…three alumni from “Mystery Science Theater 3000” – Mike Nelson, Kevin Murphy (“Tom Servo”), and Bill Corbett (“Crow T. Robot”) – have rejoined forces as The Film Crew. They’ve been entrusted with a very important mission, and one that’s decidedly familiar to them: “providing commentary tracks for every movie that doesn’t have one.” As with “MST3k,” the movies in question will be pretty darned terrible, and they’ll be begin to be released through the fine folks at Shout! Factory in April 2007…but, at the moment, they’re still trying to decide which film will be first.
Head over to their site to vote for one of the following (and to see a video introduction from Murphy):
Giant of Marathon (1959, starring Steve Reeves)
Hollywood After Dark (1968, starring Rue McClanahan of “The Golden Girls”)
Killers from Space (1954, starring Peter Graves)
The Wild Women of Wongo (1958)
Gosh, they all sound so darned bad…but hearing that Rue McClahanan plays a stripper in “Hollywood AFter Dark” just might turn the tide in its favor.
