MISTIERS: Joe Blevins

TITLE: "Orgy of the Dead" by Edward D. Wood, Jr.

CHARACTERS: Mike, Pearl, Bobo, Ortega

SUMMARY:
In an obvious example of the Peter Principle, Criswell has
risen to the rank of Sole Ruler of the Dark World.  His job
consists of watching strippers dance in a phony graveyard.
A rather slow-witted writer named Bob and his icy, distant
girlfriend, Shirley, are forced to watch this strange 
ritual for what seems like several weeks.  Will this "now"
couple live to see another ice cream social, or will they
be forced to pay the ultimate cover charge?

SHORTS: None
CATAGORIES: PRO

HOST SEGMENTS:
(Intro) The 'bots hold a small-town parade in Mike's honor.

(Before the movie) Mike and Tom relive "The Captain 
Kangaroo Show."  Meanwhile, Pearl and her underlings are
whisked away by a space tornado while driving home from a
supervillain convention.

(During the movie)

1. Mike reads from one of Bob's horror novels.
2. Crow invites Criswell to the SOL to sample some of his
famous Velvet Crumb Cake.  Pearl and friends are having
big, big trouble with some angry Munchkins after having
accidentally killed Glinda the Good Witch.
3. Tom, Crow, and Gypsy do some "Orgy of the Dead" role
playing.  Mike is uninterested.

(after the movie) Tom delivers a symposium about Nadejda
Dobrev, a member of the movie's cast.  Mike mysteriously
becomes Glinda the Good Witch and saves Pearl's bacon.

Stinger: Bob complements Shirley on her kissing. 

REFLECTIONS:
Let it be known that I am a fan of both Criswell and Ed
Wood.  But since they're both dead, I figure they won't
mind if I tease them a bit.  I got into this MiSTing very
innocently, and it eventually turned into a 148k monster.  
I think it's my best MiSTing yet, but it was a hell of a
lot of work, and I revised it constantly.  Enjoy!

CHRONOLOGICAL NOTES:
This takes place somewhere in Season 8, apparently soon
after "Riding With Death."
