Girl In Gold Boots

Great episode from the Sci-Fi era. The movie features a dancer who can’t dance and a singer who can’t sing, Mike and the bots can riff though, and they tear this turkey to shreds.

1968 (not 2014!) crime/drama about L.A. night club & drug scene. Mostly go-go dancing, G-rated. The lead go-go dancer was previously reviewed as a "spectacularly untalented actress. A terrible actress she might be, but luckily for her the other members of the cast are much much worse." That pretty well sums it up. Great for a short seminar on a History of B Movies, 1960-1970. Otherwise, why bother?

Mystery Science Theater 3000 is something new to me. But it is fun. It is a movie, a bad one with a couple of guys riffing it. If you do not know what that is, well you know how when you watch a bad movie with your friends and you make fun of it through out the movie... well there you go. That is what a riff is. They say funny things about the mistakes in the movie, and bad acting and whatever else they find that is funny.

I grew up in the early seventies... I would of been 10 years old when "Girl in Gold Boots" came out. Although this movie wasn't an Oscar Winner... it happened to bring back memories of a time in my life.

This is one of Ted V. Mikels most ridiculous films ever (and that's saying something.) The film was one of the last satirized on MST3K, and I am grateful they took it on, though realize this is the original version. An interesting side note is observing what footage MST3K trimmed to make it fit their time requirements.The plot concerns a girl, Michele Casey, with dreams of being a dancer who works in a roadside cafe with her abusive father, and who crosses paths with two men, the execrably adorable Finley Jones, who goes by the moniker "Critter," and Buz Nichols, a small time hood who is clearly not good for Michele to be around.Eventually they all wind up in Los Angeles at a ridiculous go-go joint complete with wretched band and fire breathing dragon motif, where Michele (of course) becomes the lead dancer because of her huge talent. Also in the talent department, Critter is an amateur singer-songwriter who pleasures us with a few tunes, leading to the question: who is worse at their chosen art form, Michele or Critter? I vote for Michele, but it's a close race. Along the way there are subplots about desertion from the Army, go-cart racing, and the obligatory brawl between Critter and Buz. One guess as to who ends up with Michele.There are many holes in the plot, and even more continuity gaffes, but this is not a film for serious contemplation at any rate. The film is more enjoyable with the MST3K treatment, but it is still a gem for bad movie buffs in its original state.Don't miss the commentary by Ted V. Mikels. I am fairly sure that most viewers will find reason to disagree with him on certain points. One thing is for sure, though: as I write this "Girl in Gold Boots" is number 81 on the Internet Movie Database list of the 100 worst films of all time. There is a reason for that, and it is a very compelling one. See for yourself.

Older movie, what you might think of in a 60s B movie

This movie will forever be considered a cinematic masterpiece. It spawned a very successful franchise which still runs to this day. I couldn't regard this movie any higher than I do right now. This IS the missing piece of your collection.

total waste of time.
