Lobster Man from Mars(1990)

Lobster Man from Mars is a sci-fi comedy that follows a struggling film student pitching his absurd movie to a producer desperate for a tax write-off. The film-within-a-film centers on a bizarre premise: Mars is losing air, so its government dispatches the fearsome Lobster Man to Earth to steal the planet's atmosphere. A mad scientist, a resourceful girl, and a military colonel band together to stop the extraterrestrial crustacean's scheme. Equal parts campy and inventive, Lobster Man from Mars plays with B-movie tropes and low-budget ingenuity, delivering laughs through its earnest embrace of pulp sci-fi absurdity. The framing device—a student filmmaker's pitch—adds another layer of meta humor to this wonderfully weird creature feature.
