"Plan Nine From Outer Space" has gotten a lot of press for being the all-time worst film ever made.
That, of course, was before "It's Alive" was foisted off on the public. Kirk can't save it -- no one can. It's one of those that is so bad, it's actually fun to watch. Just when you think it has reached the depths of incompetence, it surprises you with a new low.
It is tempting to compare "the couple" in "It's Alive" with Rocky Horror Picture Show's lovebirds -- at least the two movies START the same way. But the couple in this monster(ous) movie seem to have nothing in common with each other. Their relationship rings false from Frame One, so when one or the other of them gets into trouble later, no one cares, least of all the audience.
Terrible direction, acting, script, creature suit and glaringly bad lighting! This one loses in all categories.
