* EVERY FREAKING HOST SEGMENT in ''[[Recap/MysteryScienceTheater3000S08E10TheGiantSpiderInvasion The Giant Spider Invasion]]''. Even by the show's standards, Any "Invasion of the Body Snatchers" plot is what makes the episode easily, if not, the [[UnexpectedlyDarkEpisode most disturbing and nightmarish episode]] in the entire series,. The pod clones' [[{{Catchphrase}} quality]] [[CreepyMonotone attempt]] to talk like normal people while hiding any emotion [[SurprisinglyCreepyMoment and it's very horrific.]] Thankfully, Mike does get [[VillainousRescue Professor Bobo to save everyone's lives]], but at the cost of Pearl forcing the crew to watch the movie again.

* It's hard to not feel offput by the overall construction of the props and bots from [[NoBudget the KTMA era]]. Servo is the only one to not feel off, as he's basically the same as his final design, just all silver. Meanwhile, [[http://quartus.net/nbridges/bots/crow/k01.jpg Crow looks like he's dead,]][[note]]his eyes are too far apart and practically bulging out of his head]][[/note]] [[https://i1.wp.com/www.rowsdowr.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/KTMA-joel-hodgson-mst3k.jpg?fit=578%2C360&ssl=1 Gypsy looks severely menacing,]][[note]]entirely gold-painted, with angular, hole-filled scoops for her head[[/note]] and Cambot looks like a monster.[[note]][[EarlyInstallmentWeirdness Rather than being the camera itself, he's a robot operating the camera;]] with the two long bolt-like objects for eyes, and the fact he's large with no moving parts, Cambot comes off far too menacing for his own good.[[/note]] And that's not even getting into the borderline-[[Creator/RayHarryhausen Harryhausenesque]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r-Da6wh14ig Hallway Sequence]], complete with jerkily moving doors, jail bars, and an entrance [[NothingIsScarier with two unexplained flailing tentacle creatures]].

* In the "local color" sketch from ''[[Recap/MysteryScienceTheater3000S06E23TheAmazingTransparentMan The Amazing Transparent Man]]'', Mike (as the crazy "Mikey") doesn't blink for about an entire minute on camera. Over the run of the series, Mike's characterization has consistently been that of an amiable, animated midwestern doofus, so this portrayal is far more unsettling than it even sounds, and the scene is made more unnerving by Crow letting out progressively more and more distressed llama-screams.
