There's a difference between making a bad movie by accident that turns out to be so bad it's good, and making a bad movie on purpose that is just there.
The makers of this film clearly have a love of the work of Ed Wood, Jr., often considered the "Worst Director of All Time". But while Wood's movies were often bad due to his lack of resources, this movie is intentionally bad by way of imitation, and in the process, loses some of the charm.
The plot is that evil aliens come to Earth with their pet monster, but after being shot down by stock footage, they crash in a small, whiter than white small town, and the monster escapes. The Female alien goes around shooting people with her ray gun that turns them into Spirit Halloween Decorations, while the male learns the lessons of love. This movie is kind of a mashup of "Plan 9 from Outer Space" and "Teenagers from Space".
And... well, most of the joke just don't land, because it just lacks the sincerity without talent that Wood and directors like him had in producing C-Movies in the 1950's.
