MST3K:The Girl in Lover's Lane

The Girl in Lovers Lane is the tale of Big Stupid and his dopey buddy who blow into town on their way to nowhere. Here, Big falls for the counter girl at the malt shop, or, rather the counter girl falls for Big and the dopey buddy needs to be changed. Kerry, the counter girl, eager to go out for a walk with Big, explains to her father why she likes Big so much:" Hes easy to talk to". To which her father replies, " your grandmothers easy to talk to-take a walk with HER". This is not a bad movie. A little slow perhaps but the MST crew keep it very lively with their assortment of wisecracks throughout. A train barreling down the tracks straight at the audience-Joel: "CAMERA 3 GET OFF THE TRACKS AAAAAGHHH!!!" A definate highlight of this episode is Joel and the bots intermission skit where they sing a hobo train song-funny and delightful all rolled up into one! And the discs bonus feature called "behind the scenes MST3K scrapbook scraps II" is incredibly interesting (if you like MST) wherein we get to see backstage during filming and script rehearsal.     12/30/10
