“Skyline: The Most Inept Alien Invasion Film Since ‘Plan 9 from Outer Space”.
Sir! You have gone TOO FAR!
Plan 9 came out in 1958.
But Monster-a-Go-Go came out in 1965. The Creeping Terror (featuring killer carpet samples from outer space) came out in 1964. Prince of Space (which possibly shouldn’t count, since it was cobbled together from Japanese kiddie serials) came out in 1959. Laserblast (which sort of counts as an alien invasion movie) came out in 1978. All of those are, I assure you, much much worse than Skyline. Granted, most of those are available in a form in which Crow and Tom Servo are there to help ease the pain, but still.
There are much worse films than Skyline out there. Let’s not get carried away, people…

I agree. Typical shortsighted sensationalism by the mainstream press.
By the way, there’s a documentary coming out on THE CREEPING TERROR next year. The film is titled CREEP! and promises to be a hilarious behind-the-scenes peek at the making of this epic schlockfest.
