"I'm pretty sure the world can handle this invasion."
"It's always really weird when the monster has to use a hand rail."
"Oh, all they got is Clamatoâ„¢, brown mustard, and martini olives!"
[Groucho]"Can't you see what I'm trying to tell you I love you!"[/Groucho]
"The largest Clarius, so far collected in Florida, is eighteen inches."
"All stuff not to say on your first date."
The director who proves there's really no need to ever end a shot!
Suddenly her Volkswagen crashes through the wall, her dog at the wheel.
You really gotta wonder about nature sometimes. Do you guys even like nature?
"Rampart, Rampart!"...George, are you playing 'Emergency' in the bathroom again?!
Oh please don't hit that, it's very delicate...Oh, let me tie her off, I'll come over there and help you, hold on...
Last time you said it looked like a butterball turkey, could you make up your mind?
Soundtrack by the Alan Parsons Project...You know, I hear they lost their funding!
You know what he needs, Do you know? Catfish Hunter!!, ha ha ha!!
Yeah, but the guy changed his name to to 'Catfish Chapstick', so it doesn't work.
One little setback and he falls apart! I mean Mike, even you've had victims die prematurely but you never behaved petulantly!
Well this monkfish is off the roster, he won't be able to pitch for a month!
Makem' stop, Rob! (reference from a classic 'Dick Van Dyke Show' episode).
No matter how much the movie insists that there's tension, I must respectfully disagree with it.
"Forward progress is made with a snakelike slither, and a vigorous thrashing of the tail" - Like Courtney Love.
Joe Don Baker and Basquiat just hangin' out together...
Hey! Don't just leave your crackers on the beach!!





Poor, poor Trumpy...the years have not been kind to you, old friend.
I can see why the chick with the VW Bug chose to camp there. It's such an inspiring spot, and the water's nice and clear. Great place to wash your clothes.
I really hate that "Edward Boy" dies in this movie. He's the only likable character.
00:37:17 - Aaand... the "murdered" guy is VISIBLY breathing after the murder! Way to go, Movie!!
[sigh]
This movie makes me nauseous in a way that no movies on mst3k ever have

Here's a question for everyone: vis a vis that knob that protrudes from Crow's beak in the first scene, do you see that as a bulging cheek full of tobacco, or a horrible tobacco-based tumor? Or something else?

Man, this is one of the episodes I have to force myself to get through. All the close-ups of underwater life... Even the brief shot of a turtle somehow grosses me out, and I've had a pet turtle. Is it the people of Florida that's made the water so icky, or is it the water that's made the people of Florida so repellant? Damn swamp-hillbillies and their ZaAt!

on the surface it looks like an animal, like a cat, or an ape

...the takes they make between the cooler of Pearl's love stuff disappearing, or appearing are impressively seamless...more-so than any other series I have ever seen employing the same cinematic effect...I wonder how they managed that...always loved everybody involved with this show, but that's pretty hard to do, and they did it several times...

Dr. Z would recover from his injuries only to be killed in a cantina gun fight on the planet Tatooine.
"Like a cat, or an ape."
"Y'know, isn't it just possible, you guys, what you want to see is nude WOMEN?"
"Ohhhhhh....maybe, yeah! *ahem* Um... hey Pearl!"
Looks like the 'Bots have a thing for BBWs. :-P
Watching this for the guzillionth time. I love this episode, so funny! The riffing is tremendously well-written and delivered perfectly.
So many good riffs and such a goofy movie that I can watch this often and still laugh every time.

I'm watching Dr. Z right now and heard the line "Oh man he should go to an underwear fitting clinic" and I decided to google 'underwear fitting clinic' and this page/site was the first result. So I am posting this here.
I like to surf with MST3K on in the background constantly.

Did the guy say "tittie fish" around 43:49?
Pearl's Love Stuff bucket opening skit was brilliant. I love it when Crow loses it when Brain Guy makes the bucket disappear - "No love! Love is gone! So lost... feeling panicky... no sense of self...developing stress disorder and an inability to work with others..."
I figured for years that if I watched every MST3K I'd eventually find a Phil Ochs reference, because damn that would just be perfectly obscure. And in the first 10 minutes of this episode, there it is.

Am I the only one that actually likes the song over the opening credits?

Damn it! Another fish movie?! Out of all the fish movies, I think this might be the fishiest. Thank god for Crow's awesome Dr. Z skit. SADDLE SOAP! Cleaning compound of DECEIT! I've watched that part like three times already.

why dose the "monster" look like a seahorse wearing a tutu

I have seen this one many many times, and the tobacco juice skit still makes me nauseous every time.

I love how Brain Guy and Bobo were so willing to strip down and act out a scene nude with -no -arguments. It's like they were expecting the bots to ask this one day.
Aww, it didn't say "Fin." at the end.
Most thrilling chase scene since the one in "The final Sacrifice."
Worst. Score. Ever.

Crow was killing it in this episode.
Barely 10 minutes in and I've got a terrible hankerin' for sushi.

That monster looks like it's straight out of an old school Doctor Who episode
Just noticed that this is my upload! Wow, 15,000 people have subjected themselves to this. Love it.

The original movie is out on Blue-Ray now, under its alternate title of ZAAT.
I like how, at about 1:14:14, the movie felt it necessary to illustrate a three-point turn for us.

Great hair, at the walk-in toilet. Who knew grease and dead skin cells could be used to sculpt such a thing?
