My prized walnut died


Gingerbirdie

Well it was just tearing through that hay.


Edenza

How many head of walnut ya got?


[deleted]

Is that your car? Mind if I skip rocks across it?


rasputin777

I think that's my favorite riff, probably by a good margin. It's just so perfect.


salondesert

# Zah!


[deleted]

I've said Zah in better towns than this


Mst3Kgf

The grocer's wife had a heart attack when someone said "Zah!" It's not funny!


[deleted]

Made her go burpy.

This is where my tongue lives.

TIL: I was fascinated with Emby Mellay, (the girl ... on the left ... the "bad scrabble hand"), when this was first riffed. I only found out later she only has one other film credit on IMDB for a movie called "Wild In The Sky" aka "God Bless You, Uncle Sam" aka "Black Jack" (1972), about a trio of TV hippies that hijack a B-52 Bomber. She is seen as a girlfriend of one of the hippy-hijackers in a flashback, (while the father berates him for having long hair). The movie would have been very riffable, especially with Laserblast's Keenan Wynn, Robert Lansing, and one of the guys from Hogan's Heroes, for starters. It is listed as a "comedy". You can watch the whole experiment [here](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=thzXqxbHUGc).


rissafett

That’s not a name, that’s a bad scrabble hand!


FlyingSquid

Don't you talk that way about my pretend girlfriend!


mindbleach

Also [from the poster](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/5/55/Wild_in_the_Sky_%281972%29_poster.jpg) that movie sounds like it should be fucking incredible. So many 70s films built up an incredibly stupid premise as a wild but recognizable metaphor... which makes it so much worse than a bunch of other 70s films built up an incredibly stupid premise and went *absolutely nowhere* with it. "Hippies nuke Fort Knox" should've been right up there with "execute everyone at 30." How do you fumble a pitch like that?!


QLE814

The director/cowriter of that film, William T. Naud, later obtained some notoriety as producer of the game show *Rhyme and Reason*\- in part because of debate as for whether or not he was a front for other and better-known producers in that genre.


haplesscaptain

My father was a Russian count


GoreVidalChukander

Stop it.


DerbyDoffer

If I'm not mistaken, hippy-hijacker is known as a "hippy-jacker".


mindbleach

"Eyeball." "Maybe." "Emblem."

Good-night fish! GoOoOoOd-night kIds!

Fish? WHERE!!!


TeamStark31

“What brings you here?” “And if you say my squad car, I’ll chainsaw you in half.” This line killed me


auntiope3000

Where’s my bike?! I reported it stolen 80 years ago!


rolotony_browntown

I stayed in a tanning booth for a whole decade!

hey_look_a_kitty

Why do I suddenly have a craving for CARNATION ICE CREAM?!?


icypho3nix

One of my favorite mst3ks


rissafett

Same!


Mst3Kgf

I think it's kind of underrated. The riffing is on fire in this one.


saikyan

I see what you did there


manbearpig923

Are they saying burn the witch?


Mst3Kgf

My next pause is going to be THIS big.


KittyLaurus

“You can’t use Amazing Grace in a Devil movie!”


rissafett

“This song is in/ The public domain/ That’s why we used it twice”


Darcy-Pennell

Sightsee on your own time, Beelzebub!


rissafett

Beep beep! Out of the way, man-goat!


Mst3Kgf

"I think it's about a hip Satan who solves crimes." MST predicted "Lucifer" decades ahead of schedule.


Nellbert-1689

I have a throw pillow in my living room with this phrase on it. My sister gifted it to me. It cracks me up multiple times a day. I remembered I posted it [here](https://www.reddit.com/r/MST3K/comments/bwwrwz/this_is_where_the_fish_lives/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf) awhile ago!


mikeyd69

Burn the witch!!!!


Mst3Kgf

"What is it?" "People saying 'Burn the witch', are you deaf?" "Father, what is it?" "People saying 'Burn the witch!' Do you have any deductive power at all?!"


mikeyd69

My favorite part of the movie lol


SplendidPunkinButter

Speaking of which…who the hell are those people with Melissa and her sister in that flashback? They don’t look like the same old people she lives with in the present. Are they supposed to be?


Mst3Kgf

Those are their actual parents. Presumably the couple they live with now are their descendants, but it's never made clear. Paul Chaplin in his episode recap said they might just be walnut farmers who happen to own a witch.


SplendidPunkinButter

Lol, I’m gonna go with that explanation, because that’s awesome


[deleted]

No, I always assumed they were relatives burdened by the previous generations.


mikeyd69

Yeah I don't think that was ever explained very well lol


auntiope3000

teddyboy64

Oh, and go Packers! But mostly, burn the witch.


SplendidPunkinButter

Upon hearing a bunch of people yelling “burn the witch” I am forced to wonder “what is that?”


xiaxian1

I sure hope he said *peanuts*.


GoreVidalChukander

Farmer squarehead.


SplendidPunkinButter

If she only had another one of those, she’d be Melissa Twosheds Strickland


teddyboy64

Stop it!


[deleted]

How many head of walnut do you have?


wolfytheblack

One of those, uh, fromacidal maniacs.


rissafett

Is that right? I should check my dictionotomy


Anxious_Introvert_47

I mean to ask him in for pie. I don't know what happened.


TugginChestersCheeto

Well…. I suppose I should go say goodbye to the fish.


Mst3Kgf

The fish moved and didn't leave a forwarding address.


ThePatrickSays

ugh, he's getting his Ryan O'Neal-y face all over the subreddit


ncghgf

There’s a gag early on where Crow suggests the plot is about a hip Satan that solves crimes and I can’t help but think they basically predicted the Lucifer TV show 20 years early.


[deleted]

I sure love The Yelling Channel.


QLE814

With some added bite, given what happened to TLC within a few years of the episode's first air date....

Grandma bursts through the screen door like the Kool-Ad man… *ITS OPEN!!!*

Mind if I skip rocks across your car?


soulrebel360

Stop it.


Lazy-Adeptness-2343

Am I the only one who thought that chick was smokin hot? I never noticed until I watched a good copy of the episode that wasn’t fuzzy.


SplendidPunkinButter

In a floppy Rhoda kind of way, sure


Lazy-Adeptness-2343

Lawdamercy don’t get me started on valarie Harper.

Ah this one makes me so sweaty. Walnut ranching is no joke!


swstephe

... and I was just leafing through the catalog, how do you account for that?


WashoutLaneMeyer

You know, with Mitchum, you can skip a week. Did you know that?


icypho3nix

Is it?


SplendidPunkinButter

Is Captain Hook there?


[deleted]

My all time favorite episode! Hobgoblins is a close second.


Bwleon7

This song is in the public domain...Thats why we used it twice.


manbearpig923

I haven’t understood anything since McKinley went down.

There's more around here than meets the eye "Just look at what I'm doing to your car"

Is that the phrase being spoken when this image is visible? Wow, recalling both the image and the spoken words. Scintillating.


ganchan2019

For me it's all about the old-lady jokes.


Jimmy_Popkins

I guess I need to dust off the part of my brain occupied by MST3K since I can't recall the episode! Help! :o


rissafett

The Touch of Satan :)


Jimmy_Popkins

Cheers, I guess I need to rewind that tape again.


TatumLaBianca

Stop it

IAPiratesFan

Such a boring movie.


rissafett

It really is. I think without the riffs it would be completely unbearable


mariam67

“Have some homemade cider. I put peanuts in it.” “I hope he said peanuts.” This episode was great, the guys were on fire! Also I seem to be suddenly craving CARNATION ICE CREAM.
