 Plot Synopsis by Justin: Aliens, concerned that we might annihilate the universe by creating a bigger form of atomic bomb, have already attempted eight plans to stop us. Plan Nine involves bringing the dead back as ghouls to karate chop some sense into people, which begs two questions: a) What were Plans One through Eight? and b) Are there Plans Ten and beyond? I like to think that the plans started out fairly normal. Plan One was like “Ask nicely,” Plan Two was something along the lines of “Offer bribes.” By Plan Eight, things started getting surreal. Plan Thirteen must be “Train badgers in the ancient art of mime, then release them in a dentist convention in Tucson, where they will mime the Battle of Hastings while dressed as Stu Sutcliffe and Glen Matlock.” Anyway, once the zombies start bothering people, the cops show up to investigate, led by Inspector Clay (Tor Johnson, best remembered these days as a Halloween mask) who is quickly killed. Clay, now a zombie himself, kidnaps Paula, the young wife of Jeff Trent, an airline pilot who lives right next door to the cemetery. Jeff goes off to rescue her, only to find a UFO. He gets in a philosophical talk with Eros, the peevish alien in charge which degenerates into a fistfight. Earth wins. |
