Customer Reviews of Mystery Science Theater 3000 - The Crawling Hand
Enjoyable even if not side-splitting As a long-time MSTie, I would like to offer a different viewpoint on this episode. <
> <
>First, the not-so-good: This is definitely not the funniest season one episode, nor is it the most "different" (in so far as it is a sci-fi/horror flick that could just as easily have been part of season eight, say), and there are a few glaring moments when the jokes just stop coming. As a result, some viewers may find this DVD disappointing. <

>Having said that, I am not disappointed. I think this is easily one of the most entertaining episodes in season one, even if it is not the funniest. I find that some of the older episodes are quite enjoyable without being as hilarious or as polished as the show would later become; other examples of this would include The Black Scorpion and The Crawling Eye. This film is a great example of why I got into B-movies in the first place, before I was introduced to MST3K: the story is bizarre, the actor's performances uneven, the special effects are poor, and there are odd moments of levity juxtaposed against a confusing backdrop of gloom. <

>Also, keep in mind that while admittedly awful, this movie is far above the level of train-wrecks like Manos, The Incredibly Strange Creatures, or the Creeping Terror. No, I would not recommend watching it unMSTed, but I think that it is easier to wade thru then a lot of Best Brain's other material. So if you're like me, and derive some of your enjoyment of this series from elements other than the riffs themselves, this could be a worthwhile purchase. If, on the other-hand, you don't care about the host segments or the films themselves, you probably should look elsewhere. But, even this episode has a few classic lines -- I will never get over "Tell him I'm smoking" or "O magic lamp...." ^_-
Five Stars for Laughs
What pathetic dialogue and horrible screen shots. The hand only has a close up, or a distant shot. Your 9 year old could do a better job. So why not laugh with Joel and his robot friends? Their dialogue is much better. This is a great movie to put down.
Outstanding entertainment
I love this series and can't get enough. I was so sad to see the show end.
