Straggler RiffTrax Reviews

The flood of RiffTrax DVD reviews has slowed to a trickle, but here are a couple of late stragglers:
Switchplanet.com reviews “Carnival of Souls” and The DVD Lounge reviews “House on Haunted Hill.”

One other RiffTrax-related note: Amid the spate of dead celebs in the last few days, you might have missed the news about Gale Storm, star of “Swing Parade.”

Video: Joel on Cartoon Dump

Our buddy Jerry Beck has posted this video of a performance of “Cartoon Dump” last year, featuring Joel Hodgson puppeteering “Dumpster Diver Dan.” Great stuff.

Thanks to our buddy Tom for the heads up!

Weekend Discussion Thread: Your First “MST3K: The Movie” Experience

Thanks to regular poster Kenneth Morgan for this idea, which grew out of this week’s Episode Guide entry:

Tell us about your first experience of “MST3K: The Movie.”

I was living in the Philadelphia area on April 19, 1996. I took the day off from work and my buddy Geoff went to the very first showing at the one theater in town where it was showing. A large line formed behind us, and by the time the movie started the place was almost completely full. The crowd loved it, laughing uproariously throughout, and applauding at the end.
Then Geoff and I jumped in his car and we hit I-95 and headed north to New York City. We got there in time to join a lot of our NYC-area AOL MSTie buddies for the 7:30 show (completely jammed, raucous laughter and applause). Afterwards we went out for pizza and later we hung out until the wee hours. It was a great day.

Did you see it the first weekend? On some weekend after that? Or was your first experience via VHS or DVD? Tell!
