  This is genuinely one of the most fascinating movies ever done on MST3K. For the longest time, this Soviet film was only available in the chopped and poor picture quality from Roger Corman. It did make its way in the original cut to Japan though, where the serpent design was a direct inspiration for King Ghidorah!

  This classic 1950s Russian fantasy tale (Ilya Muromets) was reedited by Roger Corman around 1961 for the US market making it the MST3K fodder we see here.

  &quot;And wherever Ilya went, he carried his pool-cue!&quot;<br><br>Hands-down my second all-time favorite MST3K episode... #1 is that Bert I. Gordon classic &quot;The Magic Sword.&quot;

  “Because a strong man who’s known power all his life may lose respect for that power. But a weak man knows the value of strength and also knows compassion.”

  Underrated episode. One of my favorites, and the movie isn&apos;t bad even after Roger Corman got through with it
