"You know something Dick. I haven't had a hamburger in the front seat of an automobile with a guy in a lot of years." You're a cheap jerk!
Hey look it's the three horsem-- no the four horsemen-- no the SEVERAL horsemen of the apocalypse.
"Who in their right mind would believe a man had returned from the dead?" Only millions of Christians.
Up on Cripple Creek, it sends me. If I spring a leak ... Whoa ! Foot don't fail me now !
"I got a different idea: I'm gonna kill you, Sweeny and Joe, then I'll take care of Eva myself." -hmm, neat.
-Think of the doughnuts I can buy with this!
-You want to hit him, or should I?
-Clang, clang, clang went the trolley...
-Plod, plod, plod went the plot!
This has all the suspense of a Brian DePalma version of a Hitchcock movie!
Lemme get this straight... so every table has a bottle of Old Smuggler on it?
"Who in their right mind would believe a man came back from the dead?" "Uh, millions of Christians."
Hey, it's the Undersea Kingdom, for you and for me, where the men are in dresses...

Anyone know why every time someone in the movie says the word "switch," Crow says Jimmy Smits?
Interesting.
This episode has only 33 or so laughs, but close to 100 quoted riffs.

That ending makes my skin crawl. The cop gets the burlesque dancer fired because "I figured being my wife would take up all your time." And she actually answers, "Even if I wanted to say no, I couldn't. You're not supposed to say no to a detective." Eww. Get a backbone, lady!

I thought this one was a bit ok when I first saw it. Then I watched it again, and really saw all of the sewer scene. Oh...my....gosh!!!!!!!!! Just about "pee my pants" funny!

I think this episode has the most unbalanced laughs-to-best-riffs ratio on the whole site.

Hey, is the doctor who brought him back to life Leon Ames of "On Moonlight Bay" and "Meet Me in St. Louis" fame? The dad in both? Or just an incredible simulation?

I love when the trio reads the other front page news highlights other than the headline that you're supposed to read... "Oh look, building code under fire!"

BLINK!
An entire movie of exposition, really? Take out the narration and them explaining previous facts that led them here, and the movie is less than 6 minutes! Perfect for MST3K to harpoon.
Hell, I'm surprised this Experiment only got 4 laughs. I thought this one was pants-pissing funny. The Invention Exchange is a classic, and the Any Excuse For A Parade Parade is pure gold. The movie contains one of my all-time favorite riffs, from Servo: "Jeez, I gotta take a big indestructible whiz!"
I saw this one for the first time on local TV here (DC) on "Count Gore DeVol's Saturday Chiller". It was nearly his best work, but I had to nab a copy when I found it on archive.org because I really loves me some Lon Chaney, Jr.
I saw Cheney Jr's name in the credits to "Undersea Kingdom" but despite my having viewed both episodes multiple times, I still can't spot him.
I was actually disappointed that Joel or the Bots passed on a chance to mock the detective's name -- Dick Chasen -- even as I was sniggering like a fool.

The guys are too classy to make fun of it, but the main cop in this movie is actually named Dick Chasen! (Dick chasin'?) LOL.
You know, it's interesting, that Lon Chaney Jr. is both in the short and the movie.
