Plan 9 From Outer Space Trailer - Now In Color!

1:22

Thats a strange fence in the background

0:19 Bega Lugosi is.......ashamed......

azrial, I really believe that Ed Wood was expressing his sense of humor when he made this, and most of his films. I find it strange that folks do not get his joke. Well, the saucers are up there, but you'll be in there and I'll be in there.

k..... I was talking bout the remake, it would be dumb cause it would never come near what ed wood did

i think i read somewhere that Hitch chose to do 'Psycho' in b/w because color would have been too much of a distraction..what he did with light and shadow did as much for the plot as the plot itself..and there's something to be said about b/w: i watched an old ep of 'Rawhide' from 1959, and the photography was brilliant!

Thank you disabled1955. You give evidence to my point. Color should be used only to enhance the story of the film, there needs to be a reason for it. See the film "Odds Against Tomorrow" which helps accent this iportant point of filmmaking. Besides being such a great film, the fact that it is in black and white accents the actors motions, expressions, forces the actors to act and communicate and by these means gives tension and adventure to the story.

lol good question. I know plan 10 is being discussed with the Greys & UN Representatives as we speak though.

Actually, the movie was titled "Grave robbers from Mars" originally, but the baptist church (!) was financing it (because Wood persuaded them to make it, and earn money from it to finance movies about Jesus and his disciples), but thought that grave robbing is blasphemous, so they demanded from Wood to rename the movie into "Plan 9 from outer space". The title was their idea. Silly right?

Actually, the original title was 'Grave robbers from outer space'!

Criswell, says the original title in his opening monologue of the movie, but you're right about the church objecting and getting it changed.
