Monster A Go-Go

Forget Manos - *this* is the worst movie MST3K has ever done. Utterly incomprehensible, muddled, and pointless. The cinematic equivalent of a fart in the wind.

The mutated mixture of a no-budget, unfinished, Bill Rebane "atomic/space-age" sci-fi/horror Z-movie, combined with some Herschell Gordon Lewis double-feature filler nonsense, makes for an insanely tedious slog. Even with the MST3K version, it's a struggle to sit through this mindless bore masquerading as a movie. Plus the 'twist' ending makes for a terribly hilarious cop out by Herschell Gordon Lewis, and a middle finger to anyone who actually managed to endure sitting through the rubbish.

A foam peanut of a movie.

Literally the most boring filmed thing I've ever seen. I hesitate to call this the world's most uninvolving non sequitur because non sequiturs require a minimum of one concrete idea to be narratively ignored. A masterpiece of tedium.

I heard somewhere that this film was actually two unrelated unfinished movies cobbled together. It certainly shows. Possibly the worst film I have ever seen. I can't believe I finished it.

Maybe the real monster is the friends we made along the way. Fav scene: early 60s dancing the twist.

Nothing happens in this movie. I'm not exaggerating or anything - nothing happens the entire time. The "resolution" is so inane I just can't even believe that someone tried to present that as an ending to a story.

Nothing of value is to be found here.

As inept and inane as it is, I was unable to hate it. Some of the dialogue is so hilariously absurd that I had to go back and make sure I heard it correctly, but it was far from the worst movie experience I've had.

Impressively bad.

NO! NO! NO!

They forgot a monster, and characters, and a plot. It feels like a table read of a NASA report by accountants.

Only episode of MST3k I can't finish

Nearly unwatchable, even with the MST3K commentary. This film was literally putting me to sleep.

Basically nothing but people talking in a room over and over again. Extremely annoying/goofy musical score (not exactly a surprise, considering the producer). Really really dumb ending (sort of like The Monkey's Paw, only pointless and painfully stupid, and about as satisfying as saying "it was all a dream").

Flounders throughout, and then simply disappears. Fascinating but agonizing to try to pay attention to.

Another one of those ya-gotta-see-it-to-believe-it! numbers started by Rebane and made "releasable" by Herschell Gordon Lewis under a pseudonym. This flatfooted foolishness has all the charm of a 70-minute rectal examination.

The only entertaining thing about this movie is the tag-line: The picture that comes complete with a 10-foot-tall monster to give you the wim-wams!

Mst3k score: 7/10
