Schlock-Wire: Shout! Factory Unleashes 2 More MST3K Titles In March

Shout! Factory’s line of MST3K DVD’s is too big to be con­tained by their peri­odic box set releases.  They’ve also opened a nice side­line of single-disc releases that are only avail­able directly from Shout! Factory via their web­site.  On March 20th, MST3K addicts will be able to pick up new discs for a pair of More >

Schlock-Wire: MST3K VOL. XXIII Coming From Shout! Factory In March

It looks like Shout! Factory will be con­tin­u­ing the trend of extras-laden boxes of Mystery Science Theater 3000 episodes in 2012: sched­uled for March is the release of MST3K Vol. XXIII.  Like past boxes, this set will con­tain four episodes, the novel hook here being that none of these episodes have ever had a DVD More >

Digi-Schlock: MST3K VOL. 22 (Shout! Factory 4-DVD Set)

Between their Gamera–themed box set and their 2-disc Manos: The Hands Of Fate set, Shout Factory has done well by Mystery Science Theater 3000 fans this year.  As the Christmas sea­son approaches, they’ve dropped one last jumbo set for the year to sati­ate the MST3K fan­base.  MST3K Vol. 22 is another solid entry in this More >

MST3K VOL. 22: A Brute, Some Jailbait & The Revenge Of Sandy Frank

It has been a pretty good year for MST3K fans, what with Shout! Factory rolling out a series of DVD reis­sues of clas­sic episodes (espe­cially the great MST3K Vs. Gamera box).  They’ve closed out their year of MST3K activ­ity with Volume 22 of the series, a fun release that cov­ers a nice range of bad-film More >

Digi-Schlock: MST3K: MANOS: THE HANDS OF FATE (Shout! Factory 2-DVD Set)

Shout! Factory has done com­mend­able work with their line of Mystery Science Theater 3000 discs since they took over this fran­chise from Rhino.  Whether the release is a multi-disc set or just a sin­gle title, they’ve put admirable effort into what could have been sim­ple cat­a­log releases by putting seri­ous work into the pack­ag­ing and More >

MST3K: MANOS — THE HANDS OF FATE: How To Survive A Bad Movie

The often over­looked part of Mystery Science Theater 3000’s appeal is that the show can teach you the skills you need to watch the unwatch­able.  Though the group could enhance the joys of films like the Gamera series, those films didn’t need much help to be enter­tain­ing in a weird way.  The crew at the More >

Digi-Schlock: MST3K VS. GAMERA (Shout! Factory 5-DVD Box)

Shout! Factory has done well by fans since they picked up the Mystery Science Theater 3000 cat­a­log, pick­ing up where Rhino left off via both box sets and stand-alone discs.  However, they’ve really done vet­eran fans a favor by col­lect­ing the long out-of-circulation Gamera episodes in one handy box.  They’ve also added in a few More >

MST3K VS. GAMERA: A Wisecracking Don Quixote Finds His Atomic Windmill

A satirist is only as good as the mate­r­ial they are sat­i­riz­ing.  The object of humor­ous scorn has to inspire obses­sion, an intense need to ridicule and a bizarre sense of affec­tion in the satirist — all at the same time.  If the satirist can find this kind of tar­get, they can truly make magic.  More >
