Night of the Blood Beast

A pretty damn good episode- though not enough to be added to my favorite list. Solid riffs, watchable movie plotline. Here are some highlights, imho:

“I couldn’t bring the Jaws of Life, so I brought Cindy”

“This is back when NASA was family owned and operated”

“Steve?” “Not everyone is Steve!”

“Steve 1, you go that way, Steve 2, you come with me”

“This has Steve written all over it”
“Wait, let me go get the costumes. You guys be the Yankees and we’ll be the Nazis”
“That guy, right there, that one time zygote that manifested itself into the something I call my son…Oh Art, what happened?”
“Julie, he alone stood at the threshold of our future”..“And he peed it down his leg”
“Wow, he’s loaded with shrimp!”…”You know, I think I get hush puppies & cole slaw with these”
“So, Julie, guess he wasn’t getting enough at home, huh?”
“Boy, imagine how much lower we’d be if we were down there”
“Oh baby, I was misnamed, I am really the Looove-Beast”
“Hey! It’s one of those guns that goes BANG!”
“Hard to trust a guy not named Steve”

A good episode for the newer MST3K fan- before you tackle bigger fish like Manos or some of the more obscure episodes. Some episodes need to be eased into in order to fully enjoy. Here are a few good starter episodes to help convert a few friends:

Prince of Space
Space Mutiny
Hercules Against the Moon Men (<3)
Eegah!

I am sure there are more, but these immediately come to mind. I should sit down and make a more comprehensive list, but that is for another time...

Quotes

Ah- forgot my favorite quotes...meh, too lazy for now- but I will add this video (very familiar to fans of the show). Enjoy!

I (and this is going against a lot of public opinion) did not think that Manos was a good episode- it is more of a badge of honor to say that you saw it. Don't get me wrong, the riffing was good, but I don't considered it the "best episode ever". Just my thing. My all-time favorite has to be Hercules against the Moon Men, what with "DEEP HURTING" and Alan Steel. It also has my favorite cast together (Joel, Dr. F, Frank + the bots) although I am a fan of ALL of the cast members I have seen/heard on the show, and Mike, Pearl, Brain Guy, and Bobo all had some FANTASTIC episodes.

On my "in-the-near-future" to-do list: Night of the Blood Beast and watching some of the KTMA episodes/early episodes. Ultimately, I would like to see all that I can. But that is not going to happen soon unless I drop out of school completely (tempting, very tempting)
