    By Lokar, Feb 07, 2006 Report Abuse
    Absurdly bad science fiction movie about a beach party girl who falls down a hole into another dimension, or something. It's a mechanized netherworld where she must fight to rescue her father and get back to our Earth. Sorry about her dad, but I hope she loses.

    A very early episode for new host Mike Nelson, and good riffs abound.

    "There's supposed to be a brain in here..."

    Also hysterical is every attempt the above-world beach kids make to talk like normal people.

    Elsewhere, Frank tries to buy a new liver from a vending machine, and Dr. Forrester is his usual evil self.

    Brilliant. Tons of big laughs, and an auspicious beginning for our Mike. One of my favorites.
