In the opening moments of pulpy 1960 horror b-movie The Leech Woman, nurse Sally (Gloria Talbot) warns endocrinologist Dr Paul Talbot (Phillip Terry) about a mysterious patient waiting to see him in reception. “She looks like she just crawled out of a mummy’s tomb,” Sally shudders. “She gives me the creeps!” “Old women always give me the creeps,” the not-very-chivalrous Talbot sneers. The woman in question is Malla (Estelle Helmsley, pictured), a wizened ancient-looking crone who claims to be 150 years old – and that the witch doctors in her remote tribal village in Africa know the secret to restoring youth. To access the elixir (a powder called naipi), Talbot must accompany her to Africa. The opportunistic and amoral Talbot agrees. But when Malla encounters Talbot’s wife June (Coleen Gray), she suddenly hisses, “You will never escape me! You are the one in my dreams of blood!” What happens next? Find out on Thursday 21 September when the FREE monthly Lobotomy Room cinema club (our motto: Bad Movies for Bad People) presents The Leech Woman in all its lurid glory!

I was gonna suggest a horror movie where rich women did murders for the pituitary glands of younger people so they could stay pretty, but then I realized we already had that, and, well

Revisiting old social media is an interesting experience. I looked at my Reddit page last night and discovered that I had once made a post detailing everything I liked about the MST3K B-movie feature The Leech Woman. Prior to seeing it, I had no memory of making this post. My first reaction was, "Wait, there were things I liked about The Leech Woman?" Because it is a truly awful movie. But skimming over the post, I may have had some good points.
Anyway, I'm ECSNorway there, if anyone else is still on Reddit.

TWST PARENTS! Leech, Draconia and Kingscholar!!
First of all, I must warn you that these designs may change in the future, either because the game presented us with the official designs, or just because I really wanted to change... Or I could reuse these designs for these characters! Given that warning...
Guys, gals, and non-binary pals. I present to you, the Leech, Draconia, and Kingscholar families!
Mr and Mrs Leech attract as much attention as their children, who at first may give off a friendly and calm image... But, they are Floyd and Jade's parents, and they are certainly hiding some things. They are an extremely passionate couple, much to the misfortune of their children (who would rather be anywhere else than witnessing their parents exchanging vows of love). Floyd and his mother have very similar personalities, of course Mrs. Leech knows how to mask her real feelings better than her son. And Jade grew up having a similar personality to his father, who knows very well how to get what he wants and who to manipulate to achieve his goals.
Lady Maleficia, certainly a mysterious and emblematic figure who rarely appears publicly these days… Maybe this has something to do with Meleanor's death? She doesn't seem to make contact with anyone other than Malleus or Lilia (with whom she has a complicated relationship) and the Briar Valley Senators.
King and Queen Kingscholar The royal family has many interesting stories, especially when it comes to the youth of the king and queen and their little adventures before they had their children, Falena and Leona Kingscholar. The king is described by many as a kind leader, but who also tends to be strict… In order to maintain peace in the kingdom. The queen has always been described as a determined and courageous woman. Before being crowned queen, she was part of the royal guard and was considered one of the most powerful warriors in the kingdom. Due to his father's illness, Falena had many responsibilities imposed on him from a very early age, and he often felt insecure and uncertain about his decisions… The good thing is that he often had his mother by his side to help and support him in difficult times. Leona has always been more attached to his mother.
WELL…. IT WAS QUITE A LOT.
And I'm still going to draw pictures of other members of the TWST families, so please bear with me a little… I'm going as fast as I can! I still have some ideas I want to explore with these characters, so maybe you'll see them more often!
I hope you like them!… And as always, share any headcanons you have, I always have fun reading them~
