Should you see it? Yes.
“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds."

The Creeping Terror (1964)
How bad is it? Some have called it the worst movie of all time. (It's not.)
Should you see it? Yes.
This is a standard low budget science fiction film with one of the worst monsters ever created. The front part of it is leafy and looks like the outline of the man that's in it. The back of it is huge and looks like a bunch of extras bent over under a sheet - because that's what it is. It moves so slowly that those it attacks have to stand still to be eaten (it's been reported that they have to aid themselves into its maw, but I didn't see that - and, though there's a still showing a leg under the monster, I didn't spot that either). The plot is standard, the acting poor, the dialogue laughable - it's the monster that makes this film.
Should you see it? Yes.
