A Mesc Original - Making The Impossible Possible Get new release alerts and connect: https://MescOriginals.com/ Note: This release only contains 2.0 Movie + Rifftrax commentary. Rifftrax Synopsis: "I've forgotten why I was in it. I probably needed the money. It was a very bad time for me. I hope they burn it." - William Shatner on Impulse Luckily for us, they didn’t burn it, and now we can riff it! One of the most infamous entries in Shatner’s packed-with-infamy career, Impulse has the good Captain play a serial-killing conman who seduces women in the most repulsive 1970's style. And we do mean “repulsive 1970's style.” Tank tops and bellbottoms, patterned shirt collars wider than the Pacific Ocean, Shatner wears it all. And somehow, against all odds, every woman he meets falls for it. Including a single mom whose young daughter is the only one in the movie who can see this guy is bad, like obviously bad, like so bad he leaves stains on the ugly brown 1970's sofa bad. It’s a little upsetting watching him sleep his way through belly dancers, hotel clerks, and cigarette-y older ladies, but it’s all worth it when we meet the real star of the show: Karate Pete. Played by Harold Sakata, aka Oddjob from the world of James Bond, Karate Pete is always smoking a pipe, drives an RV with a banner that says “Karate Pete,” and never ever does any karate. He’s a true delight - and he was apparently almost killed during a stunt with Shatner! We won’t spoil what happens in that incredible scene, but suffice to say there’s an alternate timeline where William Shatner killed Oddjob during the making of the movie Impulse. Just something to think about. Boldly go with Mike, Kevin and Bill to the pits of 70s sleaze with the sleaziest version of Shatner who ever sleazed, it’s time for Impulse! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- All stills were taken from an 8K HDR screen.
