Plan 9 from Outer Space!

Many of you have experienced Plan 9 from Outer Space before, but have you ever seen the COLORIZED version?

Full disclosure: I’m not sure if it this was an official release or just a fan edit, but either way, it works. The fact that the colorization is a little “off” suits the film, too. This is, of course, one of the most famously bad movies of all time — but that doesn’t mean it’s without its charms!

I first saw this film in my very early 20s. I was on a “date,” which I’m putting in quotes because it was more like me and a female friend having a phony date, as we both knew we could only remain compatible for a few hours once every six months, and spent our remaining time kibitzing about our real personal lives via instant message. (Yeah, instant message. This was the early 2000s.)

Anyway, that’s how I’ve come to associate Plan 9 with cheap boxed wine and awkward make-out sessions.

…which leads me to tonight’s SURVEY.

In the comments, connect some odd personal memory to any horror movie, Halloween TV episode or spooky cartoon. Can be from recent years, from childhood, whatever! Basically, if you can’t look at a VHS copy of Child’s Play 3 without remembering the time you watched it while eating pineapple pizza for the first and last time, I wanna hear about it. Dig back, and then toss up a comment!
