      Muffins McGeez - agreed, and I know it would be a windfall for Mark if he had a lot more subs. But I kind of like that we're a fairly small but ferociously loyal bunch. When he does take off, we can say we watched him when he was below a quarter million subs!

    I have a feeling the reason we got that atrocious ending was because the previous director never filmed the ending and they probably didn’t have the same actors to work with. So they basically just gave us a non ending.

    This movie is infamous for the quote "Suddenly, there was no monster." (actually a misquote, much like "Play it again, Sam", just one of the many things this film has in common with Casablanca). And while I don't think they gave it much thought, it was just a voice over line to try to paper over the fact that they had never filmed any actual ending to this movie at all, to whatever extent any meaning *can* be gleaned from those lines, my interpretation is considerably trippier than Mark's: I think they were going for some vague notion that reality suddenly shifted and they were now in some sort of Parallel Universe where events had unfolded differently and the monster had never existed. Because that's not a cop-out at all!
    (Other things this film shares with Casabanca:
    -They're both in Black & White
    -They both feature flying vehicles shown in a ridiculously small scale: the capsule in Monster A GO-G-O and for Casablanca, in the finale that takes place at an airfield at night there's an establishing shot where you see a plane in the background being worked on by two mechanics. That's actually a forced perspective shot done in a small studio where the plane is in reality a half-sized miniature made to look further away than it actually is and the two mechanics are midgets to help pull off the illusion.
    -Neither film features Joe Don Baker
    -Both films were largely made up as they went along, and neither had a clear idea what the ending would be before they actually shot it. In the case of Casablanca, they couldn't decide if Ilsa should stay with Rick at the end or leave with Lazlo, and when they couldn't put it off any longer they decided to shoot both endings and figure it out later, but after shooting the now-classic first ending where Rick convinces Ilsa to get on the plane they knew they nailed it and never even bothered filming the second. Meanwhile Monster A GO-GO went them one better and never filmed any ending at all, instead just coming up with some bullshit voice-over to handwave away the entire movie.)

    • @alexmuenster2102
      @alexmuenster2102 Před rokem +1

      Like your take on similarities with "Casablanca." But just imagine if, in the penultimate scene of "Casablanca," a narrator had intoned: "But then suddenly, there *was* no Major Strasser! In fact, there *were* no Nazis! And Victor Lazlo was actually a balding high school chemistry teacher from Pennsylvania! Ilsa was in reality his overweight, peroxide-blonde wife! Rick was a diabetic toll-booth attendant, and Sam his anorexic roommate!"

    OH God! I saw this in one of the DVDs from MST3K. The copy they used was so deteriorated that they even acknowledged on the movie that they were just improvising because they couldn't understand what the actors were saying and what's going on.
    "I recall this episode as being the first time we decided explicitly to write sketches having nothing to do with the movie. Really, we had no choice. (...A)ny topic that is about something (that is, any topic that exhibits "topicness") cannot, by definition, have anything to do with this movie."
    -Paul Chaplin, The Mystery Science Theater 3000 Amazing Colossal Episode Guide
    Tom and Crow were so upset at the movie, that the metaphor for its badness had to be done in paragraphs. And they where in tears as they say it.
    "Joel, it's this movie. It was really depressing! It was like being a little kid and eating dinner at your Aunt Ruth's apartment in the summer, and it's hot in there and she's got a local Christian radio station on, and there's nothing to do or look at 'cause all she's got in the apartment are Good Housekeeping magazines and linen doilies!"
    Then i saw this movie like it is, without a riff track or anything. I am not joking, only movie in all my life that made me want to... delete myself from earth (Again, this is not a way to say it, i truly wanted that from the sadness this movie made me feel). Really horrible stuff, and the audio track was so damaged that my brain just felt like end it all. I cried but not for a reason i can explain, ilustrate or rationalize.
    For me is like someone or something compressed the 7th layer of hell in a film. There is no way a real group of humans would do this by mistake. This was made with the sole purpose of bringing sadness and despair to earth.

      This was the first MST3K I ever saw. I had just spent 28 hours straight awake on a road trip from Orange County to Ft. Worth Texas to meet my friend who was going to school there. As soon as my friends and I piled out of the van we watched this at his place. I remember dying in laughter at the Circus on Ice short that got riffed as the appetizer...and then watched this monstrosity in feverish horror before finally collapsing. It sparked a lifelong love of MST3K, but I must admit I've only been able to get through it once or twice in the 30 years since I saw it. Watching it without a riff track...you're a better man that I, Gunga Din.

    • @Dr0p0fahat
      @Dr0p0fahat Před 2 lety +3

      Isn't it obvious? Big reveal - THERE NEVER WAS A MONSTER. What we were seeing was an extension of the astronaut's perception of himself. He no longer saw himself as a member of the earth-based community, so he reached out to beings who, to him, were alien, and in doing so, his high levels of radiation accidentally killed them. He eventually accepted his new status and handed himself over the proper authorities, and... okay, I'm sorry, I can no longer do this with a straight face. It's just a load of shit that went unfinished and went though multiple hands to try to finish it. Mark managed to make the sections we had to sit through palatable because he's brilliant.

    • @tskmaster3837
      @tskmaster3837 Před 2 lety +7

      What was the point of the movie?
      Herschell Gordon Lewis bought an unfinished movie from Bill Rebane's production company to fill out the second half of a double feature. He shot some additional footage, slapped on an ending or slapped the ending senseless, did some quick editing and fun fact: HGL is the narrator. A notorious bad movie director bought the footage from an even worse director to create some sort of bad movie alchemy.
      What was the point of Bill Rebane's move? He saw the Creeping Unknown and thought "I can do this" and then failed to do it. That's Creeping Unknown or the Quatermass Xperiment, not the Creeping Terror though it's easy to confuse two of them.

A+++ stuff, and your editing jokes and humor get me pretty much every time! Hopefully it's fun for you to make, too!
    Thanks for all the introductions to badness, and So Bad It's Goodness so far! Looking forward to more!
    Also, I have a recommendation for you if you find the time or interest.
    There's a movie nobody's heard of called "Choke" starring Dennis Hopper and Michael Madsen that is full of ridiculousness that it really tries to play seriously. I was surprised that the two of them were in a movie I'd never heard of, until I watched it. It's the worst Everything, in a great way. (I would believe someone if they told me Dennis Hopper couldn't read, having seen this movie)
    The whole movie can be seen on youtube now, too (here in the US, at least.)
    Info on it's kinda tricky, but the director put a trailer for the film on his own youtube channel years back, and left a bunch of replies to comments that are... I'll just keep sticking with 'interesting'. Hahaha
    Anyway! Love what you do, always looking forward to more! Positive Vibes!

    So appearantly, Bill Rebane started working on this flick (then called "Terror at Midnight") when he was only 24 years old. It would have been his directional debut, but he ran out of what little money he had. Which makes me wonder how it would have been if he had completed it as originally intended. I mean, it still wouldn't have been good. It still would have been a Z-grade flick, but I bet it would have been a little more comprehensible with an ending that makes more sense. I mean, the film only really starts derailing when the Lewis-directed bits begin. The Voiceovers and that Twist-ending was also all Lewis' doing.

    Mark, I LOVE your work! I do wish you had touched on the "a go go" part of the title.
    Here's my take: the film was released in 1965. It was the Era of "go go", go go dancers, music etc. They added "go go" to the title to try to make the film "hip".

This guy is not only helping me with understanding filmography, screenwriting, character and story development, post production, etc.; He is also damn hilarious and entertaining. I get pretty excited whenever he has a new video.

    I follow this channel since years and I can’t understand where the 1 M. subscribers are. But I like he has many Patreons and I am going to become one more. But there are many high quality channels out there, but Mark beats them all with his production value, his great eye for flaws I wouldn’t have recognised, his good knowledge of film making (within another channel I am making short movies too), his quotes and jokes (never have to laugh really in other videos but Mark makes me lol!) and he is a guy you wants to be friends with. Great.

    So before even watching I have to say thank you so much for covering this movie. I have absolutely been fascinated with this movie since I first saw it riffed on mystery science theater. I’ve probably seen that movie 40 times by now since then. despite there being several minutes of annoying beeping near the end I used to fall asleep to it because the drab dull barely recorded audio of scientists talking about radiation always helps me drift off.
    This movie also always reminded me of the incredible melting man and similar movies where an astronaut becomes the monster but incredible melting man has some charm to it and good effects despite the stupid lazy plot. Meanwhile Monster A GO-HOME can’t even bother to record actors or scenes or plot action endings…. BOOOO! BOOOOOOOOO! Boooooo!

    I am paused at 2 minutes. Mark just gave the premise of the film. We detect something in orbit, send a capsule up for a better look, it loses contact, and then it's found back on earth a few days later. That is a pretty good idea for a story. What could possibly go wrong?
    Edit: I finished the video. I.. wow. The best part of this movie were the parts I didn't have to watch.
    Hilarious video as always, though.

    As a child of the 50s I followed the Mercury program as avidly as anyone else, and the diminutive size of the Mercury capsule @3:25 was a FEATURE! It was meant to be a one-seater and carry the pilot for less than one orbit of the earth at first. "Start small but think big" seemed to be the NASA philosophy in the early 60s...

If not, whose genius idea was it to dub in constant dog barking, and what was their reasoning for doing so? Is it supposed to signal "monster approaching?"

    2:20 that’s spring reverb if I’ve ever heard it, maybe they amped and re recorded the audio through a guitar or Hammond organ amp to raise the level and forgot to turn the reverb off?
    It kinda makes sense when the guy is on the microphone, common audio trick to make it sound “official,” but the conversation when they’re just standing around is an obvious technical fail.
    This concludes audio dork minute. Like and subscribe. To Mark that is, awesome channel.
