For some reason I started thinking about how lame the fight scene was in “Prince of Space” or how wonderfully terrible the wrestling was in “Racket Girls”, not to forget the limp-wrist punch that Cal Meachum gives Exidor in “This Island Earth”. It seems there are so many fight scenes from almost all of the MSTed movies that need to be picked on a bit more than they have.
What immediately comes to mind is the “good-natured brawling” in “Hercules and the Captive Women.” Sheesh.
What’s your pick?
