Mystery Science Theater 3000 - The Brain That Wouldn't Die Reviews
What an entrance
Mike's first show... perfection. The jokes are flyin and fresh from the electric skillet of comedy. An irrational doctor tries to restore his wife to her former self by cutting off another woman's head and replacing it with her's. And so, the body search is on...every sleazy nightclub and questionable beauty pageant will be perused by this devil of a man.
The jokes are great in this one. His wife is kept alive in a pan while her head soaks in some disgusting liquid (melted beets, possibly?). But, the doctor's skeleton in the closet gets him in the end... and by skeleton I mean horribly disfigured, living-dead hulk. It eats part of the doctor's neck and carries a girl to safety--But not before tearing the one good arm off of his lab assistant. "How am I ever gonna tell fish stories?" Crow says for the de-limbed man.
What I learned from this movie is that everyone trusts a crazy doctor who tries to measure the necks of women while simultaneously groping them.
Just a normal Tuesday for Cher...
Even though my favorite episodes are Pod People and Mitchell, this one is a close third. As Mike's first episode on the SOL, the bots have been training him for his first experiment. Mike fares pretty well on his first movie. However, most of Mike's quips lack the cynicism that we have come to expect, know and love from Joel. At one point, he says: "You sleazy...You know, I don't like this guy anymore! That's it!" Don't get me wrong, he is still hilarious. Tom and Crow are at the top of their game in this one, rattling off sarcastic lines almost faster than one can catch them. "Can I have that back? Yeah, I kinda need it; it's my NECK!" "It's nice and all, but I want something sleazy." "Well, she can't have a cardboard body, I've ruled that out."
During one of the host segments, the bots convince Mike to share a painful thing from his past, which is sad or funny, depending on your point of view.
The movie ends strangely, Mike remarking, "Oh, I get it! It was a comedy!"
Anyway, the guys are "visited" by the character in the movie, who gets mad at Mike.
So, buy this episode, 'cause it's good.
