The Comic Galaxy of Mystery Science Theater 3000

Twelve Classic Episodes and the Movies They Lampoon

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

One of the most original shows in the history of television, Mystery Science Theater 3000 is a beloved cult hit built on the back of another cult phenomenon: the bad movie. The show's premise involved a man and some robots watching cheesy movies and cracking jokes. Over its 197 episodes, MST3K developed a passionate fan base that took it from a local UHF show in Hopkins, Minnesota, to a major motion picture. This is the story of MST3K from the beginning to the end. Twelve of the episodes are covered, giving an in-depth look at the show, its ethos and its comedic style. The films screened in these episodes are discussed critically, as are the episodes themselves.

Autorenporträt

Chris is a spiritual lady who has experienced the most extraordinary life, with the synchronicity of divine intervention. She first became interested in Angels and Spirit Guides when she attended a meditation class where she met healers, psychics, and mediums. They would often channel Angels and Spirit Guides, and she was fascinated by spirituality. She did a lot of healing on spiritual growth and personal development, and over time, felt more inner peace and confidence in herself and felt her body become lighter.It was so powerful. She is writing this book now because Spirit asked her to do so. Chris hopes the readers will connect with the messages from Spirit through all the short stories she is guided to share.
