- In episode 911 Mike and the bots are subjected to a rather interesting experiment in filmmaking - what happens if you let a blind mongoose with attention deficit disorder cut your badly shot movie with a mallet?
Well, Devil Fish is what!
This movie is so randomly thrown together it looks not so much edited as tenderized - and I don’t have a clue what that even means.
Anyway, in Devil Fish we get to see some random nationalities pretending to be Floridians in their battle against a genetically created octo-shark.
Why would anyone make such a thing?
Well, you know, because… SCIENCE!
Oh, apparently the monster is supposed to secure the strangely named company WOI’s right to tap into the reserves of the sea. Now, how exactly this octo-thing is supposed to let them do that is anyone’s guess as the movie flat out refuses to tell us. So… SCIENCE!
All this could have been somewhat exiting if this battle between random stick people and a octo-shark didn’t primarily consist of watching them sitting around on a boat, drinking obscene amounts of beer, and having rather un-erotic sex - superimposed on top of themselves no less…
Anyway, the monster is finally defeated by pouring out gallons and gallons of gasoline into a glade and basically killing every living organism for miles around… Well, you win some you lose some.
Except for a rather schizophrenic script, which tries to juggle four different plots and several characters and failing miserably, and a soundtrack which seems to switch between the theme from Jaws played backwards and softcore porn music, there really isn’t a lot else to say about this movie, other than the credits should be a warning as to what to expect.
One of the screenwriters, Frank Walker, was also involved in the script for the dismal failure which was Operation Double 007 (MST episode 508), and one of the assistant directors, Gilbert Roussel (Bruno Mattei) directed Robowar - yes, ROBOWAR, with the ever screaming Reb Brown of Space Mutiny fame (MST episode 820).
Yes, this has quality written all over it, does it not…
Anyway, look out for a woman without flesh, Mrs. Killroy, something vague, Mr. Food the fishing guy, beer, the deploying of sea-dreidels, someone sitting on his mother’s head(?), envy of something being 40 feet long, a non-waterproof face, beer, a man unclogging his lawnmower with his feet, Euro-humour, flamethrower fishing, more beer, tiny medical centre starring tiny Chad Everett, a wired Viking, the adventurous life of a TV repair man, amoeba porn, tentacle difficulties, even more beer, a couple getting ahead of themselves, the scorning of electricians, general squirting of adrenaline, a woman displacing no water at all, human sushi, fishing for deep sea clowns, a boat powered by a face, substantial amounts of beer, action back fat, death by calamari, and gallons upon gallons of beer.
Enjoy (if you like beer).
Servo's cartoonish beer can hisscracks and gulpings at 3:31 always slay me.
What dumb people
"The cells only have a lifespan of 8 months?!"
"I'm gonna kick your ass"
Ah, another monster movie where the monster is far less loathsome than many of the human characters.
I KNOOOOWW.
Some of them are loathesome. The rest are just like American beer: watered-down.
at least there was no side-hacking going on..
That sucks
That sucks
"buy yourself something ugly"
I dont know why but i couldn't stop laughing at that
Me too,it caught me off guard.😂
I just love the evil laugh after Crow says "A few crackers for an appetizer" at 18:18.
"Well, this should take care of every living THING in the Everglades."
"Strap your flame thrower on and grab a stick of juicy fruit."
I wonder how many people got that reference?
The taste is gonna move ya!
"Maybe it was too high or too low a frequency."
SERVO: "Kenneth."
Wow what a reference. XD
Explain, please?
It's a reference to the name of a classic song by R.E.M. called "What's The Frequency, Kenneth?". The radio station I work for plays it all the time. :)
+Poxell91 That's true BUT the source of the song is an incident involving Dan Rather. Dan was walking down the street in NYC when a whacko came up to him, grabbed him and screamed "What's the frequency Kenneth?"
How many people got that ref?
That woman is one step away from being a Nintendo 64 graphic.
"6 degrees off the port beer... I mean bow."
"Deploy the Country Time pink lemonade."
Isn't this an orange juice? Oh.....darn...
i dont know why, but the recording of him drinking beer made me laugh til i cried.
You can tell the episode is good when the best of is over 19 minutes.
My god. Mst3k used to come on the sci-fi channel at midnight on saturday nights when i was a kid. Used to wake up my parents laughing.
8:55 The new Diagnosis Murder, starring Danny Masterson and Richard Nixon.
06:03 That shark legit looks concerned 😂😂😂
He’d sit on his mother’s head if he had something to gain out of it. “ Hot image Bob!”
"scene's starting, pass it on. . . scene's starting, pass it on."
"I'm not an expert...But this is pointy."
The original Sharktopus
"I can't believe I directed 'North!'"
How did they let "John Old Jr." in the credits slide? Definitely a joke there.
"I KNOW!!!!"
I didn't think Danny Masterson was that old.
"Well, that's it. Close as I'll ever come."
And deep LUCIFERED potatoes
It lasted for 3 minutes.
Like my last 12 pack.
I KNOOOOWW!
SAY GOODBYE TO BEER FOR MEEEeeeeeee
Ahh, the heavily-sexed world of appliance repair.
If you call that sex! Only got a shot of his tiny nads..
I'm pleased at things.
i love coming back find my comments with my favorite riffs xD
This is basically a Better Sharktopus!
"I feel European upon seeing that."
Two geniuses should never work together. Peter and Bob will be just fine.
You forgot the reference where they called the skinny chick Farrah Fawcett Minor. That cracked me up and stuck with me for years.
I first saw this year's ago and I have always wondered...what DID she have the nerve to say?
I've missed your 'favorite moments', auritone!
My favorite scenes from this episode are from 13:00 - 13:12, along with Crow's hysterical laughter with Servo's during the end credits.
Thanks again and Happy New Year!
I miss making them, but just haven't had time.
Happy New Year to you too. :)
+Denise Faraday I laughed really hard at "deploying sea-dredls" at about 11:00 :-)
"I knowwwww!"
"Where are we going?" "To the mountains." It's funny because all their colleagues are dead.
That's my special line! A beer is in trouble!
Awaken the beer drinker in you
“Welcome to downtown Shackville.”
Say goodbye to the beer for me!
“Still a better edited movie than Batman and Robin.”
You can't trust anything an electrician says! 👹
I KNOOOOWW!
"Sixteenth is a waterhole surrounded by water on all sides."
Trivia: The beautiful blonde character, Dr. Stella Dickens, was played by actress Valentine Monnier who has recently accused the notorious Roman Polanski of having sexually assaulted her in Switzerland back in 1975 (when she was 18). Born on October 22, 1956, Monnier will be 65 in 2021.
"If I don't come back, adopt a single currency, eat snails, and don't shave your armpits."
I'm going to kick your ass! LOL!
Tentacle difficulties
😑
at about 10:40 …really watery American beer! :-D
"I'm here for the orangutan look-a-like contest"
"Underwater fights are like the drum solos of movies"
*Gasps* "Who am I?!"
"Please! Don't let me die before I know who I am!"
"OK, now throw in the diced onions and celery and chopped porcini mushrooms!"
"Alright, men! See if he's down; try flaking him with a fork!"
Is this where the fish lives?
eromitlabhitw .... Touch of Satan
missed these.... so awesome
Tiny medical center....with tiny Chad Everett.
So I think the Viking's all wired up..
Ow my legs got bit off
Be quiet ya baby😅
@7:50 "Heh, I hung one out for fun" in maybe the only scene I can remember from any movie where a dudes testicle accidentally pops out of his shorts and they just left it in the film. 😂
One of my favorite episodes!
Does anyone else think that Peter's voice sounds like John Agar?
Where I'm from (NE Ohio), the radio is advertising an appearance by (you guessed it) Peter Frampton. Every time I hear that commercial on the radio, I exclaim "PETER FRAMPTON!" LOL!
Buff Drinklots!
@@christieperry4361 BULK VANDERGUGE!
Bob Johnson, wait!
@@christieperry4361 PUNCH ROCK-GROIN!
I suddenly want to watch space mutiny again... LOL!
Dr Hogan is also experimenting with film credits
Crow's line at 14:27 is criminally underrated.
"Welcome to the world of WOI"
Laura B World of WOIcraft is my favorite video game. 🤣
wait a sec, this film has 2 title sequences?
This version has two title screens. The original cut of the movie doesn't...
“... here..let me activate your culture”
Let me clear the table for ya.
"say goodbye to beer for meeeeee!"
7:50 whOAH!! incoming.
"John Old jr.", and no comment?
My reaction was: "Really? NOTHING on that?" 😁
Get the hardness out?
Must be a slow day at the coast guard
Better behave, I got my stripes boys
9:07 If Hyde from That 70s Show was a Doctor.
..."At least he seems stabilized"...😂
Peter Frampton!
7:50 Does that count as mooning?
Dr Davis should have confessed the making of the creation
The softcore porn sound track vol 1
SLO~W DA~Y HU~H?
"I got the Amiga working!" if your under 30 you don't get it.
Thanks. I agree
Software failure - task held.
-Sees credit for "Iris Peynado"
Huh. Her name is a Spanish insult.
Fun Fact: "Lewis Coates" is the anglicized name of Italian hack screenwriter & director Luigi Cozzi.
Janet is my all-time MST3K crush
They pour fuel into the water, then wade out into it with a flamethrower?
I know!
One of my favorites ❤
7:50 😂 “Oh, incoming.”
“Anyone who has the chance to tap the tremendous reserves of the sea will have the future, doctor.”
“In his hands.”
(“yeah thanks for helping me out there”)
Wow the editing is mad.
Peter. I have a tummy ache 😅
Florida Italiansgot enough drunks
Discount Jeremy Irons.
AKA - Biscuit Tins.
What did they mean by "bike rack"?
thanks! never heard it called that.
Kaebee yeah thats a new one on me too.
7:40 “I was framed I tell ya”
scrote shot!
Just watching this again, and I'm still puzzled by the appearance of slurry-speech young woman at 4:39. Why is she in there? Does she appear again? Is she the one who gets killed off-camera?
It makes no sense, but that's par for the course with many of these movies, I guess.
She is our radio repairmans assistant/lover and that's about it. And yes, she is killed off camera - at least im this version.
You can hear Officer Beefy saying "They killed Sandra Hayes"; One of at least THREE women murdered by Ugly-Face. Piece of work, huh?
It's the blue show, staring blue!
Hi, I'm blue my first guest is real....
Teal
(In a deep voice) Slow day huh?
OMG ! Peter !
“ Is Euro-penis Okay !?”
“The sixteenth is a water hole,,, surrounded by water on all sides “
“I KNOOOOOOW. !”
“We done been ete , Over !”
dr davis looks kinda like nathan fillion
"Hi Peter!"
"Hi... *STICK* ."
"I bet they hired every nature-hating psycho in Dade County!"
Yeah, but due to the film's budget constraints, they had to pay 'em in beer. (Not that anyone complained.)
I’ve located a Gary Wright song!
Slow day huh?
12:39 this scene omitted for content.
no really I am getting divorced!
I'll admit the Japanese movies they shown on MST3K weren't on the same level as the works of Akira Kurosawa, but they're works of art compared to this indigestible Italian succotash.
TimelordR
I was telling someone this the other day: MST3K made me realize just how ridiculous Italian filmmakers are.
Okay weeaboo.
