Is the death noise Tom Servo makes for the dinosaur in Future War (around 1 hour, 21 minutes) a reference to something or just delightful improv? I feel insane trying to reproduce the sound in conversation.

Huh? It's pretty clearly Tom saying "You forgot your backpack—AAAUGH!"

Thanks. My friends and I broke a VHS tape rewinding it so many times trying to figure that out back in the day.

We had to do the same on Time Chasers proving to each other that you can see Lisa's dead body fling out of the plane as it explodes. I think we all just have poo poo eyesight and hearing or something.

Honestly, Time Chasers almost carried itself in some parts.

The hero barging into the cockpit and saying, "YOU ARE GROUNDED" and then getting punched clean off the plane immediately had me laughing so hard I missed Crow's "and it's all over, good" the first time.

Was Violent Years the one involving the Communist Party paying girls to damage American flags and shuffle papers around, followed by a deadly police shootout?

The trailers included with the DVD's of MST3K were all amazing. The random interspersed clips of the cut love scene in Werewolf leading up to the bearded militia man praying, "SAVE ME!" is always hilarious.

It was also the first clue I had that the movies had to be edited down. "Whatever they did in bed blew him out of the room and halfway across town."

The proudest moment of my young life was astounding my parents when I recognized a scene from "Screaming Skull" in the opening montage from "Ernest Scared Stupid."

Probably going to have to watch Touch of Satan for Halloween, or Werewolf, or Screaming; Skull. Or all of them.

Hmm, I have to disagree. Space Mutiny may have an interesting concept for a sci-fi story (a faction aboard a generation ship wants to abandon their original mission) but that's not the same thing as a good script.

Another movie that I still say has hidden virtues: The Screaming Skull. It has the core of a decent (if low-budget) creepy-horror flick, and there's one good plot twist in the middle. It's just too drat long for its own good. Chop out 20 or 30 minutes of "packing peanuts" and you could make an okay Twilight Zone episode out of it.

I was legitimately unnerved by the "bansaw going through a nail" sounds when the woman is alone in the creepy house the first time I saw it as a child. Then I saw the opening of Ernest Scared Stupid and recognized the shot of the villain throwing a stool at the ghost and I decided it was a great and influential film.

I completely forgot about that scene in Rocket Attack USA where the Soviets storm the Capitol building and kill the congressman character. I love those riffs, but drat if it's going to hit me in a weird place from now on.

Yeah, it ends with him being alive, but left alone as a Golden Gumby in a dark cave.

I have to admit, I liked that Krankor went from "He obviously died in that asteroid field" to "maybe he didn't." Then he delegates an elite squad of chicken men to ferret him out, which they successfully do!

I had parts of a random MST3K song stuck in my head for a like a week and finally managed to place it with the 1998 Summer Blockbuster Review. Hell of a cinematic year with Goshzilla, Halloween Water, Armageddon, Small Soldiers, X-Files, Saving Private Ryan etc.
