried to update this BOMB?  They blew it remaking "The Day The Earth Stood Still" - It can only get better from this platform

I can't see the strings holding the saucer.

Worst movie ever made is Pyrates, with Kevin Bacon and Kyra, whose love is so hot that every time they get it on something catches fire around them. Why was this flick made, why was it given the go ahead to be made, why was it financed? Horrible movie.
