Film shown: ''Film/TheDeadTalkBack''
''Film/TheDeadTalkBack''. An odd case of being one of the "newest" films riffed by the show. While it was shot in 1957, it was never released until 1993, a year before the episode aired.

* OverlyLongGag: Crow's Jerry Garcia solo. It's so overly long in fact, that the camera goes through the tunnel leading to the theater ''backwards'' so Mike can grab Crow.

* MisappliedPhlebotinum: The entire joke of the radio show skit. Crow and Servo manage to get Krasker's afterlife two-way radio working, and immediately use it for a sports talk radio show. Mike spends the entire sketch flabbergasted as UsefulNotes/AbrahamLincoln and WinstonChurchill call in from beyond the grave, and not even ''they're'' interested in anything besides who'll win the Super Bowl that year.
