Mystery Science Theater 3000: Catalina Caper Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)One of my favorites; this Season 2 episode is worth every penny.
The movie itself is painfully unfunny - a teen beach movie that is trying very, very hard to be a comedy, but is just embarrassing. Fortunately, we have Joel and the 'Bots to help "Catalina Caper" realize it's true comic potential - as the butt of some seriously good riffing.
The movie features a dorky teenager and his dorky friend, who is an inexplicable chick-magnet. The pair head to the beach for their summer vacation, where they are entangled in, and foil, a criminal plot (masterminded by a character whom Joel and the 'Bots refer to as "lockjaw Jim Backus") to steal a really old scroll and sell a counterfeit copy of it to a Greek collector.
But the scroll thing is really only a subplot. What was the real point of this movie? The point seems to have been to have lots of young, white Americans frolicking in their bathing suits, and several catchy musical numbers - including one sung by Little Richard himself (Joel observes that he seems to be "hopped up on goofballs").
But there's more music than just the dippy dance tunes in "Catalina Caper." In one of the most stirring performances in his illustrious musical career, Tom Servo treats us to a very touching, love-struck ode to the film's fish-loving Creepy Girl. The song is truly adorable, and for me is the highlight of this very good episode. I can't see how any creepy girl could fail to be moved by the sweet, clever song, or by Servo's sensitive rendition of it.
You want this episode. Trust me, you do.

Mystery Science Theater 3000 - Shorts Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Three of the shorts on this video are absolute gems. "Body Care and Grooming," with its preachy, condescending 50s rules that anyone with half a brain should already know, makes us roar with laughter, especially how the heroine is alternately shamed like a cheap tramp and upheld as a pure white goddess of cleanliness . . . with robotic comments such as, "Grooming is between you and the Lord God." "A Date with Your Family" (also known as "The Woody Allen Story") is hysterical, the best part being when the family displays the behaviors that are to be avoided at the dinner table (Sister asks herself, "I wonder if I should have washed my hands after handling that dead woodchuck?") The "Cheating" short is also a laugh riot, as the high school boy, who appears to live all alone in a perpetually dark house ("It might help if Johnny had some parents!"), is sucked into a Kafka-esque web of cheating that eventually draws his poor friend Mary in, too (the robots urge, "Sweet Mary, nooooooo!") The other four shorts are funny, too, and definitely better than most any comedy you'll see on t.v. I highly recommend this and any other shorts tapes that may come out in the future.
