Criswell Predicts… A New Plan 9?

Fanboy Planet

Here’s a funny bit from Northern California TV personality (and convention staple) Mr. Lobo, who has a calling near and dear to my heart — he’s one of the few, the proud, the remaining TV horror hosts. Here, he recreates Criswell, the television psychic from the 50s, and apparently he’s been doing it for a while.

Why, you might ask? Because Mr. Lobo has been shooting a remake of the one movie no one thought would ever be remade…Plan 9 From Outer Space.

Will it be more competent this time around? All I know for sure when I last talked to Lobo was that this would be more …action-packed. We’ll see… but this made me laugh.
