It looks like history is about to repeat itself.

This story is so rich that I don’t mind giving these guys some free publicity. I think it’s hysterical and I swear I couldn’t have made it funnier if I tried to make this up myself.

Someone is finally going to do a remake of the infamous Plan 9 from Outer Space.

I found this via the cool site i09.com but it originated at JoBlo.com. According to them a production company called Darkstone Entertainment is behind the planned remake of the notorious “so bad, it’s good” classic by director Ed Wood.

Now way back in March 2006 I actually wrote a short piece saying that I would actually support a remake of Plan 9 from Outer Space if one was ever attempted. So why am I finding this story so funny?
