Chaos in Motion (2008) Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)I bought Dream Theater's Chaos in Motion off another website and for some reason they shipped it early and I got it today. Here is what I think about it.I have every Dream Theater DVD to date, but this one lacks the quality of Live at Budokan or Score. I didn't know that this was going to be raw footage...

Swing Choir.Yes, it's another trip into cinema's nether regions with the folks from MYSTERY SCIENCE THEATER 3000, and this time they have a doozy on their hands.To explain...

RiffTrax: Plan 9 From Outer Space - from the stars of Mystery Science Theater 3000 (2009) Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)If you like MST3K, then you'll love this. Having rediscovered these over the past year, I've filled my library with these and other MST3K alumni material (new and old). The kids like 'em, too.This is the first Rifftrax I've watched.

Talladega Nights - The Ballad of Ricky Bobby (Unrated Widescreen Edition) (2006) Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)Talladega Nights is a very, very funny movie that spoofs Nascar without actually making fun of it and its fans. In fact, this movie can actually appeal to people who don't even care for Nascar.Will Ferrel teamed back up with Adam McKay (the duo who produced/made the great Anchorman) to make this story...

Zane Grey Theatre Complete Season One Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)I remember seeing this show in syndication years ago as a child and teenager, and I had no idea Mr. Powell had had such a diverse career. Starting out as a crooner in Busby Berkeley musicals in the 1930's, evolving into a star in film noir, and then transitioning to television in a number of shows including...

Kung Fu Theater: Land of the Brave / The Great General Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)Luckily we have had much rain and I finally popped these movies in. GREAT GENERAL-the movie opens with a narrator letting you know exactly what is going to happen and the entire plot. This is not a horrible thing but the movie is.

Mystery Science Theater 3000 - Shorts Vol. 2 Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)The bad news: Tom Servo doesn't introduce the shorts so there's no transitioning from one to the next. More importantly NO "Mr. B Natural" in this collection. C'mon Rhino what are you waiting for? However, this tape's got two of the best shorts MST's done, "What to do on a Date" and "Last Clear Chance"....

Mystery Science Theater 3000: The Wild World of Batwoman (1988) Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)The MST3k guys do their usual wonderful job of taking an unwatchable movie and making it some of the best entertainment that you'll ever see. The film is absolutely ridiculous and it can't seem to figure out if it wants to be scary, serious, funny or hip. It ends up, of course, not being any of these...

Mystery Science Theater 3000 - I Accuse My Parents (1945) Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)This DVD from Rhino offers up one the funniest -- and most charming -- episodes of the legendary TV show "Mystery Science Theater 3000," where they take on a 1944 drama/gangster movie/message flick called, "I Accuse My Parents." There are few episodes of the show I recommended higher for all-around quality.For...
