I thought Peter Graves was the old guy on Mission Impossible. Not that he should get a star on the walk of fame for that either.

I gotta find that one.
You need to find Monster A Go Go and Beast From Yucca Flats. They’re craptastic.

Well, if that ain’t something…
Another 50s movie you might want to consider, Matt, is INVISABLE INVADERS. A bunch of invisable aliens to proud to lift their sticken feet invade earth, the human race kills them off with sound waves.

Ah, MST3K already did Monster-A-Go-Go back in their fourth season. What fun is there in redoing that?

Beast from Yucca Flats is bad, but the most ridiculously awful movie I’ve found in a lifetime of searching for awful movies is Orgy of the Dead. I dare anyone to try and watch the thing. It kind of pushes the limits of ‘fun’ bad and ‘not so fun bad’ to mindnumbing extremes.

Yeah, I thought Graves was in Mission Impossible too. Oh well. He’ll have to eat a Grammy (literally) before I consider him for a motion picture worth seeing.
Matt misspelled Raisinets!
Dude! The Blumenthal Chocolate Company of Philadelphia was the original manufacturer of Raisinets in 1927. Today they are made by the Nestle’ company.

W. Lee Wilder, director of Killers from Space, was actually the older brother of six-time Oscar winner Billy Wilder.

I’m pretty sure that this is the movie with the oh-so-racially-sensitive codenames for its jets.
I remember them hailing the plane, piloted by a black pilot, as "Tar Baby 1."
It was either this, or some other horrible movie with Peter Graves. If I ever saw these sorts of things earlier in teh evening than 3 a.m., maybe my memory would be better.

So it was Peter Graves. And he is evil. And at least I’m not the only one that thinks he sucks.
Team leader on Mission Impossible my ass. He was just too scared to do any real work. Until they brought the show back, then he tried to pretend he was Hannibal from the A-Team. Now George Peppard, there is a scary white haired actor who can lead a team.
I have no idea where I’m going with this.

Peppard can’t be scary, he was the man-whore in Breakfast at Tiffany’s who fell for Audrey Hepburn. The woman who was paying him for sex, now SHE was scary.
Speaking of movies done on MST3K, Beast of Yucca Flats was done by them too. Tor Johnson as an esteemed scientist? Comedy gold.

ha ha. orgy of the dead. at least there were boobies in it……i guess.
i like the fact that there’s a random mummy and wolfman hanging out in the swamp together. the conversation literally went: "one time, when i was in egypt, there was this snake…." "aarrrrrooooooooooo (’cause the wolfman was afraid of snakes)"
and my favorite line from the entire movie was "torture, torture, it pleasures me!!"
ah, good stuff *cough*.

You know, the posters for old movies are about 7,000 times more exiting than the acual movie. And the commercials are about 10,000 times more exciting. All you have to do is watch the commercials and look at the poster! Screw the movie, it is just gonna suck! Now, the commercials were great back then, beacuse they pretty much showed all the action the movie had to offer. You could really just make up the rest in your head. Heck, that would probably end up more convincing and exciting than the acual movie anyway. Of course, the same goes now-a-days, to tell the truth…
Oh yeah, I’m sure the end of the advent calender sucked as bad as the begginging. Although, that one picture Matt posted a while back clearly showed some sort of Santa… But I am sure that is was an exceptionally sucky santa, and what came before him was also probably sucky.

I think the hilarious thing about all the hoopla surrounding the advent calendar is matt is probably laughing his ass off about it. He made people care about a crappy thing most people wouldn’t give two seconds of thought if they saw it in a thrift store.

WHEN are you going to view "Human Highway?"
It’s SO up your alley, Matt!

I finally went and found the Advent Calendar article.
All I have to say is that, I just need to know WHAT WAS IN THE LAST DAYS? Just tell us that. Did (Mare)x4 finally get a Rob Lowe? Did a pig or camel show up? Or knowing Playmobil, was there a car? I need to know. But I can live without knowing.
