However, the space soldier Eros and her mate Tanna use an electric device to resurrect them both and the strong Inspector Clay that was murdered by the couple. Their intention is not to conquest Earth but to stop mankind from developing the powerful bomb “Solobonite” that would threaten the universe.

Viewing Notes

The second part of that tradition is the midnight screening of Ed Wood’s Plan 9 from Outer Space (1958), which has reached a near Rocky Horror-like magnitude with the customary callouts and props. Viewing this legendary bad film in this environment might be the only way to endure repeat viewings. Participation includes such things like shouting “Bela!” when the real Bela Lugosi appears and “Not Bela!” when his stand-in is onscreen; shouting “Tor!” whenever Tor Johnson is onscreen; shouting “Hot!” when Vampira appears. Of course, the big thing when there’s a flying saucer, everyone throws decorated paper plates into the air. Hundreds of plates, many with some very creative images and words, are tossed making for a very entertaining experience during a dreadful film.
