What’s most shocking about the fact that it’s been 35 years since Mystery Science Theater 3000 began its run on Ktma in Minneapolis-St. Paul is the fact that it’s been only 35 years. Sporting a premise that’s gained added resonance since Covid redefined what it’s like to watch movies in isolation, the series has existed long enough—and in enough iterations—as to feel almost impervious to time, endlessly redefining itself as technology and media consumption mutate and grow, and, more frequently, as circumstances necessitate.
While the show’s hook—a human and their robots joke their way through bad movies—suggests a cynical outlook, its overriding imagination leaves room enough to enjoy both the films being watched and the jokes made at their expense. The classics that MST3K has yielded far exceed the limitations of this list’s format—to say nothing of the multitude of grace notes contained within,...

Once, she was human.
Then, she was among the demon undead.
Now, she’s returned.
And she’s the most twisted, sadistic, demonic toy ever to claw its way out of Hell...

After last years beautifully packaged 20th Anniversary edition fans could have hoped for a little more love this time around. But this is well worth the purchase. For one thing you get the next figurine in what we all hope will be a series. Last year it was Crow and this year it's Tom Servo. You also get the nice mini-posters. Last year I was completely indifferent to these, but this year I realized that they could be group mounted handsomely behind glass. For the true fan only but still a nice touch if Shout Factory! continues to provide them in future installments. A grouping of twelve would look awesome alongside other show promo.
The films themselves this time around are plenty weird all by themselves and are: The Corpse Vanishes, Warrior Of The Lost World, Santa Claus, and Night Of The Blood Beast. Of these I'll call special attention...
