Weekend Discussion Thread: Your Embarrassing Crush on a MSTed Movie Actor

Alert reader Amy has a great one:

Just a few days ago, I was minding my own business watching Overdrawn at the Memory Bank when the scene came on with Apollonia reprimanding Fingal for spending – what, several days? – “making love” with Felicia. Raul Julia turns on the smolder in that scene, and suddenly I found myself sitting up and thinking, “Why, HELLO, Mr. Julia. How YOU doin’?” I was sort of both amused and disgusted with myself. I mean, it IS a young Raul Julia we’re talking about here, but, on the other hand, it’s Raul Julia in Overdrawn at the Memory Bank, so…

So my question is, what’s your most embarrassing crush on an actor/actress in an MST movie? I feel like Raul Julia isn’t TOO embarrassing, actually, so I’ll also submit the floppy-haired indeterminately European Paul from “Werewolf.” I should know better, I really should, but the heart (or whatever it is) wants what the heart wants.

No question: Mary Beth Hughes, especially in “Last of the Wild Horses.” She can saddle me up anytime.

How about you? Oh, and keep it PG-13, okay?

    Dunja Movar, babbling incoherently and handing out weeds as Ophelia in HAMLET. She was mad hot.

    The first embarrassing crush that comes to mind for me is definitely Peaches from Racket Girls. Whenever I watch that episode, like whichever of the bots says this line during the riffing, “I am being turned on by a woman who is long dead.”

  7. Yeah, Kyle from Hobgoblins. Partially because he looks like a boy who broke my heart in high school.

    Also, I can’t possibly be the only one who thinks Mike Nelson is smokin’ hot as Morrissey.

    As for embarrassing crushes, I’m going with Miss Absolutely Fascinating from Werewolf.

    Non-embarrassing crushes include: Beverly Garland, Allison Hayes, Mamie Van Doren, Elinor Donahue, Jean Moorhead (Paula from Violent Years), Joyce Meadows (Carrie Anderson from Girl From Lovers Lane), Molly McCart (Teri from Teenage Crimewave), the wife of the smug Reviewer guy from Merlin’s Shop of Mystical Wonders, and the plucky reporter gal from The Corpse Vanishes.

    I’m terribly late on this, so I might as well confess; chances are not many people will read this: William Sylvester.

    And this is not necessarily embarrassing, but the first time I saw Mike as host, in “The Brain that Wouldn’t Die”? Say….who’s the new guy??

    I don’t think anyone mentioned Roger from Squirm (before he gets attacked by worms of course). Creepy, yes, but I just love inbred hick-types. And I love the way he says Suu-prise.

    It’s a toss-up between Joy Harmon, and Gail Gerber in “Village of the Giants.” I still hope that Gail didn’t quite get my crush on her when I met her 5 years ago…even if she was about 40+ years older than me…

    …yes, it was one of those ‘Sheila in her underwear’ moments.

    Not quite “MST3k,” but I found the female calendar teacher from “The Calendar: How to Use It” rather hot in a “crazy-eyes” kind of way.
