Mystery Science Theater 3000: THE MOLE PEOPLE Season 8, Ep 3
"TERRIFYING Monsters From A Lost Age!" Archeologists discover an ancient subterrainian civilization beneath a volcano and, using the awesome power of their mighty FLASHLIGHT, free the titular mole people from their oppression.

There's a lot of MST veterans in this movie, particularly John Agar and Hugh Beaumont.

YouTube (Official, with annotations! 1h32m) Premiered February 15, 1997. [more inside]
