CALLING ALL AMATEUR EGYPTOLOGISTS! WE HAVE A MUMMY ON THE LOOSE! It’s an “About Time” Mods Choice Watch Party featuring Being From Another Planet! TONIGHT March 15 8pm EDT

Get your Ben Murphy selves over to the forum tonight for our next instalment in the “About Time” Mod’s Choice Watch party. Tonight, we take on Being from Another Planet (Ooooo), or as it was known to the rest of the world, Time Walker.

Will Ben Murphy find out the truth about his mummy in time? Will the mummy find its stolen crystals? Will FilmVentures ever not mangle the opening credits for one of their films? Tune in tonight to find out!

In the theater, the crew watches as an alien mummy awakens from suspended animation and terrorizes the campus in “Being From Another Planet” (1982). Meanwhile, on the SOL, the bots try to scare Joel with their Haunted Boiler Room.

This episode is available for everyone at the Gizmoplex:

Or hit play on your personal copy at 8pm Eastern.

If you miss the beginning of the watch party, just skip ahead in the film to the appropriate time. (Joining us at 8:30pm Eastern? Skip ahead to the thirty-minute mark in the film.)

You don’t want to miss this one! (You might end up trapped forever in the Haunted Boiler Room!)

since the other thread is temporarily locked I have to reply to @TheHippy here

Little known trivia, this was also released under the title Being From Another Planet: How to Spoil the Surprise Ending of Your Own Movie .

See also: The Third Man (written by Graham Greene, but not that Graham Greene). A classic, my a$$.

“This is the worst movie ever made!”
Tempting fate there considering some of the films that came later in the season.

That’s actually one of the things that fascinates me about this episode.

That, for a very brief period, what did MST3K consider The Worst Movie Ever? Being From Another Planet!

Getting, uh, fired up for this one. This one’s not…it doesn’t…it isn’t so…like…good. It sucks. The movie, I mean. The riffing is, well, Season 4, which is probably the reason this movie feels only four hours long instead of twelve. Your slog may vary.
