Fantastic picture of Reb Brown screaming there. That ending "chase" scene is just so fantastic in how bad it is that I bust out laughing every time.<br /><br />SPACE MUTINY is one of the MST3K's that would be entirely hilarious even without the riffing. It's just such a gleefully bad movie.<br /><br />Also, the more Reb Brown you can review here, the better. I for one anxiously await the STRIKE COMMANDO review (or the sequel, for that matter).Troy Olsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14843741571724231174noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-196474091232449207.post-40869712496005213972011-03-16T23:07:36.892-04:002011-03-16T23:07:36.892-04:00Oh yeah, "Master Ninja theme song!".Oh yeah, "Master Ninja theme song!".Direct to Video Connoisseurhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02310858965138247572noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-196474091232449207.post-43453115801026313772011-03-16T22:57:15.694-04:002011-03-16T22:57:15.694-04:00I just got the new MST box set today and popped on...I just got the new MST box set today and popped on Master Ninja.

I can't wait to see some of your takes on those.<br /><br />I had a feeling you'd love that scene, I was just hoping it was on YouTube, which it was. I'm looking to do a full review the week after next. I agree that the deeper I get into the lower tiers of moviedom, the more and more rewarding it gets.Direct to Video Connoisseurhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02310858965138247572noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-196474091232449207.post-19714430822438509612011-03-16T18:06:47.050-04:002011-03-16T18:06:47.050-04:00It IS getting pretty awesome.

And was that recycled footage from Robowar I saw at the end there when he punches that Russian over the cliff. Isn't that the same thing as Reb Brown leaping off the cliff to escape the exploding robot?<br /><br />Holy crap. It really is getting awesome. I love movies.<br /><br />Also, I should do a MST3K week too. I've been dying to watch The Killer Shrews.<br /><br />I've only sat through a handful of episodes but I'll admit...I own the original movies of the MST3K versions. Santa Claus Conquers the Martians. Future War. Manos: The Hands of Fate.

I still have so much to learn but just in the last couple of years I have absorbed so much terrible movie trivia and facts that it's really sad when I pop in an old forgotten film that I know the production company, a few actors, the director, and producers.

And venom is correct...I own that DVD. It's amazing.<br /><br />And did you notice that there is a lot of recycled footage from Battlestar Galactica? The ship that Reb Brown crashes into the landing bay...and the actual giant ship itself. All from BG. Just adds to the greatness of this movie.<br /><br />Reb Brown's screaming is second to none. I LOVE when he does that. If you need more Reb Brown check out Uncommon Valor on Instant Watch. I haven't seen it yet but I know he's in it alongside other...better actors.Mr. Gablehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10692611832324650463noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-196474091232449207.post-64026823847703473472011-03-16T00:07:25.209-04:002011-03-16T00:07:25.209-04:00There's a non-MSt3k DVD version of this film t...There's a non-MSt3k DVD version of this film that also come with another entertaining low-budget sci-fi actioner called Firehead, that's the version I saw and if you ask me, I think it works better on it's own.venomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06632381738581803935noreply@blogger.com
