For years, Shout! Factory has released to audiences twenty-six volumes of episodes from the hit cult comedy/sci-fi series, Mystery Science Theater 3000 (otherwise known by fans as MST3K). This summer, fans will see a twenty-seventh volume hit store shelves and online outlets. And this fall, fans get even more of a treat when Mystery Science Theater 3000: The Movie will be re-issued by Shout! Factory on a Blu-ray/DVD combo pack.
Mystery Science Theater 3000: The Movie originally debuted in theaters in 1996. The movie was centered on the 1955 sci-fi classic, This Island Earth. Now fans of the cult favorite show and its subsequent movie will get to add this modern classic to their libraries when the movie is re-issued on Tuesday, September 3rd. This time out, it’s not just Mike, Crow, and Tom Servo that could be subjected to the best of the worst of Hollywood’s sci-fi flicks. The evil scientist Dr. Clayton Forrester explains in the movie’s opening that he plans to torture the people of the whole planet to the movies that for years Mike and company have had to endure. Who can stop them? Leave it to Mike, Crow and Tom Servo….perhaps.
