And the two Doctor Who movies that were pulled about a year ago are now back up.
This is off-topic, but what happened to the annotated episodes on MST3K’s official YouTube channel? The last one was uploaded four months ago.
I think YouTube stopped supporting the annotation system.
Obscure. That’s the word for this movie. Obscure. Bootleg copies in Europe inspired a hard core punk band from Manchester, England to name themselves REVENGE OF THE PSYCHOTRONIC MAN. I asked my son who went to school in Sheffield and became a fan of that sort of thing what he knew of the band. “Never heard of them”. You know you’re obscure when even your namesake band is obscure. Next time I get a haircut I will ask there.

I don’t think it’s that obscure a movie. Or maybe it’s a Midwest thing, but I not only knew the movie, but knew it was filmed completely in Chicago
The trippy world of being a barber? What does he want to be – a lumberjack?
What does “psychotronic” even mean? His brain is made of transistors and powered by a couple D cell batteries?
