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 >

Digi-Schlock: MST3K VOL. 20 (Shout! Factory 4-DVD Set)

In the end cred­its of Mystery Science Theater 3000, there used to be a lit­tle mes­sage that said “Keep Circulating The Tapes.”  This was an acknowledgement/tacit approval of the fact that the show’s fans would often trade their own video­tape record­ings of the show to build a library of episodes.  These record­ings were often the More >
