Movie Reviews of The Film Crew: Killers From Space
Movie Review: Between MST3K and RiffTrax, there was The Film Crew...
Summary: 3 Stars
With the MST3K Alumni now divided into the RiffTrax and Cinematic Titanic camps, it's easy to see "The Film Crew" for what it was...an interim project, and experiment, something that led the team of Mike Nelson, Kevin Murphy and Bill Corbett to bigger and better things (RiffTrax).
We all loved the 'bots, and while Cinematic Titanic re-instituted the "silhouettes" gimmick, both teams are 'bot-less. In "Killers From Space," we have MST3K-style cast skits that break up the movie. "Killers" isn't a "so bad it's good" film, it is simply bad and dull.
In terms of the "Film Crew" vibe, Nelson and company are just trying too hard. The "Mission Impossible Meets Dr. Clayton Forrester" thing is forced, as if they were trying to copy MST3K's format without looking like they were trying to copy it (which made it look exactly like copying).
The three stars in my review are basically a star each for Mike, Kevin, and Bill for getting back on the horse and giving the fans what they wanted...wise cracks over bad movies. Of course, what the fans really want is a full-blown, 'bots-included MST3K reunion, and that remains to be seen...or not.
Thanks, Mike and Kevin and Bill. Keep on riffin' in the free world.
