Here are some outstanding (not to mention very funny) quotes from the classic scifi film: "Plan 9 From Outer Space" --- considered by many to be the "worst" movie ever made.

Criswell (narrator): "Greetings, my friend. We are all interested in the future, for that is where you and I are going to spend the rest of our lives. And remember, my friend, future events such as these will affect you in the future."

Paula Trent (to husband): "You seem to still be up THERE somewhere."

Jeff Trent: "I saw a flying saucer."

Paula: "Saucer? You mean the kind from up THERE?"

Col. Tom Edwards (referring to UFOs) : "For a time we tried to contact them by radio, but no response. Then they attacked a town---a SMALL town, I'll admit..."

Jeff Trent (to his wife): "Oh, forget about the flying saucers-- they're up THERE. But there's something in that cemetery."

Paula Trent: "The saucers are up THERE. And the cemetery's out THERE. But I'll be locked up in THERE." (points to his house)

Lt. Harper (Investigating an open grave) : "Well, let's go down and find out whose grave it is."

Kelton: "How?"

Lt. Harper: "By going down and finding out!"

Col. Edwards: "This is the most fantastic story I've ever heard."

Jeff: "And every word of it's true, too."

Col. Edwards: "That's the fantastic part of it."

(A disintegration ray instantly turns a man into a skeleton.)

Col. Edwards: "What do you make of that?"

Lt. Harper: "You got me. He didn't look that way a minute ago."

Eros: You humans and your stupid minds! Stupid! Stupid!’

(Harper, Trent and Edwards confront the aliens, Eros and Tanna.)

Eros: "You do not need guns. They would be of no use to you now."

Lt. Harper: "They've been mighty useful before on flesh and blood-- and you two look like you've got a LOT of both!"

Detective: "One thing's sure, Clay is dead, murdered, and somebody's responsible."

Eros: You do not need guns.

Jeff Trent: Maybe we think we do.

Colonel Edwards: Why is it so important that you want to contact the governments of our earth?

Eros: Because all you of Earth are idiots!

Jeff Trent: Now you just hold on, Buster.

Eros: No, you hold on! First was your firecracker, a harmless explosive. Then your hand grenade: you began to kill your own people, a few at a time. Then the bomb. Then a larger bomb: many people are killed at one time. Then your scientists stumbled upon the atom bomb, split the atom. Then the hydrogen bomb, where you actually explode the air itself. Now you can arrange the total destruction of the entire universe served by our sun: The only explosion left is... the Solaranite.

Colonel Edwards: Why, there's no such thing!
