Movie Summary


 Movie: Colossus And The Headhunters: 

Oh, God, yes—another Italian interpretation of—something, including island natives running around in loincloths of suspiciously 1960s upholstery fabric. Our manly man hero Colossus, in his own Hercules spinoff series, leads a group of people to a new land after their island is destroyed by a volcano. They land on an island, where they are captured by a clan who needs Colossus to save them from their neighbors, a tribe of headhunters. Even though he doesn't really do anything save for upending a water tower, Colossus manages to save the village from the headhunters and gets a lovely princess as a parting gift.

Host Segments


 Prologue: 

Servo does Crow and Mike's income taxes, and Crow owes $37,000 in back taxes even though he only made $12.00.

 Segment 1: 

Forrester and Frank design the world's cutest pet, Nummy Muffin CoocolButter. It's furry and pink and irresistibly adorable, and makes one so placid that Dr. Forrester will be able to rule the world.

 Segment 2: 

Mike coddles Nummy Muffin but in Deep 13 Frank misses Nummy Muffin terribly so he sings—sort of—a paean to Nummy titled: "Nummy Muffin CoocolButter."

 Segment 3: 

There's pink fur everywhere; the 'Bots grow weary of Nummy Muffin; and Gypsy is allergic to him.

 Segment 4: 

Nummy Muffin falls ill for missing Frank, and Frank falls ill missing Nummy—it's really pathetic. Mike decides to send Nummy Muffin back to Frank.

 Segment 5: 

Mike, Crow, and Tom discuss decapitation, and the 'Bots are prepared to test their theory that Mike would be able to think and see for a moment after his head is cut off. In Deep 13, the Mads fuss over Nummy Muffin.

 Stinger: 

An emotive death by arrow.


Reflections

This movie is for the ladies, what with Colossus walking around shirtless and in a little skirt.

— Mary Jo Pehl

A lot of people wrote us complaining that Dr. Forrester wasn't evil enough at the end of this show. That perhaps he should have crushed sweet little Nummy Muffin with a hammer, or lit him on fire or flushed him down the toilet or some other despicable thing. Well, I am certainly open to criticism, always have been, and I am ever appreciative of a pertinent intelligent comment regarding tone, character, story line, whatever is salient. In the spirit of gentle rebuttal, I respectfully submit that Forrester's goal of making the cutest, most irresistible stuffed toy in the world worked so well, that it backfired and sucked Forrester into his own evil plan, you shortsighted toads! What do you think, we just sit around here with our thumbs up our kazoos and blow bubbles and wait till the last nanosecond to stitch together a lame story line? You insensitive asses! You swine you...

Okay. I took a breath, started a new paragraph, and though I am not completely sorry for what I said, I regret if any innocent people were hurt by it. Thank you for your patience; now, on with the rest...
