Fun fact from a WMWM sub:
My uncle was a grip/boom mic operator/gopher on this flick and when he thought I was 'mature' enough, he shared with me the fact that all the workers on set were gonzo on The Reefer! Every time they watched dailies they howled in laughter but the checks cleared so on they went. He loved it when I shared that I'd seen the flick at a drive in and I too was using The Demon Weed and our VW was rockin' with laughs. What a world eh? WOOF!
Ah, it all makes sense now--everyone was stoned!
I want your autograph!🎉
From what I heard from the director Ray Dennis Steckler, the movie didn't even have a script.
@@BlasterBand That, too, makes sense.
Yup, just a basic outline.
People tend to throw around the 'Worst movie ever' moniker, but this movie is up there. The only problem is, it's actually far-out and really creative.
So if someone out there is a fan of bad movies, then this one is a must see!
Cheers from Canada
All I can think about is how happy Mark must have been when he realized that he could insert himself in the movie just by filming in a pitch black room without needing to perform his timeconsuming greenscreen magic.
😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆
And it's still very effective!
Believe it or not, shooting this skit was actually kind of a pain in the ass since I don't have any barn doors on any of the lights in my studio, so I had to make one out of a cardboard box and black construction paper in order to focus the light and even then I still didn't get the exact result I was looking for. I would have actually preferred doing a typical green screen skit!
@@FanboyFlicks KAT! You are doing your thing! SALUTE TO YOU FROM A FELLOW CREATOR!✊🏾
@@FanboyFlicks qq💋🤌💥
The fact that it got released under many different titles, makes me wonder how many people accidentally saw this more than once.
Pure evil
That's why they use hypnosis. So people forget they've seen the movie, and keep going, for ever, and ever, and ever...
@@luivraos lol
Imagine if you bought a ticket all 4 times
@@FanboyFlicks I don't think anyone wants to imagine that.
Very few people are going to be that sadistic.
Jerry stabbing in that hoodie legitimately looks like a 2000's indie comedy movie
Scary Movie?
@@eidgenossenarkebuse Not that bad
Ah, the 60's. When teenagers looked like people in their 30's.
So...like pretty much any decade in Hollywood? The cast of 90210 bring all likr between 35-30 year olds supposedly Iall in highschool comes to mind lol
Well the possiblity of being sent to fight in vietnam will age a kid quickly lol
Steve McQueen in the Blob comes to mind immediately!!!🙏👌👻❣️
In their defence, I've seen pictures of 80s highschoolers and they looked like they were paying alimony, child support and a student debt at the same time
@@TupocalypseShakur because they were!!!🙏👌🤣
“Bad Zombie Management” is actually a better title than any of the films actual titles.
Mark is a great companion to MST3K and RiffTrax. He’s very funny and even points out things they missed.
One of my favorite TH-cam channels.
'And now it's time for Choo choo chaboogie' I can honestly say, with both hands on my heart, that I never ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever thought I'd hear that sentence coming out of Marks mouth.....What can I say, Mark always manages to surprise me 😂
I'm constantly surprised about this things this show makes me say too
4:43 That sound, dear Mark, is the sound of the actors souls crying out in pain at having to be in this movie. Maybe a bit of anger as well.
Haha
I am so thrilled to see this one! I have always loved TISCWSLABMUZ since I
first heard about it in "The Golden Turkey Awards" as a teen.
One of my fondest memories was going to Ray Dennis Steckler's video store in Vegas one afternoon and talking about
his movies with him for hours. He was thrilled someone was still interested in his work. Before I left I bought a copy of each of his videos (autographed, of
course) and he gave me the last copy of the poster to TISCWSLABMUZ he had,
which was slightly torn and hanging in the front window of his store (it is now
restored and framed in my study). It's autographed to me and is a real treasure.
He also gave me a latex (rubber?) mask that they used during screenings of the film when they'd have people run up and down the aisles of the theater during the zombie escape scene near the end of the film.
Ray was an unusual talent, and I'm grateful I got to meet him. He passed away a couple of years ago, and the cinematic universe is dimmer without him.
Mark you are one of the best content creators. I’m laid up with a serious back injury and this is making it easier.
Take care. Be careful not to laugh too hard with that back injury(personal experience)🙃
I'm sorry man. :(
That sucks man. I hope you get better, my dude. What happened if you don’t mind me asking?
I disagree
@@chasesutley7277 u disagree with what
I've watched this movie more than 10 times. Of course, the version with the MST3K riffing
he owes ALOT to MST3k
The thing I remembered the most from this one was the cops just randomly "so I started blastin" near the end.
And Joan Collins is checked into the boards…..
“Ortega taco shells are made from people.”
"We hope you've enjoyed 'No Moral Theater' !"
If Nicholas Cage and Pete Townsend had a cousin... it would be Jerry.
Lmao so true 👍 🤣 😂
Nice observation!
I was legit wondering if he was Nic Cage's dad
Now the beatnik lifestyle, that's the one for me. No job, no ambition, hanging out all the time while you buy lottery tickets professionally with grandma's SS.
Truly living like a king!
Hey Mark! I saw a movie called 'Warriors of Virtue' in theaters when I was a kid in '97. It's about ninja kangaroos in the forest or some shit... It's always stuck in my head and may be worth a watch! Love your videos brother
That movie is real!?!?! I have a vague memory of seeing that movie as a kid but couldn't never actually remember if it was real or not. Thank you.
Yeah that's a good idea. Also do the 2002 sequel.
@@DeviantDork SEQUEL!!!!
THAT SHIT HAD A SEQUEL!!??
Trivia about that movie: It was made by brothers who were also all medical doctors.
I’d watch that review.
This movie actually won an Oscar for best use of Silly Putty as facial prosthetics.
Imagine going to the movie four times thinking you're watching a new movie, and each time it's this same movie.
Two things. One, I always thought the guy with the cigarette and messed up face reminded me of Torgo. And two, I'm kind've surprised Mark didn't say anything about the monkey telling people to 'GET YOUR TICKETS HERE! GET YOUR TICKETS HERE!'
And Ortega is almost an anagram of Torgo. Curious ...
That monkey creeped me out so much
@@themoviedealers I'll take it. Crazy thing is I had no idea the MSTies did this flick until years later when I realized Ortega was a regular in their skits
@@FanboyFlicks You're doing God's work my friend
I was waiting for you to insert yourself into one of the empty theater seats during the strip show😂. Loved it none the less. Thanks for the laughs and please keep it up.
hahaha too bad I didn't think of that, that could have been good
Harold & Jerry look like Sean Penn and Nick Cage were cloned in a very unfinished alpha version cloning process.
Ah, yes... A MST3K classic!
ALSO! Dear lord, this is my first time seeing the stabbing scene in full, and the faces he makes are SO derpy! Hell, he kinda looks like Cornholio with his hoodie up!
Yes, why the heck did MST3K cut those faces? Too graphic? lol
OMG I can't believe they (Mike and the bots) didn't do an "I AM CORNHOLIO" during that scene now!
I used those clips so much because they just look so hilarious
Give me all the T.P.'s
Always good to see another MST3K classic on Mark's show. Ortega and "Madison" shall live forever in my heart.
"He has a 'cab forward' face."
I loved Ortega! And it was awesome that they had him as a reoccurring character on the show😂
The joke about the astrology magazine is one of the best deliberately bad jokes they ever did.
MADISON!!!
Servo freaking out during the dream sequence is an all-timer: "Did she just say 'My name is never Jack,' or am I freaking out?!"
Fun fact: in tarot, the death card doesn't mean death. It means something's ending, usually to be replaced by something else. Every movie uses the death card wrong.
Source: my sister did tarot when we were teenagers until the novelty wore off.
Doesn’t it mean change is coming as well?
@@SanaLovesMahado1 yeah... Of course as usual with Tarot interpretations differ. But "change" is definitely a major interpretation of the card.
I think the actual "dire fate" is Ten of Swords, or possibly Tower. Those are the only cards that really describe what happens to Jerry (within the vagueness of Tarot predictions). Of course Estrella was most likely not actually psychic and had just picked Jerry as the brainwashing target because of how stupid he was and would have found some logic to do so no matter which card she pulled.
@@999apeman Yes and The Devil typical is only ever bad lol but some readers are the type that say no cards are bad so 🤷🏾♀️
As a tarot reader, this is true
This should be made into a Broadway musical!
An outstanding motion picture - Estralla was Elizabeth Taylor who was on the skids at the time...
Hey Mark, I just wanna say that you have probably my favorite channel on TH-cam. I'm always so excited when I see a new video pop up. And I've probably watched every one of your videos 2 or 3 times. You seriously crack me up!
Same here!✊🏾
For those connoisseurs of bad movies out there, maybe you could help.
I’ve been looking for a movie I saw on tv in the mid 80’s. Horror flick. Probably mid to late 70’s. My memory isn’t 100% after almost 40 years, but …The setting of the only scene I remember is either industrial or a backstage area. Think catwalk, pulleys, etc. I blue/grey/silver(?) humanoid creature is waiting behind a wall or object as the guy (cop?) enters from the background to the foreground. The creature snags the guy from behind as he passes, pulls his head back, and bites his cheek right off. Spits it on the ground.
This freaked me out tremendously as a kid, but I can’t find the movie anywhere. It was on regular tv afternoon movies in the mid 80’s, so it had to be old at the time.
And yes, I HAVE already tried Tip Of My Tongue on Reddit, r/horror, various boards on Bloody Disgusting, etc. If anyone knows (or even has a vague idea) please let me know! I’ve watched countless random bad movies for years trying to find it.
Jerry looks like if you tried to draw Pete Townshend from memory
One of your posts popping up in my feed makes me smile even if I’m ass deep in fighting off depression and suicidal feels. You rock! My hedgehog (Quillemina) agrees, and hedgies are notoriously hard to impress so you can put that in your resume with pride! 👍🏻🦔
🫂
Does Quillemina like Chilli Dogs?
I hope you’re feeling much better. Quillemina needs her daddy too. 🦔 ❤
Stay with us.
You missed out an amazing detail about this movie, it's very own 3D effect. Originally when this film was shown cinema employees at a certain point would adorn masks and pretend to attack the audience. I remember reading this years ago I think in the Worst Movies of All Times book.
The most horrific aspects of this flick are Jerry`s doomed hairline and Harold`s ridiculous wig.
Its sad that I knew what movie just from the thumbnail. I have seen the MST3K version at least ten times, one of their best. Such great lines as
"Shots ring out, but the people of Bosnia bravely go on with their peep shows."
"I drink but I don't inhale"
"Ross Perot's commedia dell'arte"
"No one's ever attempted an interpretive dance of Mein Kampf before"
They made that fortune teller look like a cooked turkey.
"Water? Oh no!"
Cut to Harold in the bathroom on the toilet, the door violently bursts open. It's Jerry. He tackles Harold off the toilet and says, "What are you doing?! There's _water_ in that toilet! Get away from it!"
The scene where Jerry walks up that steep hill next to the funicular railway and hears the radio report was filmed in the Bunker Hill district of LA. The funicular is called the Angels Flight Railway. It has a website that bills it as an LA landmark since 1901. It has appeared in dozens of films and TV shows, including the Lon Chaney JR film "Indestructible Man."
I respect anyone who can make me laugh and keep me entertained! Thank you, from one creator to another! SALUTE✊🏾
I wholeheartedly agree with your comments!!!🙏👍👻❣️
@@mauricedavis2160 Appreciate that👍🏾🫡
I remember seeing clips of this flick in the great It Came from Hollywood movie… an entire movie that makes fun of really bad movies. It’s a glorious thing.
I love that movie! So glad someone else knows about it.
Yes! Best movie ever. I just love to sit down with a good brain
@@evil1by1 I just found the entire movie on TH-cam!
Man I felt guilty watching this movie review. Because I have a mole very similar in almost the exact same spot and have been putting it off getting it removed. Thanks Mark. After thanksgiving weekend, I will call my doctor to get it removed.
Interesting that two of the characters are Estrella and Stella. Stella means "star" in Latin, and "Estrella" means "star" in Spanish. (Although the Spanish double L is pronounced like the English Y, so it should be pronounced "Es-TRAY-ya".)
Stella means star in Italian
@@FC-hj9ub Italian... Latin... practically the same thing. :)
@@evilbob840 Italian is based off Latin. That's like saying you and one of your parents are the same thing.
@@deathsyth8888 You haven't seen my dad...
That mole looks like a meatball that fell on the ground and got hair stuck on it.
What astounds me:
Its title, "The Incredibly Strange Creatures Who Stopped Living and Became Mixed-Up Zombies," is NOT a bad translation - perhaps from Italian or some other language in which it comes across as far more compelling - and it is not a mega-cheap Grade F foreign film. This was, in fact, an American Grade Z (for Zombigrade) horror picture, shot in LA by one Ray Steckler on a budget of about five pins and a hubcap, and it was indeed originally released under that title.
Anyone else thought the hooded Jerry stabbing Marge at the beginning of the video was just Mark edited in the scene? 😂
The algorithm has been feeding me your videos this last week. You've earned yourself a sub today!
Happy Thanksgiving Mark great seeing your new video
Jerry was ahead of his time. He was a social media influencer
I have to admit the inclusion of Elizabeth Taylor's understudy in a major role was quite surprising!!!🙏👍👻❣️
If you watch "Glen or Glenda" by Ed Wood Jr. Marilyn Monroe appears during the dream sequence!!!
@@johnzeszut3170 Dare I say Ms Monroe was in millions of dream sequences to this day!!!🙏🤔💃❣️
😄
so i'm not the only one who thought the two women look(ed) similar.
Well the fortune teller has a thing for Otis the drunk from Andy Griffith.
I watch several similar channels but from the general presentation to the comprehensive chapters you set, this show is just amazing. I love these other channels that ultimately drew me here but this channel is stands on an entirely different level.
Much appreciated!
No one could ever simultaneously look like both Eminem and Nic Cage.
Cash Flagg: "Hold my bong."
"Strange Creatures" featured an award winning musical score and - not too many people know about this - the fortune teller lady was Elizabeth Taylor! Yes, that is right.
This is my first time watching one of your videos and I have to tell you, you are hilarious!!
I loved MST3K and your content is very reminiscent! I look forward to going back in your channel to watch other videos! Thanks for the laughs! 😂
I’d ask if I marry Mark in the future… wait, how much is this costing me?!
That murder scene with no blood is why Evil Dead was so amazing.
For a moment I thought that was Elizabeth Taylor in the thumbnail.
Love your videos😄

this show just keeps getting better. I'm laughing my ass off over here.
"A pioneer of... lethargy"
I feel personally attacked 😆
"Killing business" indeed. I actually find the story of the fortune teller kind of believable. Being a carnie fortune teller was her identity and doing what she did allowed her to feel powerful (as this was easier for her than actually pursuing a successful life). As a woman who was deeply pathological, she saw no need to deal with the consequences of her actions; they were mere inconveniences. Instead, she would rather have people she doesn't like murdered.
Another good one :) Well done!

I thought it was Elizabeth Taylor when I saw the thumbnail! What??
Excellent video as always Mark! Happy Thanksgiving…even though you’re Canadian!
🤩🤩😳
5:14 Mark- “Oh my god I need to visit a Fortune teller...”
Me-“No, she needs to get her nails done.”
You are right about the fortune teller's mole. I worked with a sergeant in the air force that had a growth on his nose that looked just like it. Turned out to be a staph infection and they had to overload him with anti-biotics to get rid of it...looked disgusting.
I would ask the fortune teller what happened to Ortega.
I'm so glad you addressed the mole. It was stressing me out.
This film has some of the last footage of LA's Bunker Hill and Angel Flight Funicular Railroad as previously seen in so many old Film Noir Films, before it waa all leveled. Very sad.
“Welcome back TOOOOO…” has become one of my favorite moments on this platform
Thanks to this video, I looked up magic eye posters over Google, and spent hours looking at them on the computer screen.
The glare of the screen made my eyes burn after a little bit, but it was worth it, I missed looking at pictures of static to see a three dimensional image of the Star Trek Enterprise with dull washed out edges.
I'm going to be real, I had way more fun than I should doing that at my age, but also may have damaged my old person eyes in the process... So worth it for a cool pair of reading glasses in my near future.
First time subscriber. You rule. Oh yeah, that guy looks like Nick Cage.
The old Angels Flight in L.A., the tracks took you up to an old section of Los Angeles . My dad used take me on it…. no Zombies though
At 1:54, I think it's acid, not poison being poured on his face. That's what caused the disfigurement to the faces of all her 'zombies' that she keeps locked in a cage. Most evil gypsy fortune tellers keep bottles of acid on hand.
Put videos out more often. Love these
Mark is still the man! Also in that dancer's dressing room there's a poster for 'Wild Guitar'??? I feel like I must be the only one who has seen that movie but I'm too lazy to look up the connection. Well hey there's the connection at the end, thank you!
Amazing job with the hypno scene! Laughed out loud!
Just found your channel with this video and I LOVE IT! I gave you a Like and a Subscribe and I'm looking forward to more!
One of my favorite MST3K episodes
Me too! Schick Out of Shape always gets me 😂
I'd consider stopping for a psychic whose sign said "no appointments needed, I already know when you'll be here".
It's about time you reviewed this bad classic!!!🙏👍👻❣️
“You know how some movies inspire you to make your own film? This one inspires me to make my own gravy.”
I like the locations used in this Steckler film….one was the Pike in Long Beach (which was closed down by the early 1970’s) and the other was Angels Flight in downtown Los Angeles (the shortest line in America…it just goes up and down a hill). When I first saw this movie I really liked it as corny as it was).
I love the title of this movie so much. It's mixed up poetry.
I saw this movie when it premiered at a local drive-in movie theater. A six-pack helped. MST3K knocked this flick out of the park. Thanks Mark
You're seriously underrated!! 1million subs!
This movie’s titles just became my next cocktail menu
Yeah, I was just going to say: “Isn’t this movie Dr Strangelove?” It’s so easy to confuse the two.
I’m one of those people who needs alcohol to dance too. The struggle is real! 😁🍹💃 (Also this movie is intolerable without your awesome commentary. Thanks! 👍🏻)
Jerry is a mod on the r/antiwork subreddit.
Can't explain how glad I am to see this today. Thanks for posting.
Internet trivia says this was mostly shot at an old Mason temple, owned by Rock Hudson.
Like II have said before Mark is my medicine for life !!! I have been waiting for this video for what seems like a year I love them so much ! Best movie reviews on youtube for sure , way to go MARK keep up the great work.
Always happy to see a new upload ..watching at dialysis treatment.
I haven't finished the video... But you must do Rat Fink A Boo Boo from Ray Dennis Stackler (Jerry). His Magnus Opus.
My favorite superhero movie!
I believe the correct term that you are looking for is "Magnum Opus" haha jk i know its probably autospell
@@dagfinissocool Actually I was wasted... XD
Nic Cage will be perfect in the remake.
I’m glad they changed the film’s original title. Otherwise, people would totally confuse this movie with Kubrick’s Dr. Strangelove.
Lmfa😂 I absolutely LOVE your videos!
Thanks for another great video! 👍
"...deeks out his mom..." You're totally an 80's Canadian kid, Mark
"He's surrounded by people with a ton of hair . . ."
When I first saw this movie I was alone late at night during a storm back in 1995 and it was SOOOO weird it scared the shit out of me , Mark was kind and left all the creepy parts out but it scared me bigtime …freaky fucken shit!
3:09 FanboyFlicks Jerry reminds me of a malnourished Nicolas Cage and Fortune Teller looked a Wal-mart version of Elizabeth Taylor
3:32 Plus, he has "a very cab-forward face."
11:12 Plus, he's using the Michael Myers "technique" even before Michael Myers! Movie people do this all the time. They use an "ice pick" (reverse) grip with a single-edged knife, but they hold it with the sharp edge facing toward them instead of away from them. Skallagrim talks about why that doesn't work. It's one of the ways you can tell the difference between a disciplined fighter and a thug who brandishes an edged weapon as an intimidation tactic.
12:44 Why do movie people wear fall clothing in the summertime?
What sandwich is in my future? Turkey? Meatball? Tuna? Nevermind. I decided to order a pizza.
