Mystery Science Theater 3000: The Creeping Terror

Movie · Comedy · Sci-Fi

Dr. Forrester and TV's Frank do their laundry as they force Mike and company to watch The Creeping Terror (1964), a jaw-droppingly bad horror flick about a space alien that looks like a large carpet with people under it. Mike and the 'bots survive the schlock by mocking everything from the ponderous and unnecessary narrator to the pointless scene of a mother taking her baby's temperature. Meanwhile, Tom Servo pretends to be a security guard impeding Mike Nelson's way around the Satellite of Love. Crow makes a flag for the ship. Gypsy suggests a parody of a TV series. Mike plays 'Creeping Terror' music on his makeshift stereo system. Tom Servo willingly finds out what it's like to get swallowed.
