The blind guy's completely unconcerned "Help me." in Rocket Attack USA is so funny that you understand immediately why they were compelled to introduce stingers starting right then and there.

Further adventures in looking at an episode I watched 50 times as a teenager with new eyes: The framing story for the back half of Merlin's Shop is such a clumsily handled bit of insanity. Merlin going around asking people on the street if they've seen his toy monkey - don't worry, he's got a crude drawing that one of the PAs sketched out on notebook paper moments before filming started! Then the whole thing is resolved because Merlin finds George R.R. Martin hanging out in the park, and he has his ledger with him where he recorded the name and address of a woman who made a $20 cash transaction maybe an hour earlier! Saint Merlin not recognized by the Catholic Church.

Ring of Terror is the perfect MST ep to sleep through.zoux posted:Fugitive Alien II is on the foreverathon right now and Crow has this really annoying bit where he goes "Again?" in a really high pitched, intentionally whining voice when anyone tells the character Rocky to do something. I love Trace, he's my favorite crow and arguably my favorite member of the troupe period, but I cannot stand this bit. They're pretty few and far between, but other really grating bits, to my tastes at least, are: There will never be enough "Are you ready for some football?" riffs! ... But yeah, there are some that grate eventually. Frank's "Eukayeeeu!" gets called out pretty quick, but the mads end a ton of S2 and S3 episodes just going "eeeeegh" at the end. I guess they can't all be the end of Daddy-O. Kevin's "Jeeeeeeeeed" in Leech Woman is the one that wears out fast for me.

All the Merlin stuff for that half was shoehorned into a heavily cut POS movie the director made in the '70s that ripped off the basic premise of a Stephen King story (evil toy monkey that kills people) and nothing else.

What the hell is Doctor Mordrid? It's got that stench of an early 90s comic book or video game license movie, because it's so loving full of lore, and all the lore is embarrassingly bad. It just feels like one of those movies where the writers thought you had to cram in all the Nouns from the source material's awful lore to make a licensed movie.

You know, I've seen The Incredibly Strange Creatures Who Stopped Living and Became Mixed-Up Zombies!! so many times, but if you asked me to describe the plot of the movie, I'm not sure I could. There's a fortune teller? And Ortega? And then 90% of the movie is spent watching bad cabaret acts or riding a roller coaster. E: "Leonard Maltin awarded the film two and a half out of a possible four stars (his most widely used rating), complimenting the film's use of colors and haunting atmosphere while criticizing the film's acting, dialogue, and simplistic plot."

And it shows! I'm just thrown by the idea of Merlin - the FAMOUS MAGICIAN - resorting to wandering the streets of suburban California asking strangers "Have you seen my little monkey" and not, I don't know, USING MAGIC. But I shouldn't be surprised that the guy repurposing his 80's child murder movie into a fun family romp doesn't have the best ideas. Shaman Tank Spec posted:"Leonard Maltin awarded the film two and a half out of a possible four stars (his most widely used rating), complimenting the film's use of colors and haunting atmosphere while criticizing the film's acting, dialogue, and simplistic plot." I can give the movie credit for the hallucinatory sequences being genuinely interesting and effectively disorienting*...but not two and a half stars credit. My Letterboxd review would be half a star and an effusive endorsement of the visuals and capturing a "real" sense of 60's LA, in that it's got no budget so they're clearly stealing location shots and filming in friends' homes. *(I love Servo's "Mike...I think I'm freaking out!" bit during the one dream sequence. The rapid breathing and panicked yelps; "Did she say 'I'm never Jack'...or am I freaking out?!")

I've always liked the extended bit during the credits of Laserblast where they look through Maltin's book and compare its rating to actual movies. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VUkMjQuwgDg&t=4350s

E: JethroMcB posted:(Dumb joke I had forgotten about that landed big me on this viewing: The 70's House Dad putting a roast chicken in the oven - "My cake didn't turn out...") A Mike joke, right? It feels like a Mike joke. And reminds me of one of my favourite dumb jokes from Horror at Party Beach. The cops pull up to the professor's house. Professor walks out with a pipe in his mouth. Mike: "Thanks for coming out to help me. My pipe's stuck in my mouth." The last time I saw the episode that somehow made me laugh so hard I cried, and got me going on all the following jokes for a good five minutes.

I don't agree that it's a 2.5-star lovely movie, but that's why his 2.5s are all over the place

There's a fortune teller? And Ortega? And then 90% of the movie is spent watching bad cabaret acts or riding a roller coaster. Thinking about it, the film seems kind of plotless because the fortune teller and her stripper sister and Ortega don't really have a reason they're hypnotizing people into zombies. They just do it. Maybe if the zombies trapped in the fortune teller's tent broke out and went on a small rampage before getting contained again? I feel like this would be a creepy little movie if there was less music hall filler and more back of house and behind the scenes stuff from the carnival. Fun fact: the actors who played Jerry and the alcoholic dancer Marge were married in real life.

I read something from Siskel or Ebert once where they went into detail of that kind of trading style. Essentially they're rating the movie on what it's trying to accomplish rather than a flat rating system for all movies. So Bikini Bimbo Massacre and Schindler's List can both be 5 star movies but it's not an apples to apples comparison.
