This has got to be the most sleazy film they ever showed on MST3K. Even Servo is overwhelmed at a couple of points. Sure, we don't really see much of anything, really, but it's just presented in such a low, misogynist fashion. And if that wasn't enough, they kill off one of the nicer girls in the movie. Ugh!
Still, the riffing is great, considering what they have to work with. The host segments are OK, though I've have put the "Mike in the web" bit later on. And, I have to admit, the girls are somewhat attractive, even if they're all dubbed by the same person.
By the way, how come Gary turns into a "spider" when he gets bitten, but the others just die? Sorry, that sort of question assumes the filmmakers were interested in internal logic.
Tough one, here, folks.
