MYSTERY SCIENCE THEATER 3000: VOLUME XXV (DVD)

“MST3K” Volume 25 serves up four more episodes in this classic series, including “Revenge of the Creature,” the first one that aired after the switch to Sci-Fi Channel (it also featured Pearl Forrester’s introduction as the new mad scientist). The bonus features are on the lean side, but, as always, the episodes are still worth the price of admission…

MYSTERY SCIENCE THEATER 3000: HAMLET (DVD)

This episode of “Mystery Science Theater 3000″ tends to be dismissed by many fans, but it’s not a bad one. It’s just that “Hamlet” seems to come from out of left field in a series full of Godzilla films, Roger Corman productions, ill-conceived low-budget sci-fi and horror films…

MYSTERY SCIENCE THEATER 3000: GUNSLINGER (DVD)

“Gunslinger” is a classic “MST3K” episode that skewers a 1956 Roger Corman western. The writing staff probably felt like they were shooting fish in a barrel with this one. Unfortunately, this standalone DVD from Shout! Factory is devoid of extras…
