Mystery Science Theater 3000 (MST3K) is a comedy television series that features a human host and his robot companions who are stranded in space and forced to watch cheesy B-movies. The show became a cult classic in the 1990s and was known for its witty commentary and irreverent humor. In 1996, MST3K released its own B-movie, Time Walker. The movie follows a group of archaeologists who uncover an ancient tomb in Egypt and discover a mummified alien inside. When the alien is accidentally revived, it starts wreaking havoc and seeking out a device that will allow it to travel back in time to its home planet.

Trace Beaulieu plays Dr. Forrester, the evil scientist who forces the host of MST3K, Mike Nelson (played by Michael J. Nelson), and his robot sidekicks, Gypsy and Tom Servo, to watch the movie and provide their trademark snarky commentary. Jim Mallon rounds out the cast as the voice of the robot Crow.

As the crew watches the movie, they poke fun at the cheesy special effects and ham-fisted acting. The humor ranges from pop culture references to puns to a bit of light political commentary. The jokes fly fast and furious, leaving little breathing room between laughs.

Despite its low budget and obvious flaws, Time Walker has a certain charm. The plot is ludicrous, but the movie doesn't take itself too seriously. The film is reminiscent of the sci-fi and horror movies of the 70s and 80s, with plenty of cheesy effects and awkwardly staged fight scenes.

As the movie progresses, the humor starts to overtake the plot. The crew of the Satellite of Love becomes more interested in making jokes than watching the movie, and the commentary becomes increasingly absurd. At times, it borders on the surreal.

While not as polished as some of the show's best episodes, Time Walker is still a lot of fun. The humor is irreverent and silly, and the chemistry between the cast members is strong. Fans of the show will appreciate the familiar banter and clever jokes, while newcomers may be drawn in by the low-budget charm of the movie itself.

Overall, MST3K: Time Walker is a fun and silly romp through a classic B-movie. The humor won't be for everyone, but fans of the show will be delighted by the silly commentary and irreverent humor. It may not be the best episode of MST3K, but it's still an enjoyable ride.

Mystery Science Theater 3000- Time Walker is a 1996 comedy with a runtime of 1 hour and 37 minutes. It has received mostly positive reviews from critics and viewers, who have given it an IMDb score of 7.8.
