Matt Brunson Film Frenzy Its notoriety extends beyond just the usual dismissals as one of the worst films ever made, as bad-movie buffs place it in the same, uh, exalted pantheon of immortal atrocities like Plan 9 from Outer Space, Robot Monster and Manos: The Hands of Fate. Rated: 1/4 Jun 13, 2021 Full Review Dennis Schwartz Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews One of the most incoherent films ever made. Rated: D Dec 3, 2008 Full Review Rob Thomas Capital Times (Madison, WI) No go-go. Rated: 0/5 Oct 6, 2005 Full Review Read all reviews

Wyatt S You ARE gonna be left in pain after you watch this! Not servere pain, fortunately, but pain all the same. You're better off watching this movie on MST3K. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 06/05/24 Full Review Blobbo X As bad as Plan 9, but not as good. Pretty bad though! Rated 2 out of 5 stars 12/30/23 Full Review brad p Strange no-budget affair Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Kevin F This has to be the worst movie I have ever seen. I was at a friends house and he he said lets watch this and that his uncle had invested in it and acted a scene or two. We were dumb struck to say the least. The worst part is I will never get that 90 minutes I wasted back. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 11/24/20 Full Review Audience Member The absolute WORST film I've ever seen, Monster A Go-Go almost isn't even a film, its so damn confusing, ineptly made, and so mind-bogglingly bad that this review can't do justice. Watch the film yourself, preferably with MST3K (to help you stay sane). This film is an experience. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Watching some of the old MST3K episodes available for streaming on Hulu and Netflix (there is a different random selection on each platform). Whether it is Joel or Mike watching these awful movies with the bots I do not envy their torture. Their snarky comments add some entertainment value, but my ratings are based on the movie's quality itself and not the commentary broadcast from the satellite of love. Dreadful shot composition and continuity. Inexplicable plot with a twist at the end that is not much of a twist. Teens having a dance party is why the title contains "Go-Go" in this cheapie monster movie. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/01/23 Full Review Read all reviews
