Just finished #814: Riding With Death
Interesting moments from this episode:
Mike cooking as a teppanyaki chef for the Bots; Pearl, Observer, and Bobo are under attack on the Camping Planet; Servo’s song “The Funky Seventies”; Servo builds himself a temporary body as a trucker; Crow becomes superhero Turkey Volume Guessing Man; Pearl has a sort of ceremony (in the Widowmaker), and receives many medals for her bravery during the war.
One riffing project down for today — Cinematic Titanic: Doomsday Machine — and, now onto a classic MST3k episode.
well, i just finished Show 907: “Hobgoblins”. people who put down low budget films — like the ones made by Full Moon, or Greg Araki, or Troma — should see this one… it’s terrifying (and not in the way Writer/Producer/Director Rick Sloane had intended it to be!). very unrealistic [and not scary] alien creature/monster puppets, actors who must’ve been hired off the street the day they began filming… oh, and i think that flamoyant kid from the High School Musical films was in this, as the guy in the red suit with the sequined bowtie and lapels…
and i loved the bit with the cardboard Mike & the Bots, as well as the cardboard Rick Sloane. and the final note in the film’s end credits.
earlier this evening, i made it through another MST3k that Im probly one of the last fans to see — #822: Overdrawn At the Memory Bank. this episode also includes the PPTV skits, along with one of my favourite songs, When Loving Lovers Love, performed by Pearl and Observer/Brain Guy
what a ridiculous movie! i hope that no PBS stations aired this film during their own pledge drives, or they’d surely go broke!

RiffTrax Shorts presents: Tooth Truth - with Harv and Marv (Second Edition)
A film that tries to make dental hygiene cool. Starring 2 annoying little cartoon characters (named in the title), a weird ’80s-style tooth faerie, and a creepy pedophile-looking dentist.
Last night, i made it through Experiment #318: Star Force (Fugitive Alien II). i put it off, because i knew it’d suck. the riffing was great, but the film was torture. had to love Crow’s repeated “Again??” - kept me laughing. is this episode the most use of “Hi-keeba!”? Altho the film was difficult, next time, Im gonna watch both films back-to-back, as a double-feature.
