I love PLAN 9 FROM OUTER SPACE and so I was hoping I would also love ROBOT MONSTER because it has a reputation for being one of the cheesiest and silliest sci-fi movies ever made. My expectations were high--so high that I was really disappointed by the movie itself. Yes, it was indeed bad BUT it was not the "so inept it was funny" bad, but more the "I gotta turn this thing off because I can feel my brain dissolving" bad. The IDEA behind ROBOT MONSTER is great--some guy wearing a gorilla suit and a diving helmet terrorizing the last inhabitants of Earth (and trying to grab some nookie along the way). The problem is after a short time, it just got REALLY REALLY REALLY boring. And, even laughing at the stupidity of the film gets old--and you just want it to end.
So my final verdict--bad, but not "funny" bad--just bad.
