I wish they would do more of these old cheezy body count flicks. The 70’s is such a gold mine of cinematic crap. This looks great. :mrgreen:
Can’t Wait!
(Oh, and by tomorrow, you mean Thursday. :oops: )
Man I am looking forward to this one. I’ve seen Legacy of Blood (bought a copy of it as part of one of Shout! Factory’s Elvira Movie Macabre releases)
For those who don’t know it’s one of those 70’s horror-drama’s that leave you wondering “What the hell?” after watching it.
It’s one of those movies about a disfunctional family who are being willed the wealth of their father (wait for the John Caradine appearance!) annnd it’s got some interesting, but kind of creepy twists.
I won’t spoil it, but it’s about as twisted as THREE Joe Don Baker sex scenes.
Poor john Carridine…He did a lot of good movies in his younger days…It was sad to see him in these late period film…His body had just turned on him…..i never knew if was money problems or alcohol that made work in these film that were really beneith him…Such is life
I’ll be bying this on thurs just like everybody else…..YEA for CT!!!
You think this one is shameful? You should see his role in Monsteroid! Whug, what an awful movie.
I’d like to start a little poll to see how many download compared to how many buy the DVD.
I buy the DVD…so much easier, at least for me.
DVD for me.
DVD for me as well.
Gonna try the download……’beefed up servers’ had better show me the beef.
I downloaded the Oozing Skull mostly because it wasn’t available outside the US for the longest time and it became downloadable internationally first and I want it so bad (SOOOOOOO bad) The other releases (and all future ones) I will be getting the DVD’s because I’d rather have a profesionally made DVD.
DVD for me, too.
Hoping against hope, I will be ordering the DVD.
I always order the DVD. I can wait a few days, and it’s worth it to get a real disc. I usually order the new one, and spend the next couple days watching the previous releases (and untold numbers of MST3000 episodes) to get revved up for the new one.
Download for me.
Most of my MST3K episodes are on VHS, so I don’t mind cheesy mispehled labels.
:)
I also might transfer ‘legacy of blood’ to VHS! I’d like to have a ‘taped’ episode of CT next to my MST collection!
Wow, these folks are true to their game. You go, Mary Jo! I want a chili dog right now…
DVD, I like the little autographed Pics that come with them.
DVD. I just can’t watch movies on a computer. Doesn’t do it for me.
Download. I transfer all my “MST3K” type stuff to MPEG4 so I can watch it on TV (via TiVO), iPhone or Apple TV (plus it never wears out, unlike DVDs :>).
It’s really cool to be able to instantly view any MST3K/Film Crew/CT/RiffTrax video on my TV without having to dig through hundreds of DVDs. While online media isn’t there yet in terms of HD, for “regular” television it’s the only way to go. Quality wise it is indiscernible from a DVD image.
DVD
I’m getting the feeling they’d prefer that everyone downloads it, but I’m not going to consider doing that for awhile.
Sorry, everybody, I don’t know what I was thinking this morning…actually, yes I do. I was thinking it was Thursday. Tomorrow!
Ah, okay then…
In the meantime, I ordered the Cemetery Girls/Vampire Hookers DVD. John Carradine is in Vampire Hookers! I’ll have to supply my own riffs, but that shouldn’t be too challenging.
Download all the way. Discs are so 1997…
I roll the same way Mike Kelley does. All my video is on big hard drives, and I watch them on the TV through Front Row.
“Download” doesn’t have to equal “watch it on your computer monitor”.

How exactly do DVDs “wear out”?
#24 cornjob.. let me interject…. I have not had DVDs wear out per se, but I am legendery ( at least around here ) for my sloppiness and inability to, among others things, put my DVDs back in their cases. And they DO get scratched, and sometimes even broken. But no, that is not the same as wearing out. But they are lost non-the-less :(
cornjob…I was wondering the same thing? Unless you leave them laying around unprotected, I don’t see me outliving any of my current disks?
All media (including hard drives) wears out, gets damaged or otherwise stops being able to play.
While a laser doesn’t provide “wear” the disk is spinning between 570 and 1600 RPMs, and this as well as being inserted and removed repeatedly can cause issues (scratching and nicking).
Far more worrying is recent evidence that oxidization can affect even DVDs stored under very controlled conditions. These oxidization problems are starting to show up with regularity on pressed DVDs at little as ten years old and may prove to be a big problem as we build up more history on longevity.
The bottom line is to always backup and then backup your backups. With digital media this is easy to do. For those things which are important (and I rate MST3K related media at the top of this list) there is no excuse not to do so.
I have a few old discs that don’t play anymore. No scratches or anything, they just seem to have faded away.
DVD for me.
I have huge racks . . . of DVDs. Some people have a trophy room full of taxidermies, medals, and pillars with little sports figures on top. My trophy room just takes a different tact.
Also, people borrow media from me all the time, and handing them a DVD is so much easier than handing them that spare hard drive I don’t have right now.
I ordered the DVD of this new episode this morning. We’re going to MN for the live show in a couple weeks. What a great month for CT/MST3K fans!
Download took 90 minutes.
Watched it.
Fantastic episode! Good job CT! Very much like a season 3 MST.
ELVIRA did this one years ago; nothing new here; I was also disappointed with the first release, “OOzing” which was just another retitle of Al Adamson’s Brain of Blood – been there, done that.
MST3K introduced me to a lot of obscure, weird and just plain awful movies, but somehow they always managed to surprise, from MONSTER A GO-GO to MANOS;
Also, what was great about MST3K was the “back seat” approach – you’re in the theater with them and hearing random commentary; here, they take center stage and blatantly mess with the movie, yet they’re in silhouette as if they are somehow in the background; does not work for me at all, sorry.
Anyone remember COMMANDER USA? Here’s a youtube link:

Not sure I follow, George — you’re opposed to Legacy of Blood because it aired on TV before? And MST3K was better because they only did obscure movies nobody’d ever seen, like, uh, Godzilla flicks and The Amazing Colossal Man?
I give CT credit for sticking to a central theme of riffing on over-the-top body count, gore flicks. A little off topic, is it just me or does Josh get the best lines/riffs or is it in his delivery?
Been away from my computer for a few days. Anybody know what’s up with ordering a Legacy of Blood DVD? Cannot find it on the Cinematic Titanic store page or EZ Takes site.
Order the DVD this morning (had to wait until payday!!).
Just curious, but is CT considered a success by those involved? Has the new business venture generated a profit as of yet?
DLed and loooved it. Best yet, IMO.
BTW, anyone see the latest Geek Monthly? Great Joel and Frank article.
Download. It’s cheaper, quicker, and if it goes bad I just re-burn it.
One thing I have to say about this new release: the “host segments” were much better. I’m not totally against the previous ones like some people seem to be, but the ones in this IMO are much better. The first is worth at least a chuckle, and maybe it’s just me but the over-the-top ridiculousness of the second was great.
I have been buying the DVD, for the packaging and everything everyone else mentioned, but when this episode came out, I was out of town visiting friends who wanted to see it and had a DVD burner.
So this time, I downloaded it, and I gotta say, it was so nice and convenient that I’m probably going to be downloading all future releases. The downloader program works well (although it would be much better if they had something that worked with Linux), includes a button to burn to a DVD, and the DVD that we burned worked in a standard DVD player, no problems.
The movie was great, BTW, although I think they could add one more skit. OK, amending. The riffing was great, the movie was absolutely terrible. :)
That last line, “The last thing a chili dog sees”… Wasn’t that line used in one of the more classic MST3K episodes with Joe Don Baker? I’m thinking Final Justice.
Almost, it was “The last thing a sausage sees.”
