MST3K 802: The Leech Woman
In my latest "project" of watching the second episode from each season of Mystery Science Theater 3000, I do have to admit that I seem to be looking forward more to the "Mike episodes" than I did to the "Joel episodes." That's perhaps caught my attention where I previously might have just accepted it because of late I also seem to be contemplating philosophies towards the show and the whole matter of "finding unintentional enjoyment in cheesy movies," and wondering if I might agree more with some hypothetical "Joel approach" than with a "Mike approach" while still contrasting that with actual experience... although, equipped most of all with the general desire to not pick favourites because of what that might imply about the things not picked as favourites, I may not have been thinking about it that much. In any case, I was looking forward to "The Leech Woman" because it may have been one of those episodes that surprised me when I first saw it, the reputation of its movie perhaps not quite as outrageous as that of others but very enjoyable all the same.
( 'Wow, it's a really seamless blending of stock footage.' )
