Mystery Science Theater 3000/Recap/S08/E09 I Was a Teenage Werewolf
Film watched: I Was a Teenage Werewolf
The Mystery Science Theater 3000 presentation provides examples of:
- Actor Allusion: Mike and the 'bots sing a number of riffs to the tune of the Bonanza theme song.
Tom Servo: "This is for your bed-wetting movie!" |
- I Call It Vera: Tom has a neutron machine pistol called "Lucille". He also has a tiny problem with trigger discipline.
- Public Domain Soundtrack: Observer seems to be playing a very slow rendition of Amazing Grace on his harmonica in the background of the first camping scene.
- Running Gag:
- Tony's Dairy-Throwing Antics.
- Various riffs about Tony being a werewolf/dog, before the transformation.
- Not a running gag in the episode itself, but Servo makes the quip: 'You get a lot of dirt with werewolf, you get out of clean with Tide.' It would later be used in Season 9 in the next werewolf movie...err...Werewolf
- Whole-Plot Reference: The host segments all parody the movie Alien.
- X Days Since...: Ten days since last teen pregnancy.
