ORIGINAL INFO: Future events such as these will affect us… in 1991.
RUMINATIONS: I feel like a lot more companies should be doing this kind of thing - making sequels to old bad/b-movies like this and doing something more with the concepts presented. I’m aware of only three off the top of my head - the Plan 9 sequels talked about in this episode and the Tinglers, which I covered in a Longbox episode. And while I thought the Tinglers was okay, I felt it needed more than just two issues to play with its ideas more.
I had considered breaking out the Criswell impression again for the ending, but I kind of like the idea of someday Atop the Fourth Wall ending bookended by the Criswell bit, as I had done for the Introduction video I made years and years ago. I doubt it’ll ever happen, but it’s a neat thought.
I'm surprised "aliens use zombies to take over the world" hasn't been used as a plot more often. I remember in high school we had to write a short story based on a tabloid title. I picked "Aliens Raise the Undead" (which had a subtitle about a "Corpse Corp"). PLOT TWIST: It turned out that the aliens were us from the future, and by unleashing the zombies they unwittingly created a stable time loop that lead to their own creation!
Thomas takes a toll for the dark aliens from the future attack humans, some escape and become the aliens
Yeah, those X-COM agents are at work. Unfortunately, they have a bad habit of missing even when the alien is right in front of them.
+Matt Lipton I understood that reference
+Matt Lipton The huge question I'm asking myself now is if the idea of aliens taking over the world by resurrecting the dead was the inspiration for the Chrysalid zombies.
It feels weird to think that one of my favorite horror-elements in a video game might be inspired by this movie.
Bianca Mayer More then likely they are based after the Xenomorphs from Aliens: similar insect-like design, both reproduce by offspring that bursts out of a host body. They just have the zombies because that works better for combat.
Wow they'll make a comic for anything. Can't wait for the Manos: hands of fate comic.
Well, the aliens are officially one step closer to destroying the Earth now, I suppose.
well if Mr. Trump is an Alien... The President is an alien. Godamn America.
It would explain why he's orange and has such a poor grasp of English.
Every time Linkara makes an XCOM reference, the world alters itself to become slightly less crappy. Before he made that reference the doomsday clock was like 3 minutes ahead and Russia had already taken over half of Europe. This is how I explain my completely unreasonable excitement probably just caused by the fact someone really cool referenced something I like that isn't usually mentioned, validating my opinions. Which is really what the internet is for. Finding people who actually somehow agree with you.
Wait, that cop was scratching his head with a loaded gun?
"Yes, everything ads up *scratches head* now I just need my notes *uses his gun to fish out his note pad and tries to write down things with his gun* dammit, why isn't this thing working? *faces the gun at his face and looks down the barrel*"
R.I.P dumb cop
congratulations on her saying yes lewis
1.36 Have you ever heard of a British 60's puppet series called 'Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons'? It basically is Plan 9 done straight [The dead are reanimated to take on Scarlet]. And its still great today!
Perhaps if you patron it.
I want a comic sequel to Laserblast or Wild World of Batwoman!
Or Manos and Ro Man
+Gillian Quigley Or Zombie Nightmare, if only to see Adam West's character return.
Jake Bryant
Matt Lipton Also the Pumaman!
+Gillian Quigley Prince of Space!
Andrew Bull
Hobgoblins!
To be fair to everyone saying Plan 9 was the worst movie ever made, Batman v Superman didn't come out until 2016, so Plan 9 might have been the worst until then.
9:10 I think Linkara just lapsed into Fat Grandma for a second or two there!
Plan 9 from Outer Space comic. Who? Why? How?
PS: Congratulations on the engagement!
+TheNumnutRandomness He got engaged???
Yup, to Viga Loves Comics! Announced it yesterday, I think.
+TheNumnutRandomness where did he announce it? i checked his website and his Twitter and didnt see it
tumblr, my friend: atopfourthwall.tumblr.com/post/136554914698
TheNumnutRandomness now see, i would never think to check Tumblr. but i did after i made that comment. thanks anyways though
Personally, I think what constitutes a good movie is just being entertaining. So yeah, I think Batman & Robin is good because I was entertained.
Actually.. that's kinda how classified info works. I was in the Army and had to sign some non disclosure forms they do normally have a time limit. Like 7 years for the one i signed.
Of course they also just recenty declassified a few Civil war things so yeah
In speaking of movies people would consider "the worst," my pick is Skyline from 2010. I'm mean sure, the special effects look good and all, but what really kills it for me was the main characters, how annoying said characters become, and that cliffhanger ending that came without warning. I also call it the worst I've seen, because I actually saw it in theaters, and I've also seen films like Batman & Robin, Kazaam, Inspector Gadget, and Wild Wild West. But with those films, I knew what I was getting. Skyline however, ...Jesus Christ, was that a waste of time and money. At least I went to see Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1 a week later.
19:45- Ya got that right.
Ed Woods only flaw was: "He didn't have any money."
Seeing the comments about Linkara saying that he is a conservative.... makes you think how outdated and how subjective is ideology between time and place.
For example, you ask in my country, and we wouldn't say that democrats are the left, and republicans the right. We would say that you a have a right party..... and a far right party.
So, if you ask from our perspective, United States looks like a conservative country itself.
I am curious what defines leftist in your country as the Dems at leats preach enviromentalism, equality, medical care for all and social services for all
If Dan Quayle is a robot, then someone needs to call the IT department cause his computer brain is seriously broken.
Also, we need to revisit this comic series this year. Been too long, IMO.
He runs on Windows and they are using straight of out the box software without the patches
Would love to see this series revisited!
I still get baffled in these older videos when openly feminist, “says trans rights on a livestream”, generally LGBTQ accepting and conscious of racial issues Linkara refers to himself as a “conservative”
Disillusionment's a hell of a drug.
@@AT4W to quote the great Doctor Linksano “INDEED!”
Going back after finally learning a bit more about XCOM I can now find it funny, hah.
19:42 DEFINITELY not a shocker.
19:41 yeah I called him being a bulleron when they described what bullerons were
I love the scream from 9:02 to 9:03.
Aliens resurrect the dead in order to take over the world... isn't that the plot of Blackest Night?
Oh sh- you're right.
you're the best Linkara :3
he is
"I AM HERE TO CHEW BUBBLEGUM AND KICK ASS, AND I'M ALL OUT OF GUM!"
18:31 Does that count as nepotism?
"In 2006, Bluewater Productions created "Plan 9 From Outer Space Strikes Again!"
At least there wasn't any serial killer Lady Gaga can in it. I hope.
(Looks up After Last Season) That... that sounds incredibly stupid. Has anyone reviewed this?
XCOM needs an anime. Or a comic. Or both.
can you pls review (or at least give your opinion on ) Spider-man: Ends of the Earth
Sorry that Book does not exist in the Atop the Fourthwall verse...Spiderman was canceled with OMD
actually the aliens resurrected the dead to stop us building a bomb that used the sun's radiation that would destroy the planet the first time it was used...or was it to teach us doing so was a bad idea? I think it was one of the two.
Well, where is the comic follow-up for _The Room_ ?
Oh hai Mark
Its called All Star Room written by Frank Miller, Illustrated by Rob Leifeld and edited by Bill Jemas
“Hahaha… your costume is ridiculous!”
what was up with the lag in your cutaways?
+Gilberto Tabares It was a weird thing that started happening in my videos for a year or two whenever I rendered WMVs (my preferred video file type for a while). No idea WHY it happened - it just did. It doesn't happen anymore since I render in MP4 now.
+Gilberto Tabares Thank goodness I'm not the only one who experienced that problem. I thought it was my laptop screwing up.
+Gilberto Tabares I was started to get annoyed thinking it was my computer
The cover has the Adams family. It's Gomez, Morticia, and Uncle Fester.
Rewatching this in 2021 and that comment about Trump makes to much Sense
Wasn't aliens resurrecting the dead the plot to some Dr Who episodes?
At the very least that was the plot of Missys first story
15:43 was the movie trying to be political as well or is that just the comic?
Wow, this comic really does explain things, like Trump being an alien robot set on destroying humanity.
I am surprised that this is a thing. Very surprised. . .
Thats why he thought Murphy Brown was real (I love that show)
for some strange reason I keep singing Dirty Diana 😜
Plan 10, if you like.
12:10
Huh. Not that it changes anything, but I didn't think you were Conservative.
+Tyler Freshcorn It is a bit of a surprise. Most Conservatives wouldn't express feminist ideals, let alone openly identify as one. I honestly wish more Conservatives were like him (though I hear they're a bit saner in the UK)
+turkishvan2 Mostly because in the UK (and many other European countries), they really do lean much farther left than the USA. Hell, if you look at many of my beliefs (the aforementioned feminism thing, for one), many would probably qualify me more as a liberal.
Linkara-AtopTheFourthWall
Do you ever get strife from MRA's and the like?
Linkara is a conversative?! i want to say something about the video but i dont see that coming, i was a nice review for sure....but what?
+Keyser Soze Some wouldn't qualify me as one given many of my beliefs, but then again the Republican party has been moving more and more right for a while and it's not something I'm happy about.
haha i wasn't expecting you to respond to my comment, dont worry men you dont have to back you political opinion or anything, hey i dont even know what is an american conservative for that matter, your political situation is kinda weird, thanks for answers by way thats really nice of you, i have been seen your video for a long time, you are one of the reason i learn english actually, sadly not all your vid are subtitle. Great work men keep it that way
+Keyser Soze well I'm not Linkara, but if you would like an answer to your question Conservatives in essence are against change! But some are more right then others linkara sounds like a fiscal conservative one that like having and keeping money without goverment interference, while at the same time not following their warped moral values ( homophobia, religious docterian and the like) However i do not know the man so my oppinion of his pollitical status is exactly that. An oppinion!

The aliens are the Institute from Fallout ?
**Insert obvious election joke here**
Thanks, RoboTrump.
Cofeve
Who’s Watt?
Linkara have you ever heard of/played the game Freedom Force? Its for the pc and it's about silver age heroes. ruclips.net/video/dRRGon_VMHg/видео.html
It even had a limited Comic run with Image. Might be a good pick for a Future episode.
Except sonic screwdrivers still don't work on wood.
It's always fun to see how long our fool elect has been made fun of.
Aliens, Zombies, and world domination...... Blackest Night?
haha....tor and rip...I see what you did there..
Hey Linkara do you ever get sick while doing videos?
+Freckleslam he did once
Ohh I wish that Donald Trump was a robot.
+Clayton Dills just one magnet.
Clayton Dills Sadly he is just Putin's bitch.
I really want to think Trump has Hillary on the back of his head like Voldemort. I seriously don't know why but I do.
Anyone else think this should've been called Plan 92?
Another vid I draw far too many parallels to Fallout 4...
Slightly questioning Bethesda at this point.. if they didn't do a better job..
Did Lewis just say he was a conservative? That doesn't mesh with anything I know about his political views today. I know conservatism has changed too over the years but I doubt he'd call himself that today.
I sure as fuck would not. My conservativism has transformed over the last 12 years and now I openly hate the GOP and happily call myself a leftie.
@@AT4W thanks for the answer.
@@AT4W, wow. I know you said that you make it a point of reading all comments but you gave yourself an out for videos that were "like 3 years old". Apparently 5 isn't like 3.
XD Donald Trump being a robot is definitely no surprise there
That movie was so horrible it was actually watchable
Linkara what if you had a dream...Freddy Meets Michael Myers...not a vs until Jason Vorhees makes a appearance at the end to kill and get killed to get everybody back in hell but only its a RUclips video fan fiction....would that be cool?
that cool!
👍💯
Wait a min... Aliens raising the dead to take over the world..... THAT'S DEAD SPACE!!!!
Trump is a robot? Yeah, that makes sense.
I vaunt to correct your spine , bleh
The Trump presidency makes sense now
Sufo cofeve
"seeing as I am actually a conservative" not anymore!
Time makes fools of us all. XD
That explains a lot about Trump.
Trump! Well we all know what happened there.
Why are you a conservative? Conservatives wanted to censor Doctor Who because it encourages critical thinking
+Jon Stewart Yeah, I don't really match up with a lot of modern-day conservative thinking. XD
John McHenry I didn't realize you republicans could think
Are you serious!? They really tried that?
***** Holy crap that's a special pearl of stupidity...
+Linkara-AtopTheFourthWall That's the one thing that always puzzled me about you. You tend to be more compassionate and forward thinking than the yahoos that are currently operating the republican party. Personally, I'd rather see you run for President in 2016 instead of the guinea pig devouring alien lizards that are posing as human beings running for the GOP nomination.
100th view
your a conservative, i would not geust
+winter shadow I tend to differ greatly on a great many subjects with the main Conservative party. XD
+Linkara-AtopTheFourthWall I'd probably classify you as middle of the road in terms of politics, like myself, while alot of my views are more left (gay rights ect. ect.) i tend to keep myself away from far left stuff cuz it can be just as batshit as far right stuff
Why do some people think conservatives have a monopoly on being discriminatory. In the last few years I’ve noticed liberals who rip anyone to shreds who is conservative who they feel shouldn’t be conservatives (i.e. minorities, gay people, women, etc.). Face it. There are good people and a-holes on BOTH sides.
