Why Plan 9 from Outer Space is an Awesome Movie!

Question: What do you get when you take the Addams Family, Twilight Zone, and Flash Gordon and mix it with the hope of Star Wars and the random zaniness of Guardians of the Galaxy -- then cover it with the pure joy of movie making? 

Answer: You get PLAN 9 FROM OUTER SPACE! 

Rarely is there a movie that went so wrong that it ultimately went so right! From its hilarious storyline to the characters that could never be duplicated -- even in the Marvel universe, director ED WOOD created a movie loved by film enthusiasts worldwide for more than half a century! Plan 9 from Outer Space is a testament to tenacity. And loads of fun!! 

The movie was so iconic that in 1994, Tim Burton created an Oscar-winning film called ED WOOD about the making of PLAN 9. Jonny Depp was cast in the leading role as the hapless 1950s movie director. 

But this is the original from 1957, Presented in its rare original wide-screen format with many added perks that would spark the imagination of any audience member lucky enough to witness this event! 

A brand new live score based on some of the most incredible music ever written. 

And now -- in the 4th Dimension of high voltage effects and SCENT-O-VISION where sight and scent come together! 

Add a real LIVE orchestra presenting the music right in front of you in the theater, and you get an experience that would make any film and music fan stand and cheer!
