    Match the films with its description of some of the worst films of all time:

    1. Plan Nine from OUter Space
    2. Fabulous World of Jules Verne
    3. Atomic Submarine
    4. Giant Claw
    5. Invasion of the Star Creatures
    6. It Conquered the World
    7. Killers from Space
    8. Starship Invasions

    A. Everything in this film was cardboard-train, boat, walls, ship, water, fish in ocean, waves, submarines-etc., filmed in Czechoslovakia in early 60s

    B. Two idiots running around in a cave after Army patrol goes to check out landing

    C. Brett Halsey, Dick Foran, Arthur Franz in this 'epic' film at North Pole

    D. B-25 model on strings in sequence near end of film

    E. Christopher Lee and Robert Vaughn star in this silly docu-drama featuring all the theories including Bermuda Triangle

    F. Peter Graves gets heart operation in cave and sees giant insects and lizards there also

    G. Lee Van Cleef, Peter Graves and Beverly Garland starred in this. Cleef talks to it on radio

    H. plates on wires, one of the main stars died and footage of him in there with lots of the body double pretending to be him with his face covered to fill it in, Gregory Walcott embarrassed to be in this, did it as a favor to the filmmaker


    Good luck, J.

    John, I'll have a go -

    The plates on wires is PLAN 9, of course. Bela Lugosi died and his double walked around with his cape over his nose.

    I think the ATOMIC SUBMARINE might be the one with Brett Halsey and Arthur Franz at the North Pole.

    THE GIANT CLAW had B-25s on wires.

    Chris Lee and Robert Vaughan were in STARSHIP INVASIONS (music by Gil Mellé, so it can't be all bad).

    So, what's left? I'm guessing -

    Checko cardboard must be the Jules Verne film.

    Peter Graves versus the insects must be IT CONQUERED THE WORLD.

    Lee Van Cleef, Peter G and Beverly G must be KILLER FROM SPACE.

    Which leaves the cave army flick as INVASION OF THE STAR CREATURES.

    I think I might have got some of them mixyoed, but give me a bronze star at least for trying.

    John, I'm afraid I am in total disagreement with you about THE FABULOUS WORLD OF JULES VERNE.

    I love the sheer poetry of Karel Zeman's nostalgic style suggesting the Hetzel edition engravings which illustrated Vernes original stories.

    A really charming movie featuring a very good score from Zdenek Liska.

    Pretty good. You just mixed up two. Rest fine. That Superdynamation and all the lines in the film for the Jules Verne one made me laugh even more. But the one scene that really cracked me up was when the guy took the old pistol-dueling type-one shot-turned a knob on it and fired a whole mess of bullets out of it like a machinegun and shot down a cardboard balloon in there. Really funny. J.
