Another Plan from Outer Space

Monotonous. Spent maybe $200 on props. Characters just talk talk talk.

I really enjoyed this sci-fi adventure film. It had a little bit of everything including lots of "conflict" when things start going bad. Excellent cast and a few surprise twists & turns along the way including a big twist at the end of the film! (Sorry... no spoilers, you'll have to see this film for yourself). :)

Wasn't that keen on it to be honest. I certainly wouldnt recommend this to my pals or host a bad movie night with this as the feature presentation.

I watched this movie on the same day that I watched "Ares 11". Both had the same problem - they would have been better as part of an anthology series. That fact annoyed me a lot while watching "Ares 11" but a lot less so watching this one. This movie was a bit slow at times but wasn't boring overall. I'd prefer to give it 6.5

Most of the acting was good, but some of it wasn't. Some aspects of the story weren't very original, but I think it was put together in a somewhat unique way.

I liked the music a lot. It reminded me of 1950's Sci Fi and "The Twilight Zone". It helped set the right mood and tone. Being in black and white, it was probably supposed to have a 1950's look.

I did not see any correlation between the title (takeoff on Plan 9 from Outer Space?) and the movie. This is just an extended variation of a typical classic Twilight Zone sci-fi episode with a twist at the ending. It is very low budget - below most TV shows Except for a helmet and the junk radio, there are no other real space props in the movie. The space helmet did not even connect in any way to the space suit (just a blue jump suit) so what value was the helmet?

Most of the movie plays out in the desert where they walk around the likely to be hot jumpsuit (save for one female). There is the usual drama of who is in charge the and quest for water.

Toward the end there is a scene with two law enforcement officers. On one, the uniform was poorly fitting and the top shirt button could not be fastened. I could not tell if this was intentional or not.
