Mike Nelson, Bill Corbett, and Kevin Murphy (the latter dressed as Alex Jansen) began by riffing "The Magic Shop," a short feature based on a story by H.G. Wells. Next came a preview of their next Rifftrax Live feature, Krull. And from there, it was on to Space Mutiny!
For better or worse, seeing extra scenes of Space Mutiny doesn't improve that movie in the slightest. However, that just gave the three hosts even more material to make fun of. There are lots of new nicknames for the muscular, dim hero Dave Ryder. (Max Roidrage! Bacon von Meatwich!) There's the heroine who seems as old as her father, the dead character who shows up alive back at her post, and the scenery-chewing villain Calgon. There also the "spaceship" full of brick walls and pipes, footage shamelessly taken from Battlestar Galactica, and lots of propane tanks lying around. None of it is spared by the comedy trio.
