We are bad mothers!
26 October 2002
Warning: Spoilers
My favorite episode of MST3K was this one, simply because I had the pleasure of seeing this gem way back when I was a little kid, and knew what to expect. I mean, for a five year old, this movie sounds pretty awesome, right?

Okay maybe not. And admittedly, I thought the best part about it then and when I saw it on MST was Megaweapon . . . and the fact that you still see the bullet holes in the 'Warrior's' jacket throughout the movie from the beginning. Truly spectacular.

If you haven't seen the MST version, then I pity you. You're missing out on having everyone cheer for Megaweapon (and who doesn't?) and the infamous 'Do you have any fruit?', and 'We are bad mothers' -- 'Bad mothers, and the fathers who love them.'

And if you haven't seen this movie at all, why are you sitting here reading this? Go track it down! Hire professional bounty hunters to find it! It features a walking shag rug as the 'hero', the bald chick from Star Trek and . . . oh yeah, MEGAFORCE!!!! with hair, and everyone's favorite Donald Pleasance as -- count 'em -- TWO bad guys (well, they're clones, so I guess that's just one). It's got a junkyard scene full of karate school rejects, fat women, midgets and other weirdos that should (if you didn't already know) tip you off that this movie is from Italy. Oh, and it's got a TREMENDOUSLY ANNOYING 'JIVE' TALKING MOTORCYCLE, which fortunately (spoiler - but I hope no one actually wants to maintain an element of surprise with this movie's plot) gets crushed under the MEGAwheels of MEGAWEAPON!!! MEGAWEAPON!!! But the bike makes a mysterious comeback at the end of the film, so don't get too happy.

They should have just called this movie 'Megaweapon', and followed the travels and times of that loveable fire-belching truck.

Anyways, I'll go, cause right now I'm watching 'Codename: Venegeance', another 'Ginty' movie that has no comments as of yet! Ahhh, to be the first!
