814 - Riding with Death
Chat Comments (88) Best Riffs (272)
All I really have to say to this movie is "...really?". I'm a truck driving fbi agent who can turn invisible...ok that's enough.
Having lived most of my life in Southern California, "the elusive Robert Denby" couldn't have been more than hour away from them, in traffic. Also, who the hell was filming the scenes Abby was watching? Cambot?
Dr. Hale doesn't exactly lead a criminal empire, and he had no way of knowing that Casey would stop at that particular gas station, anyway.
So, this movie features, without explanation, a sociopathic serial killer mechanic who disables brakes for no reason. I wish the whole thing was just about him; he probably has a pretty interesting life.
I love how Bobo plays a bugle NOT in the harmonic series.
1:21:25 I'm surprised they didn't say "Some days you just can't get rid of a bomb!" anywhere in here.
45:13 Get it? "Wheel do"? BECAUSE THEY'RE IN TRUCKS!
By my count he cleaned those glasses for a minute and 5 seconds.... very thorough
I want to know if they actually figured out the number of turkeys it would take to fill the SOL.
Y'know, I never knew deuterium had such fascinating properties! I always thought it was just like hydrogen, only heavier.
How can this be the 70s when Sam Casey already graduated from Harvard Law in 1983?
Soooo, am I the only one that thinks this movie doesn't seem that bad? I mean, it's not /good/, but it seemed like harmless fun. I've seen waaaay worse covered on MST3K. ...Then again, Mike/Joel and the bots make every film they cover more entertaining by default, and I WAS making Phoenix Wrights sprites in Photoshop while watching this... I don't know.
...As an aside, pretty sure there's going to be more people watching today because of Snowmaggedon '15.
?I see your point, but don't you think that journalists are becoming more similar as the regions themselves become less distinct?" Wow, that's damn near prophetic.
what Mike says about Matthew Broderick when the title comes up is a reference to an incident in Ireland where Broderick crashed into another car killing a mother and daughter. very little known tid-bit,, he recieved no punishment and claims to not remember
So the whole premise of the movie - that Ben Murphy can turn invisible at any moment, doesn't actually have anything to do with the move *at all* and only "helps" him in situations he could easily handle regularly?
And both 'disasters' involve getting a vehicle that's about to explode far enough so it doesn't singe anyone's hair?
Buffalo Bill looks like Jack Nicholson in Five Easy Pieces, except without the strange demented intelligence.
Karl!!! The "K" in MST3K!! The inventor of lightning!!!
if you saw RIFFTRAX GODZILLA in August(2014) did you pick up on the Turkey Volume Guessing Man riff Mike did aimed at Bill???
I loved it!!!
This movie is an unintentional surrealist masterpiece.
This is probably one of my favorite episodes, I love how little sense it makes with all the edits to make it into a "movie" I wonder if anybody else has made the connection that the character of Robert Denby might have been based on Roger Penske. Penske was and still is a major player in racing including the TransAm series which is what Denby was trying to blow up. Penske's team had close dealings with Porsche and worked with them over in Berlin (east or west?) to soup up some their CanAm car. Both their names sound very much like plus Roger Penske is elusive as Robert Denby. What I'm trying to say is that I like Roger Penske.
This flick is endlessly weird but i happened to come across the diary of the key grip on the film, Andrew V. Soong, while doing research at the Priscilla Ptomkin Library in Bluffville, Mo.. Apparently Mr. Soong had moved to LA and was part of a crew painting the apartment of the film's female lead, Trisha Faloon. He apparently developed a lifelong fascination with her career and in the end, murdered Ms. Faloon on the eve of her wedding in 1989. In his diary he relates the story of being hired by the director as key grip upon the recommendation of Ms. Faloon even though he had no experience in movie making. In fact, the character of Wild Bill was fashioned and played by another member of the painting crew, Willie Harbuncle, who had a great uncle who had played concertina in the Harry Speck Jug Band during the mid-1930s. Willie was beaten to death in 1993 after his audition at the Pineview Terrace and Bowl-a-Rama was interrupted by hecklers from the Daisy Chain Bakery Bowling Team. Anywho, the continuity problems one finds in "Riding With Death," are explained in the diary by the persistent interference of the wife of the executive producer, Tilly Schmully. Mrs. Schmully had recently gained her release from the Sonoma Restorative Center for the Greatly Puzzled and was now determined to finally begin her career as a General Annoyance. Her contrary attitude resulted in the addition of the stock racing scenes and the expansion of the script from a story of transporting a dangerous explosive to the more involved plotting revolving around the enmity of the head of Intersect towards Robert Denby. Rumors of a romantic link between Mrs. Faloon and Wild Bill are confirmed by the diary entries. These two then were able to have themselves appointed as supervisors of the final edit.
Is there something I'm missing? WHY ARE THEY TRYING TO BLOW UP THE CAR??? D: I get it that at the end they want to kill the Intersect agents, but why do they want to blow up the car before that? WHY??? WHYYYYYYYYYY????
I love how Mike answers the WWII field phone.
"Helloo? :D"
I still cant figure out what he was actually saying when you hear "New England Journalists". was it "you cant jiggle this"? or ..well thats my only guess. Always stumps me. I've gone back and listened intently...he is saying "new england journalists" LMAO
i love the sexual undertones in the semi breaking scene
I wonder if Sam ever got all the rice in China.
About 95% sure the beginning at Intersect was the set from Colossus: The Forbin Project. The screen showing the sine "equations" definitely was used in the movie.
PS, That would've made the PERFECT movie for this show to riff....
Gods help me, I remember this show from when I was a kid.
The soundtrack to this one sounds like Pink Floyd's "Atom Heart Mother Suite", mainly in the horn-heavy sections. Good album....
So does Turkey Volume Guessing Man use frozen turkeys or live turkeys as his unit of measure?
The real irony here is that Dr. Hale has invented an explosive 3 times more powerful than Nitroglycerin and made from common chemicals...and instead of selling it as *an explosive three times more powerful than Nitroglycerin*, he comes up with this elaborate fraud to portray it as a fuel additive.
The Original Movie posted here is not the same as the version riffed on MST3K:
- The movie begins with a shot of a USN destroyer, not the gooey LA sky. Sam catchy theme music.
- Opens with a section from the pilot showing how Sam became invisible during a diving accident and has a 15 minute limit on invisibility per day. (How they know that is not explained.) The computer room "back story database" scene and the red tinged flashback scene (with some of the same origin material) does not appear.
- Abby doesn't have the acid kick in and doesn't appear in the second epi.. half of the movie.
- The bar fight after Buffalo sings is cut. (possibly the best part of the movie.)
I lost my rig to the mortgage people.... or was it the Village people?
The glasses cleaning scene made me snort.
That guy really does look like Peter Fonda...hahaha....
Am I getting this correct or did I miss something? Despite running behind schedule Ben inexplicably stops into a service station to have his shocks checked. Despite Dr. Hale having no way of knowing Sam would stop there, Hale just so happens to have the mechanic involved as a participant in his scheme, and so the bad mechanic cuts Sam's brake line. The only explanation for this is that Hale apparently has every person on the route involved, and while that notion is preposterous, when the mechanic tells Sam the shocks are fine, Sam replies, "I thought they were all right." OK, then why in the hell did he stop then? This movie is killing me.
So here's what I want to know: When the boss first tells his staff scientist that his testimony is going to finally put Denby away, what in the hell is he basing that on?
As near as I can tell, the test was aimed at establishing the plausibility of the thing he speculated might have happened. So when it's successful, they prove that it really did might have happened! The scientist even prefaces the demonstration by saying this is what would have happened if they had somehow managed to get the explosive onto the controls. I don't think "It's possible he did this" usually stands up as an argument in court. If the chief thinks otherwise, I can see why a judge granted the suspect a restraining order.
For that matter, is there really anything to convict Denby on at the end? The impression I got was that he was trying to destroy the car in order to get rid of evidence, which he did quite successfully. So all Intersect really had at the end was a guy in the back of a van and some scientist's testimony that a vaguely defined radio signal came from the general direction of where that van had been. Doesn't exactly seem like an open-and-shut case, especially when presented by a guy who illegally violated a restraining order to obtain that evidence.
I love MST's treatment if thus mov..er program, but I just watched "Being FromAnother Planet", and Ben Murphy looks soooooo much better in men's clothes than in his aunt Matildas clothes. His outfits in this episode really has me laughing so hard the tears run down my legs.
How do you have a Harvard-educated federal agent with an interpersonal IQ low enough to think that an adult professional he's meeting for the first time would want to do the homie handshake.
I'm not a lawyer. But are you allowed to violate a restraining order to wish someone luck in an upcoming race?
One of my favorite riffs in this episode that just doesn't translate to print is at 1:02:52. The glasses guy is going to go and confront Denby, and the assistant is complaining and then, Mike says, "NOOO!" And the whiny tone is just so perfect.
Bad beyond the usual bad acting alert. 1:20:15. Sorry Cupcake, but no Oscar for you.
"Tripolydine's an explosive!?" Well yeah, most fuels are.
I hope no bad guys ever get their hands on that Top Secret File reciter or we're all in trouble.
Who, I ask, WHO would carry on a conversation for that long on the telephone without realizing no one was on the other end? Just one of those irritating moments that add up to one weak movie.
As soon as I saw Casey's denim jacket at the beginning I knew this had to be made in '75 or 76.
When i saw that Samsung galaxy gear watch/phone commercial, I thought for sure that they were going to show the watch from this movie
Every so often I'll turn this one on, thinking "Okay, this time I'm going to focus and finally figure out what the hell Denby's evil plan is." But invariably, before I know it, he's blowing up his car for no apparent reason. Has anyone figured out what's going on?
I really like that Luther Stark character. The delivery of his lines is so ridiculously over-the-top. "No way, my girl. No way." and "This can't be?! You're dead!!"
When i found out this was a couple of episodes of a TV show stapled together I understood the distinctly 'Hart to Hart' "Dukes of Hazzard" vibe I got from this. God, im old.
Somebody should really tell Driscoll that Holmes didn't catch Moriarty, they killed each other.
Added part 1 of the unriffed version--10 parts total (sorry)
(10:23) I love the whining sound when that Ben Murphy guy skids to a stop on the motorcycle.
I'm sorry. Even with the riffs I can't finish this one. It just sucks so hard!
Oh man, Servo was in top form this time. The whole episode. The squeaky noises during the glasses cleaning sequence, butt-less trucker, etc. I was laughing the whole way through just from him alone. Just another reminder why Murphy is my fave.
Huh, if Sam Casey met Max Keller...
Three planets so far! I need to recruit him to our Starfleet Commander Alliance!
The only thing is missing is an talking car
"What should we call our series about the INVISIBLE SECRET AGENT?"
"How about 'Riding With Death'?"
"Perfect, really tells the story."
How To Tell You're Cool
Step 1: Be in the '70s
Step 2: Call people "turkey"
I may regret asking this but what is a naked burpee?
I like how in the beginning they steal a scene straight out of Colossus: The Forbin Project. Joel and TV's Frank would be proud.
You know I completely understood voyeuristic Abby's advice to Sam during the big race to, "give it the old college try," as Harvard has a long tradition of producing the nation's finest stock car drivers. Hence, its reputation as "NASCAR U."
This episode is actually therapeutic. If you feel bad, this will cure your ills. One of the utterly dumbest movies of all time, but I'm so glad it was made. What idiot in 1976 thought this was worth the price of the film?
Em...could be wrong, don't think I am, but air brakes are designed to close when you cut them. I think the emergency side roads are for when you've burnt them up...also, where was the emergency side road! XD
ben murphey has mitt romney's smile.
How the hell does Sam not hear the sound of the chopper blades coming through the intercom?
"I HATE YOU MIKE!!!" - Crow @ 1:08:00
Hah! In the opening scene Mike "eats crow"!
The glasses cleaning scene made me laugh literally until my sides hurt. Made my day. Seriously. Was having a really terrible day until I started watching this episode. I needed that laugh.
Why does Abby hang up on Air Swiss as if she's afraid that they're going to figure out who she was? That's just rude.
lol 70 mpg the FUTURE!
I'm no trucker (or invisible secret agent) but why stop to check your shocks when you think they're fine and you need to step on it? Such a pointless plot-driven point...
"Can't see a thing with these glasses on. What happened?" Maybe he should have cleaned them better.
Another classic MST3K, The comments servo made on that buffalo bill guy really had me loling hard.
As an homage to this flick, I am filling a helicopter with turkeys, and tossing them out over the city... Oh the humanity! As God is my witness, I swear I thought turkeys could fly!
one of my favorite episodes. Even just for the opening segments. mike nelson destroyer of worlds
This episode is made great by the "New England journalists" bit if nothing else.
PSA: link 3 is better quality
ben murphy makes a damn good mst3k. too bad my copy of being from another planet is terrible!!
...I say 'mine'. I mean I typed out what Nelson, Corbett, Chaplin, Murphy, Jones and Pehl thought up, wrote and performed the best part of two decades ago, but still I consider them 'mine'. Because I've fallen in love with Katherine Crawford, and I cherish these 'memories' of the time we had together. Abbey... She's some gal..
Sixty 'Best Riffs'? And. The crowd. Goes. Wild. The punters, they do love this, do they not? Admittedly, many of those *were* mine, but hey...
Servo with his new butt-less trucker body has to be one of the funniest sight gags in the whole series.

Drugs overdoses have surpassed HIV and homicide as the leading cause of death among homeless adults in Boston, with opioid painkillers accounting for 8 out of every 10 overdoses, according to a new study.
Researchers at Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) and the Boston Health Care for the Homeless Program studied over 1,300 homeless deaths in the city from 2003 to 2008. They found a dramatic change from a similar mortality study released in 1997, when the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) was the leading cause of death.
HIV deaths among the homeless have plunged in recent years, but they've been offset by three and two-fold increases in deaths caused by drug overdose and psychoactive substance abuse disorders.
"Our findings are an unfortunate reminder of the high mortality rate of homeless people and a clarion call for the need to address the epidemic of drug overdose deaths in this vulnerable population," said Travis Baggett, MD, of the MGH Department of Medicine, who led the study that is being published in JAMA Internal Medicine.
Drug overdoses accounted for almost 17 percent of all deaths among the homeless patients studied. Eighty-one percent of the overdoses involved opioid drugs; of these, heroin was identified in 13%, opioid analgesics in 31%, and other narcotics in 60%.
"The dramatic rise in drug overdose deaths reflects a broader nationwide trend in drug poisoning mortality fueled largely by rising opioid-related deaths. Such deaths are fundamentally preventable," the report said.
"Given the high prevalence of both chronic pain and addiction in homeless persons, health care organizations serving this population may wish to develop standardized pain management protocols to help ensure safe, effective, and appropriate opioid prescribing."
Researchers found that cancer and heart disease accounted for nearly 16% of deaths among the homeless population. Health issues associated with substance abuse – such as alcoholism-associated heart disease, pneumonia and withdrawal – accounted for 8% of deaths.
While there was no significant change in the overall homeless death rate, homeless people still have a mortality rate much higher than the general population.
"Overall, young homeless people died at a nine times higher rate and middle-aged homeless people at a four-and-a-half times higher rate than comparably aged adults in Massachusetts," said Baggett.
The current study updates the previous study that covered the years 1988 to 1993. That report found that HIV was the leading cause of death among homeless patients aged 25 to 44, while homicide was the principal cause among those 18 to 24. Heart disease and cancer were the leading causes of death in those 45 to 64.
Mortality was higher in white patients than in black or Hispanic homeless, which researchers say may be due to a disproportionate share of substance abuse and mental illness among white homeless individuals as compared to homeless minorities.
"Our results highlight the dire need to expand addiction and mental health services and to better integrate them into primary care systems serving homeless people," says Baggett, who is also an instructor in Medicine at Harvard Medical School.

Two quotes: "…with opioid painkillers accounting for 8 out of every 10 overdoses."; and "Eighty-one percent of the overdoses involved opioid drugs; of these, heroin was identified in 13%, opioid analgesics in 31%, and other narcotics in 60%."
Isn't 31% more like 3 out of every 10? Heroin is not an opioid "painkiller" in the United States, and who knows exactly what makes up "other narcotics".

* This is yet another reason why people are considering Fordham's Fashion Law LL.M.: "Every designer should have a minimum degree of legal literacy, if only to know when to seek a legal opinion — and to avoid being sent to sit at the kids' table." [New York Times]

Originally written on Bush League Chronicle | Last updated 9/5/13
How much is a number worth these days? Apparently, a lot more than $24,000. San Francisco 49ers running back Anthony Dixon is so enamored with the No. 24 that he decided to turn down a $24,000 offer from new teammate Ndamdi Asomugha in order to switch. "We tried to go $24K for 24, but I told him, 'No, I'm going to keep my 24,'" said Dixon. The two players were allowed to wear the number during training camp because there were so many players and doubling up was almost necessary. However, now that the roster has been trimmed to 53 players, sharing numbers is no longer permitted, and there will be only one 49er donning the No. 24 this season. And that players is Dixon. "I worked hard to get that number when I first got here," Dixon said. "I worked hard to get it off somebody else. I've been No. 24 since high school and college. I'm not ready to sell it, yet." The key word in that quote from Dixon is "yet." Every man has his price and Dixon's is clearly much more than $24,000. Via For the Win

Students partner with local organizations to exhibit their work
For decades, students in CIA's design majors have been serving internships with manufacturers and design consultancies, and, in the process, making helpful contacts and gaining valuable professional experience before graduation.
With notable exceptions, students pursuing visual arts generally have not had access to comparable internship experiences. Until now.
Thanks to a grant from the Fenn Educational Fund of the Cleveland Foundation, and some smart thinking by faculty and staff members, CIA this year facilitated Creativity Works, a program of self-initiated internship experiences for students looking forward to careers as visual artists.
The result: five juniors lined up community organizations as internship hosts, wrote...continue reading

Born: 12/10/90
Height: 6-5 / 1.96
Weight:210 lbs. / 95.3 kg.
Darren Wolfson: Golden Valley's Trent Lockett (Hopkins HS) will play for the #Pacers in summer league. Yes, I am biased toward Golden Valleyites.
Gino Pilato: According to a source, Trent Lockett has fielded even more NBA teams' interest after Summer League with the NBA D-League Select Team.
The Sacramento Kings have waived guard Trent Lockett, it was announced today by General Manager Pete D'Alessandro.
18 Oct 13
But from practices, Malone is already a fan of Lockett's intangibles. "He loves a challenge," Malone said. "I always quiz our guys and ask them questions, and Trent is always right on point and understands exactly what we're doing and the terminology, in our belief system, in our core philosophy. He's a bright kid, and I think he'll have a chance to play in the league in the future."
Kings coach Michael Malone believes Trent Lockett is a perfect fit for the new culture in Sacramento. And he'd like him to be around in some form. "(Lockett) has a chance to make the team," Malone said. "And if he doesn't make the team, obviously we would love for him to be in our D-League system so we could continue to monitor his progress as he continues to mature and get better."
Trent Lockett: Thank you to the Kings organization for such a great opportunity. Also thank you to everyone who has helped me throughout my journey.
The Sacramento Kings announced today the organization has signed guard Trent Lockett to a contract, according to Kings General Manager Pete D'Alessandro. Terms of the contract were not disclosed.
The second workout will include six players: Miami guard Durand Scott (6-5, 203), Kansas guard Elijah Johnson (6-4, 195), Evansville guard/forward Colt Ryan (6-5, 200), Syracuse guard James Southerland (6-8, 210), Kentucky guard Archie Goodwin (6-4, 198) and Princeton forward Trent Lockett (6-7, 225).
Darren Wolfson: Local good guy Trent Lockett update: working out for the Bulls & Bucks this week. Was also at the ASM workout in Vegas on Fri. for 26 teams.

|This show seems kinda confusing right now but I think it has potential. I hope they reveal the backgrounds of some of the characters soon, especially the more prominent ones like Akashi.

It does have potential. It has one of the better and more cohesive starter episodes than most of the other Spring 2014 anime series that have already premiered.
Black Bullet started out kind of not so impressive and so did No Game No Life a tad.
This has this mystery that makes you want to know more. Also the mechs... I don't think it is going to be them as the centerpiece it is kind of going to be the characters being the center focus and the mechs are just going to be extensions of themselves or tools like in Code Geass or say Guilty Crown. In Valvrave the Liberator the mecha robots were kind of the centerpiece. Not here I get the feeling.

I'm liking what I've seen so far The mystery (who the heck is that singing girl anyway?) works well in enticing me to watch the next episode.
And boy, the Admonitions' moanings are creepy.
Lastly... where are we supposed to discuss each episode? Here, or in the Anime discussion forum?

|Yeah, that was a pretty good first episode, I'm successfully drawn into the mystery and learning more.

Not sure I can quite agree. Of all the shows you mentioned, Guilty Crown had the smallest amount of robot focus, because the protagonist simply didn't pilot one and those who did weren't important characters in any case, but that doesn't necessarily mean this will be like that. It's too early to tell.
But more generally speaking....robots aren't the center of attention even in a lot of mecha series, actually. Patlabor spends more time with the character interactions than with the Labors themselves, despite their iconic nature, although at least there they're regularly present as a background element even when not being used.

That is what I said. In Guilty Crown and Code Geass both series did not have mecha robots as the center of attention. Guilty Crown had the least focus because they hardly even went into details on them. I have not seen Patlabor but have heard of it so do not know anything beyond it. Valvrave the Liberator though did have the mecha robots as the main focus so much so they were thinking beings or at least one or two of them. I only said I get the feeling that it probably wont be focused on mecha robots themselves but the character interactions. Most mecha anime series have noticed do not focus on the mecha robots like you mentioned,nightjuan. Except Valvrave the Liberator which is a 2013 anime series which absolutely loved for that reason.
It is just a feeling and so it is not concrete after all your right it is only the first episode. I was just airing my first impressions

So this item is a "Column" with absolutely no text, as opposed to, say, a "News" or "Interest" (or amusing "Advertorial" I've recently seen) item with just "Here are the links."
So, yeah, I'm not a site editor, but the choice seems ... odd.

|I really like how ANN is posting each episode of M3 as Daisuki publishes them on YouTube. I really like Daisuki's service but since they do not have as many simulcasts, as much news content, lack Crunchyroll's ingenious publishing count down widget, and lack a dedicated Roku channel (though I can now use my Roku thanks to them simulcasting through YouTube) it is much easier for me to keep up with the series having it posted to a site I frequent several times a day. So please continue to do this.

Been enjoying this one, even though I feel like it's going to a dark place.
I was liking where they seemed to be going with Emiru. It looked a bit like the "loser come good" story. Instead, they've gone down the "loser cops worse ****" path with her. I don't think that many would find her a sympathetic character, but I kind of do.
Have yet to see this latest episode, but I'm finding this series to be pretty interesting.
Still needs to flesh out some of the characters, as I feel like they've only really touched on Akashi and Emiru. I'd only guess and say I think the other characters won't have pleasant pasts either...

I take it things like Mushishi, Ping Pong, and Sidonia aren't up your street? ...
Yeah, if they wanted a much darker and more harrowing title they definitely should have gone for "M25"...

Hardly; the average rating for this show (runs since April) is "Decent", which in my practice most of the time translates to atrocious and unwatchable.
