Movie Summary
An annoying, dorky kid in a red sweater named Troy is being chased by some guys in black sock hoods. He jumps into the truck of Rowsdower, a creepy guy with hockey hair, who puts Troy's sins aside and helps him. It turns out that the guys chasing them across Canada are part of a cult who killed Troy's father 7 years earlier. They are chasing the Troy for this map to a city his father made. Rowsdower was actually a member of the cult, and then Troy kills the cult's leader, which frees all the members, including Rowsdower. They find the city, which takes off, looking like Darth Vader in the sky.

Stinger: Troy says "Rowsdower?"
My Thoughts
Argh...what a bad, bad, bad movie! Canadians are a messed up culture if they think that this is entertainment. Did they think this was a good movie? How completely deluded are they? (A sincere apology to any Canadians who might be reading this...I don't mean you.)
A sad postlude to that paragraph: I tried to convert one of my friends to MST, and I showed her this ep. She ended up watching the movie, as many do, and she LIKED IT!! I almost died.
This is many many people's favorite ep, and it is a wonderful ep, I must agree. "I wonder if there's beer on the sun..."
