PlanetOut writer (and “resident MST3K expert”) William Rankin interviews Joel.
As the Titans hit the road for their winter tour, J. Elvis sent out an email with some news: In San Francisco this weekend, they will riff on Blood of the Vampires on Friday. J. Elvis calls it “one of our very favorite riffing films, soon to be our next release.” On Saturday the movie will be 1974’s “The Dynamite Brothers” which J. Elvis says describes as a look into “the seedy and hilarious world of ‘Kung-sploitation.’ ” Yow. Note: This will also be the line-up next week in Boston. Get tickets for the San Francisco shows this weekend here. Meanwhile, the preview press in the Bay Area has started. ![]() RiffTrax is continuing to release “three riffer” commentary tracks for movies that were released by Legend Films with solo commentaries by Mike. On the heels of “Reefer Madness,” “Little Shop of Horrors” amd “House On Haunted Hill” comes “Night of the Living Dead.” As with the others, if you previously bought the Legend DVD, all you need is to download the commentary and you’re all set. If you didn’t buy the DVD, you can also download it as a video-on-demand file that includes the movie and the riffing. Updated: Two important items were brought up in the comments that I probably should have included:
American Scary, a documentary about late night TV horror shows that includes an interview with Joel Hodgson, is finally being released on DVD on February 17. You can pre-order it now from Amazon for $17.99. “The Chronic Rift” podcast asked Frank Conniff to join in their discussion saluting the 20th anniversary of MST3K. He offers some interesting reflections on the show.
