I love ABK, but this was fairly weak as far as representing “all American 1950s Sci-Fi movies” – it pretty much 100% parodied Forbidden Planet and no other movie.
I think his take on haunted house movies hit harder, personally.

Not only is this better, but Insalubrious is a GREAT name for a horror film.

I particularly enjoy the attention to detail he put into his late-80’s-style theme song and opening titles.
