I think I’ve seen The X-Files about four non-consecutive times total. So I’m going into this relatively fresh.
Also, trying to remember the handful of Doctor Strange comics I once owned. I liked the one where he and The Scarlet Witch went on a (platonic) adventure in The East Village. I’ve never been able to get over how uncomfortable that pointy hood-collar thing on the back of his head must have been, though.
So without saying it’s a Dr Who rip-off, are we saying it’s a Dr Who rip-off?
Because making a movie based on an infamously low budget TV series with dodgy special effects for an even lower budget and with even dodgier special effects has the potential to be all kinds of awesome!
I loved Doctor Mordrid as a kid, and it was my introduction to Jeffrey Combs, whom I have grown to love. I actually re-watched this movie about six months ago, before I knew it was going to be featured on MST3K. Regardless, I know there’s plenty of riffable material, and I’m here for it!
These movies are of far less interest to me than the older movies during the original run, but time marches on. I still enjoy the show (except for Robot Wars). We’ll still have a few movies coming this season that are up my alley.
