Awesome link! These will make nice covers for my extensive VHS collection. I still have every episode up until Joel was replaced by some other guy who's name escapes me at the moment.

Surprised to see The Green Slime there, is Kinji Fukasaku (Battle Royale, Tora Tora Tora) the highest profile director to be featured on MST3K?

BTW... this should be of real interest to everyone with a MythTV box who is a hardcore MST3K fan. All three of them. Because you can attach the movie poster to the video on your hard drive and have it come up when you hover over this movie's entry.

Man, that's some fine cinema. Thanks, jonson. Faced with such a plethora of goodness, one can only say, "EEGAH."

Ah, MST3K...takes me back... Thanks, jonson.

One of the hidden highlights of the site is this 1965 review of Mano the Hands of Fate, a truly, truly bad movie. Most glowing praise from the review: "For an amateur production, the color came out very well...perhaps by scrapping the soundtrack and running it with sub-titles, or dubbing in Esperanto, it could be promoted as a foreign art film of some sort or other."

Funny stuff.

I'm friends with the star of this film. I've tried to get him to watch the MST3K, but no luck.

If only they had also done Rock N Roll Nightmare.

You're friends with Adam West?!?! Holy Coincidence, Batman!!

I wish posters existed for the shorts. I would love a giant "Mr. B Natural."

Yes indeed, this site rocks. Those posters are great sources for covers and whatnot. There's also a great MST3K homemade cover site here.

(There's a cover with Mr. B.)

Otis, I love it!

This reminds me how much I miss Comedy Central's Turkey Day marathon. (Also--Father's Day with the Kids).

OMG, I've got "Mitchell" waiting in my mailbox for me tonight when I get home! Can't wait. This so rocks, and is exactly why I freakin' love the WWW so much.

So you guys are into Joe Don Baker movies too?

To clarify - I've got the MST3K of "Mitchell" waiting for me :)

Sorry. I was trying to be ironic and relive the Joel vs Mike flamewars of yesteryear. Sigh...
