Mystery Science Theater 3000: SECRET AGENT SUPER DRAGON

May 4, 2016 4:28 PM - Season 5, Episode 4

"Beautiful Women! Silver-Masked Men! Deadly Windmills! Karate Killings! Lethal Oriental Vases!" A secret agent from America goes abroad to investigate drugged chewing gum. Oh for the days when secret agents were regularly asked to look into ridiculous things. Why not leave it for the FDA? It's the first "Eurospy" movie MST would cover, a funky little genre that grew out of the huge popularity of James Bond. General consensus is this is an above-average episode, although it doesn't have the sheer stupid-power as the upcoming 508 OPERATION DOUBLE 007. YouTube (1h32m) - Trailer. Premiered August 7, 1993.

This is one of those ones - like Time of the Apes - that no matter how many times I watch it, never makes a lick of sense to me.

There's a typo in the title of this post. It should read:
Secret agent BUH-BWAH! Super dragon BUH-BWAH!
