| Absolute top tier Tor content. And....an interesting movie. This film is most infamous for the fact that all the dailog was dubbed after shooting, for some reason. It's very jarring to watch, and it's not very engaging either. Pretty terrible movie. HOWEVER!
I find it really fun that Tor's character was a scientist before being reduced to his usual archtype. It conjures the image of Tor doing science in a lab....cute...
The reason I like Tor in this so much is just that he's in it a lot. He's sort of the central figure (sort of), and he looks pretty dang great in it, too. Plus, there's a scene at the end of Tor petting a little jackrabbit. Like holy shit. This movie is credited as being the "final nail in the coffin" of Tor's career, which is deeply sad, but it does seem like he enjoyed being in these terrible movies, and I love that for him. |

| Plan 9 really has a special charm that defies all odds. I think it's because it was dubbed "THE worst movie of all time" despite absolutely not being the worst movie of all time.
As a result, I have a strange empathy for the movie. I love how baffling yet endearing the film is. Plus, we love Vampira, don't we folks.
As for the Tor du jour- He really isn't in it very much. Of course, his real life house famously is. Tor is in there a bit, but overall he just plays his usual archtype for a couple scenes. Still excellent, but could be better. Rest in Peace, Bela Lugosi. |

| Hahaha man this movie is terrible! It's really fun, tho!! The "monster" is literally just an octopus. Like a normal one. It rules so much. Honestly, I had trouble staying interested towards the end, but there's some silly nonsense in this flick.
Tor is really cute in this movie. All his scenes are good :) |

| Probably the least interesting of these movies so far, and the most limited setting. It's a really good MST3K episode, though.
Tor is barely in this one, but the scenes he does have are excellent. I mean, it's got arguably his most famous line, "Time for go to bed". It's all worth it for that alone. |

| THIS MOVIE IS SO FREAKING FUN!!!!!!! I watched it one day, and then immediately watched it again the next day. I can't believe this movie was almost never released...It was made in 1958 but wasn't released until 1984 (which is why it doesn't have any good movie posters, unfortunately).
LIKE, OKAY, it's probably not supposed to be hilarious...I don't think Ed Wood meant for the seance scene to be so funny, but it is nonetheless. It's so worth watching the whole movie. If you see the seance scene out of context, it just doesn't hit the same. Man. Dude. It's incredible. But also! It isn't just unintentionally funny, it's also a really fun premise that's actually executed kind of well. A scam artist is running fake seances, but there are real ghosts in the house that he doesn't know about. EXCELLENT premise! I mean, okay, it's still Ed Wood, so it's still pretty bad, but it's SO charming and entertaining. Unfortunately, Tor isn't in this one very much. When he is on screen, he's a delight. It just isn't enough Tor. It's not a movie I'd watch for Tor, it's a movie I'd watch for floating trumpets playing terrible music. |
