"Most people are morally ambiguous which explains our random dying pattern" my favorite riff in this episode

"Honey, don't." I love when Joel talks to the bots as his kids.

I feel badly for her husband. He dies within the first 5 minutes, she doesn't even cry and within a few days, she is making out with an outlaw.

Y'know, I will admit this strikes me as one of Corman's better attempts. Which might not be saying too much, but it's got multifaceted characters, some acceptable action, some cute dialogue... and... well it's not as bad as some of his others, anyway. If you're feeling generous.

I actually like corman's work (mostly). Sure, they're often not great but the man is operating on what were (and are, he's still working) budgets that are 'shoestring' at best. I'm far more forgiving-and sometimes they even become charming-when I remember that.

This movie actually has a sort of Shakespeare feel to it. Morally ambiguous characters; even our heroine Rose looks the other way when it's obvious that Erica & Kane are plotting her murder, not to mention the deaths of others. Even when Jake aka Little Man aka Wormy flat-out tells her everything she chooses not to act because of her feelings toward Kane. And much like 'Hamlet' the film ends with 95% of the characters dead. "I thought you were dead!" "The good die first." "Most of us are morally ambiguous, which explains our random dying patterns."

Definitely his most watchable, of the ones I've seen. No horrendous acting, decent costumes and sets, and a completely coherent plot. It was only his second year as a director too!

A lot of times how they introduce dr F and Frank escape me so I decided to start googling it. Peter Lynn Hayes and Mary Healy were a H&W vaudeville / acting team from the 40- 50s +. Performed almost exclusively together and were married until his death in 1998.

I feel like that sammich made another appearance, maybe in "Pod People"? I seem to remember hime asking Joel to 'Here, hold my sammitch." when he was taking a turn on the Wall of Keyboards.

Joel: Man, this movie is just sitting on my head and crushing it. ACCURATE.

"ive never known more about what isnt going on in the movie" -Mike Nelson on Corman's movie The Undead (ep. 806)

"It's so hot in here! We're so sessy! We did not mean to do that but we did it!" Love the riffing on the dancers.

You can't watch the saloon dancing scene without laughing "Naughty Spank" 😂

"He made MY head explode! Thank you, Dr. Forrester! Thank you!" "OHHH! WE GOT MOVIE SIGN!" "Thank you!" Yep, Tom Servo was really relieved to have that balloon pop.

'ever see a peace officer in a corset?' 'yeah, your husband.'

39:41 “Hey this is moving to fast for me,” when it looks like she is dropping to her knees in front of him is the best part of the episode. Mike was sexual often but it was always a treat whenever Joel did it because he was so subtle.

Crow: Joel, is there any way I can be mummified and placed next to Stalin? Joel: Sure, honey. Crow: Well, that's what I want: mummified and placed next to Stalin.

Dr Forrester: Hey boobie. Do you want to make people's heads explode? Sure we all do.

I'll lie in state for several days at the Corn Palace while "Hooked on a Feeling" is sung by a choir of castratis.

Seeing both Allison Hayes & Beverly Garland in this Roger Corman oater reminds me of an old joke from The Benny Hill Show when Benny in a sketch as a gunslinger says to a saloon gal, "I'll show you my 45's if y'all show me your 38's".

Egypt? If anybody but Joe Derosa is your nonFake first and last name, you are ridiculous. India was providing nearly 70% of Britain's cotton by 1862.
