Mystery Science Theater 3000/Recap/S03/E02 Gamera

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


Film watched: Gamera aka Giant Monster Gamera

This is one of the nine Sandy Frank Japanese films originally used for a KTMA episode that was riffed again a few years later on Comedy Central.


The Mystery Science Theater 3000 version provides examples of:

Crow: Oh, and that's the tanks I get?

  • Leaning on the Fourth Wall: Joel rips Crow's other arm off for the latter comparing a scene in the movie where a rocket takes off into space to Joel's situation. The trope comes into play when Servo starts singing the MST3K Theme Song.

Crow: Hey, Joel--Remind you of anything?

Servo: (Singing) In the not-too-distant future...


"Bye..."
