The attention the episode brought to the film revealed that Reynolds was actually a very disturbed man who abused various drugs and- [[RuleOfThree well, you can probably guess by now.]]
** In addition to all that, early in the film, Joel comments, "Every frame of this film looks like someone's last known photograph." Given that Reynolds, [[AsYouKnow you guessed it]], committed suicide after filming, and other photos of him are hard to come by, one could say every frame of this film are Reynolds' last known photographs.

** During the end credits, Crow remarks, "Crew?! They had a crew?! I refuse to believe they had a crew!" is actually quite spot-on as, during the Season 13 ''Manos'' tribute livestream, Jackey Neyman Jones revealed that Hal Warren made up a lot of the names in the end credits to make it seem like more people worked on the film than really did.

* MagnumOpusDissonance: A favorite choice for people's all-time favorite episode, but none of the show's crew think that highly of it, noting that they were all thrown off their game by just how fascinatingly incompetent the film was and couldn't do their best work. This was a big part of what led Podcast/{{Rifftrax}} to later do their own version.

* FridgeBrilliance: The movie was so bad that Crow and Servo were reduced to crying wrecks. It was apparently so rough that even the Mads felt bad for sending it up to the Satellite. Considering their goal, you'd think that the Mads should have achieved victory in finding the worst movie of all time. However, their goal was to drive Joel to the DespairEventHorizon, and considering Joel refused to be bothered and had to step up more to his TeamDad role to comfort the bots, the Mads still failed in their mission.

** During one segment, where Jole and the bots are making fun of Torgo's knee disfigurement by explaining how they have various and utterly ridiculous disfigurements, Jole mentions his face is completely normal, but has no nose. Not even holes. Fast forward over a decade, and a certain Harry Potter villain can be described just like that!
