Mystery Science Theatre 3000...

Or, MST3K as it is adoringly called by its diehard fans who call themselves "misties."

Join JoeL, Mike and his robot friends, Crow, Tom Servo, Gypsy and Cambot, in the Satellite of Love for the first EVPL "Bad Movie Night"

It's Big. It's bold! It's Grand! It's smart-alecky! It's Ironic! It's tongue-in-cheek sweetly sarcastic and teasingly-good fun! Watch, as Dr. Forester and TV's Frank force the boys of the S.O.L. (Satellite of Love) to endure bad "B" movies (or should I say "C? "D?" "F"?). To stay sane, Joel and his witty robot pals "riff" on and make fun of the bad dialogue, the plot (or lack thereof) and, well,. everything else bad about the movie. And believe me, there is plenty bad about these movies!

First up? - Manos: the Hands of Fate, a film made by Texas fertilizer salesman Harold P. Warren which, according to Wikipedia, was made for under $20,000. And, in this train-wreck, it shows!! See Torgo, the disgusting, wretched, thighful assistant to "The Master", do rotten things in this Rotten Tomato. This stinker of a movie is unintentionally f-u-n-n-n-n-n-y and a train-wreck you won't want to miss.

Come prepared to laugh. It's Bad Movie Night in the Browning Room at EVPL. It's a Stinger of an experience.

Ever get really tired of all the glitz, Hollywood glamour and CGI special effects and long for the days of rubber monsters masks, UFO's made of paper plates, giant insects and storylines that could have been written by a 3rd grader? Well those days are alive and well at EVPL.

Central Library is proud to announce it's very first "BAD MOVIE NIGHT" on Thursday September 30, 2010 from 6:00-8:00 in the Browning Events Room on first floor. Please feel free to forward this blog to all of your friends who may be interested in attending. If you have never seen a Mystery Science Theatre 3000 movie in the company of a crowd of others, AND------ ON THE BIG SCREEN!!!!!!! Now's your chance. Don't miss it! There will be free popcorn too. (To eat ----We ask that you resist the temptation to throw it at the screen!!!)

One person "reviewed" this movie in Amazon.

"If you're looking for a description of how it takes cinema to a new abysmal low . . . well, here goes: Imagine getting a continuously out of focus Handy 8 camera from the 60's, get 6 of your best friends (make ABSOLUTELY sure they can't act), go to a local bar and pick the first 6 women you see and dress them in K-mart nightgowns, go to a desolate beach with a cottage in Ohio somewhere with a script you've written in one hour (and no more) and start filming away. Believe me, you couldn't do any worse."

Yours truly and our very own Madonna will be your hostesses for this "MUST SEE" event.
