This was the very first MST3K I ever saw, way back in the Comedy Central days. I kept putting my leg up for days and days after! Thank you, MST3K poobahs, for making this available for everyone to watch. 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
37:15 - the sheriff’s story is a real case: Tom Pittman, the young star of ‘High School Big Shot’, was killed when he ran his Porsche Spyder off the road at a sharp bend on October 31, 1958. After 19 days, Pittman was found in his car at the bottom of a 150-foot ravine, where they were out of sight from the road. (High School Big Shot was also riffed by MST3K.)
So Cyber Tracker is the blue movie, Starfighters is the refueling movie, Lost Continent is the rock-climbing movie, and this is the leg being put up on stuff movie.
I’m gunna put my leg up and watch this
😂😂😂me too
what are you wearing? im putting my leg up right now 😳
I put up both legs just to switch it up 😭
You sound like a smart fella!
This was the first MST3K I’d ever seen. My uncle taped it, and let 13 year old me borrow it, and I was blown away. R.I.P., Uncle Chris…
The best part of this is Joel doing the voice of the titular gila monster.
For sure but I do enjoy hearing Mike's voice coming from the radio Joel made.
If this is your first episode, this means nothing but it will...... :)
Pace picante sauce needs to bring back those commercials so today’s youngsters will get the NEW YORK CITY?! reference.
I swear, these old monster movies are 1% Monster and 99% Literally Anything Else

This episode is seared into my memory for some reason. Maybe it was my first as well.
Same here. Lots of good memories associated with this one. 😁
Same! First and still one of my favorites!
Sherriff: Did you notice those skidmarks?
Joel, Tom and Crow: Would you FORGET THE SKIDMARKS?!

The history of Crows "Art" for later references Pearl Forrester calls Crow "Art" all because of some kids drawing! ❤
Imagine being the person who drew that picture now! Problem completely forgot they sent them the picture.. lol
I am gonna be sooo self conscious about how often I put my leg up.
No gila monster was harmed during the making of this film.
That ain't wrong considering it's a beaded lizard
"how large the dreaded gila monster grows, none can say"
Just under 2 feet.
My nickname is "none".
Are you a nun? No. CHECKMATE! *drops mic*
Chase: "Oh hi mom. Hey don't get up. Here's some chili and water."
Mom: "Did we win the war son?"
Chase: "Oh shut up mom."
Mom: "OK."
Imho This is one of the
Top 5 Joel episodes!!
So Cyber Tracker is the blue movie, Starfighters is the refueling movie, Lost Continent is the rock-climbing movie, and this is the leg being put up on stuff movie.
And Space Mutiny is the many names of Dave Ryder movie. Blast Hardcheese!
Woah never seen this one in HD before
Ah, memories; this was the first episode I watched in its entirety. I think my favorite riff is: "He plumb crawled outta my jurisdiction."
WILL YOU FORGET THE SKID MARKS??!!!
11:12 that's roughly over 7 thousand dollars in the year 2024.
😂❤ Love you guys! 😂❤
Crow: "She stalls then kills: 'Black Widow😅
Gotta love the mom totally abandoning her daughter at the end... and we never see her again(!) 🤔🤨
She needed to go to New York City.
1:09:40 Servo's great lecture about "blocking" never gets old!
1:25:05
Nice Evil Dead reference,
In fact, Ash Williams called it 'Groovy' and he would know!
"Aw, they killed off the only likeable character!"
That was my thinking, too.
"I'm your boyfriend now! Ladl ladl ladl"
Classique
Once he's got the Jars in the car, we should call it 'Riding with Death' EP 1
'The Gila Menace'
is this why Sim City had a giant gila monster?
No. It's because they didn't want to license Godzilla. They could've gotten Gamera pretty cheap, I bet.
MST3K x KGLW fans rise up
let me also get my leg up
I keep hearing Robert Stack's voice.
The bottle of A1 steak sauce lol
Joel's Gila Voice! 😆
Gilbert Gila Monster Gottfried
I'll sing whenever I sing whenever I sing whenever I sing whenever I...
That has lived rent free in my head since I first saw it in my teens 😭
17:35
My girlfriend is from Frederic and never once encountered a Gila Monster. Totally ruined my immersion.
That’s real nice but it doesn’t help my legs 😂
What about the skidmarks?
1:20:41
Even the extras couldn't hold back their laughter...
Skid marks! 😂😂😂
Woah, what's with that weird audio drop during the end of the intro?
The tape dragged during the video transfer, presumably.
Wait son? He called me son. No wonder mom cries when i mention the sheriff
Why is the volume of the movie so low?
They had less sound in the 50s.
I'm guessing your device has a volume control.
41:08 He's cute!
did that guy just drink giant lizard urine and then kiss his girlfriend...?
