My mom, God bless her, always wondered if his parents were big Sea Hunt fans but I feel like he answered that somewhere.

I remember trying to come up with a question, but quoting the show is really the best I can do.

I do sorta wonder if he's still living in that sweet studio apartment (right on the bus line too) and if he has any of that rice left.

Or toilet paper... people here keep buying it all up...

Why would an ambulance be leaving the hospital?

The only real question I can think of is, I'm curious about how much attention was paid to which character says which line. Did they try to match jokes up to cadence, or character? Is there a 'Crow' sort of joke and a 'Tom' sort of joke? Does it depend on delivery, or on who hasn't had a joke for a minute, or something else? I'd like to know more about how that was done.

Like, actual questions for Mike:

1) How are the headaches, and did you find anything that successfully treated them?

I've said this before but considering how many "heroes" of MST3K movies are downright loathsome and annoying, Ben Murphy's mellow dumbness is refreshing.

Totally. I just watched Laserblast yesterday. Kim Milford is annoying as hell in that, so seeing Ben Murphy after that is a refreshing change.

Being even vaguely altruistic and not insulting to all around him can take you far in the annals of the movies the crew has done over the decades.

Not only that, but he actually does stuff. So many "protagonists" in MST3k movies sort of just sit around and let poo poo happen (I'm looking at you, Agent for H.A.R.M.), so Ben Murphy as Sam giving it the old college try is actually noteworthy. :v:

Ah, having encountered Zombie Nightmare I might recommend the OTHER Jon Miki-Thor classic 'Rock 'N Roll Nightmare' on RiffTrax if you haven't seen it. It's an oddly Christian softcore demon movie... thing...

This movie was shot in the neighborhood where my parents grew up. My uncle worked at the ice cream stand, and he was totally a 70s/80s muscle car guy. Kills me everytime.

Zombie Nightmare is part of the extraordinarily small club of MST3k movies that I can stand to watch without riffs. It's just goofy enough to be entertaining.

Yeah, it seems like it SHOULD be building to the death of the meanest creep in the gang, but he dies before Tia Carerre and her boyfriend in the cut scene at the milkshake place.

Did you ever wonder where the Romans got bread from? It wasn't from Waitrose!
I hadn't clocked them before, but the versions up on Youtube that are the cinema editions are great -- it's neat seeing the extra bits of the films that were snipped off, but also simply how gorgeous some of the films are (after watching fuzzy versions or washed out versions for years).

So far we've done The Incredible Melting Man and Hobgoblins -- the latter makes a hell of a lot more sense with some of the edited scenes put back in. Never realised just what a beautiful shade of prune Kevin's muscle car really is.

He's also done Riding with Death, except he's uploaded it as its original two Gemini Man episodes; Mr Boods had an epiphany now that after gently caress knows how many years, he understands that Riding with Death isn't a movie that suddenly loses all of its characters and plot direction and veers off into something else after an hour. (Making 'movies' out of slammed together episodes of a failed TV series isn't a thing here in the UK).
