Mystery Science Theater 3000: The Mask in 3D (2022)
PUT THE MASK ON NOW!
Love the Multimask device, the Tom Atkins skit (especially Pearl's clone dressed up as Mrs. Kelly alongside parodying the zoom shot of her), "They Won't Come" song (spoof of "Monster Mash"), "B. C. - Before Cronenberg" and the stinger at the end.
Trivia: The landlady's scream on the film was also the "Scream of Fright" on Disney's Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (if you listen carefully). Not bad for this Disney/MST3K fan.
My favorite episode of Season 13 (The Xmas Dragon is second with Munchie on third) which I'm glad I saw them on Pluto TV not too long ago (more accessible than at the Gizmoplex).
Serial Metaphysics (1972)
WWD
Pros: Nice use of Gustav Holst's The Planets, Rachmaninov' and Elmer Fudd (the audio clip used in question is from Bob Clampett's 1943 Fantasia spoof A Corny Concerto); understand where the critique of consumerism comes in as explained by the filmmaker himself; out of context moments obviously (e.g. Girl with bubble gum as seen from the perspective of boy on top of a tree wearing shades); glad I saw it on WWD's official Vimeo account
Cons: Hard not to say no to those old commercials these days.
Don't listen to that one star review complaining about how "no thought" was put into it (I read that WWD made this in a single night).
Christmas with RiffTrax: Santa's Village of Madness (2012)
Oh, My Ulcers!
Three shorts featuring K. Gordon Murray 's "established" characters in Santa's "enchanted" place (read bizarre-looking amusement parks).
The first short was also featured on the live version of Santa and the Ice Cream Bunny. Stinky the Skunk just minding his own business while Ferocious Wolf works his tail off before trying to find that skunk.
Second one is mostly Wolf complaining about Stinky's rear end before Puss in Boots comes to defend the skunk while Santa talks to Merlin about the 5th dimension.
The third and last of the bunch involves a monster wanting the children of world go bad.
And no devil this time. But lots of shoddy costumes (especially for Stinky, Wolf and Mr. In Boots), poorly shot moments and times Merlin singing "ta-da, ta-da, ta-da, ta-da".
