Mystery Science Theater 3000 Season 6 Episode 14

Ep 14. Kitten with a Whip

  • November 23, 1994

In the Mystery Science Theater 3000 season 6 episode 14, Joel and the bots take on the 1964 film, Kitten with a Whip. Starring Ann-Margret as Jody, a wayward teen who breaks into the house of a politician played by John Forsythe, the movie is a classic example of mid-60s drive-in fare.

Jody is on the run from her troubled past and seeks refuge at the politician's house, only to quickly reveal her true manipulative and violent nature. With her seductive ways, she toys with the politician and his family until they are forced to take drastic measures to protect themselves.

As Joel and the bots watch in disbelief, they riff on the film's melodramatic plot and over-the-top performances. From Jody's outrageous wardrobe changes to the politician's stiff-upper-lip persona, the movie offers plenty of fodder for the MST3K crew to skewer.

But it's not just the film's content that gets roasted - Joel and the bots also take aim at the film's technical shortcomings. From the shaky camera work to the random close-up shots, every aspect of Kitten with a Whip is fair game for riffing.

As the movie reaches its climax, Joel and the bots ramp up their commentary, joking about the film's crazy twists and turns and offering their own hilarious take on the ending. And as the credits roll, Joel and the bots bid farewell to the audience with a final burst of humor that leaves everyone laughing.

Fans of Mystery Science Theater 3000 will love this episode for its hilarious commentary and sharp wit. With plenty of quips and one-liners, Kitten with a Whip is a classic MST3K episode that offers plenty of laughs and entertainment.
