MST3K 806: The Undead

Once more in "tidying-up mode" so far as picking Mystery Science Theater 3000 episodes to rewatch goes, I've entered the eighth season and moved on to "The Undead." ("I saw the Undead at Unalpine Unvalley.") As with "The She-Creature," just two episodes away in the official order, the movie could be seen as an attempt to cash in on the "past life regression" fad of the mid-1950s. In this case, though, the "past life regression" doesn't call forth a bizarre monster through the agency of a dapper yet oily carnival hypnotist, but instead involves a trip back to a strange take on the Middle Ages...
