Viewing Notes

This was the midnight slot movie to replace PLAN 9 FROM OUTER SPACE in Paul’s “Where’s B-Fest” event. I didn’t watch along with the broadcast but decided to throw it on this morning while cataloging since it’s available via Prime. I’ve seen it before and it’s quite awful and a good replacement choice for Plan 9. I do like this robot since I grew up with that image despite not having seeing the movie.
