Should you see it? Yes, but it has fewer laughs than I wish it had.
“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."

Killers from Space (1954)
How bad is it? It's a poor science fiction film with hysterically bad aliens.
Should you see it? Yes, but it has fewer laughs than I wish it had.
Peter Graves battles aliens who show him their powers via stock footage and very cheap electronics. The aliens have ping pong ball eyes (which impedes their vision enough that the actors sometimes have trouble maneuvering) and wear hooded costumes with striped belts and mittens. It's turgid in pacing, but each time you see the aliens, they're still funny.
