Women of the Prehistoric Planet
The Corpse Vanishes
Joel and the robots are forced to watch a old Bela Lugosi movie about a mad scientist who is kidnapping brides in an attempt to keep his wife young. Also features a chapter of the Commander Cody serial as a lead in to the movie.
The Crawling Hand
The crew of the Satellite of Love are forced to watch The Crawling Hand, a B movie about an astronaut who disappears and then a strange disembodied hand shows up and starts killing people near the ocean. The Invention Exchange for this week is Joel developing a special saw and Doctor Forester developing an extendable arm that can compensate for Mister Reed of the Fantastic 4's special power.
Robot Monster
The feature movie, the 1953 Robot Monster, is short enough that there's time for two shorts: chapters 4 and 5 of Radar Men from the Moon. Nothing happens in any of them.
The Slime People
Joel's invention allows a person to imitate a cartoon character. Chapter 6 of Commander Cody Radar Men From The Moon serial is riffed by the Satellite of Love's crew before the main event of The Slime People. After the short, Joel, Crow and Tom Servo poke fun at slimy creatures from below the Earth who attack all the surface dwellers in LA.
Project Moonbase
Joel shows Crow and Tom Servo how he can juggle water, and then they're forced to watch chapter 7 and 8 of Comando Cody and Radar Men From The Moon before the main movie starts. The movie takes them to the moon on the big screen. In the Invention experiment, the guys invent ties of the future.
Robot Holocaust
Clayton and Larry present Chapter 9 of Robot Men from the Moon. When the film breaks, they cut to the main movie, Robot Holocaust, a 1987 movie which features a band of adventurers wandering an apocalyptic wasteland and a series of basements battling the robot Dark One and his incomprehensibly accented assistant Valeria.
Moon Zero Two
The Mads send Moon Zero Two, a bizarre Hammer 1960s flick which combines an animated sequence, cheesy special effects, the "acting" of James Olson and his disturbingly large forehead, Bond-style music, and a plot taken from an American Western.
Untamed Youth
The Black Scorpion
Joel and the bots take on The Black Scorpion, a 1957 Mexican-American movie with special effects by Willis O'Brien. A drooling over-sized black scorpion takes on the Mexican government and nobody wins.
