enjoyed it

What can I say, funny stuff. I've been a fan of MST3000 since it first started on cable and am happy to be able to watch Joel and the bots again. I never get tired of them.

Mystery Science Theater 3000 Volume XIV
by Rodney H. Fisher (usa)
The second MST3K DVD box set by Shout! Factory. This set contains four episodes from the show. Two episodes are from the Comedy Central-era of the show. The other two are from the Sci-Fi Channel-era. Two feature Joel Robinson as host. The other two feature Mike Nelson as host. This was the second MST3K box set that I ever got. I was extremely excited when I received it. This set also contains a few special features including a trailer for one of movies. It also contains two new interviews with Joe Estevez and Greydon Clark. This set contains four mini posters which are the covers of the indiviual DVD cases for the episodes. I would recommend this set to any "MSTie." It's great fun.

Yet another reason for "Misties" to Rejoice
by Stephen Rustad (Petaluma, CA United States)
Our family first caught the Mystery Science Theater 3000 bug on the SciFi Channel shortly before the show was discontinued. Since then we've fed our MST3000 habit with the periodic releases of their compilations. I confess that we prefer the episodes that feature Mike and bots over those hosted by the show's founder Joel. Volume XIV includes two episodes hosted by each. Regardless of who hosts the episode you can count on funny skits, ironic commentary on the absurdly bad films, and often trenchant observations on social trends that were current when the episode aired. Even our least favorite MST3K episodes are better than most live TV these days.
5/5
Oh the humor!
by Michael Valdivielso (Alexandria, VA)
I am really happy I got this volume because, frankly, I missed many of these shows when they first were run. So for me it was like discovering MST3K all over again!
Mad Monster, Show 103, is the third MST3K played on the Comedy Channel, before it was renamed Comedy Central, and also has a episode of Commando Cody And The Radar Men From The Moon. It is one of those I missed. MST3K was brand new and it took a few weeks before people started to turn on the TV every week to watch. Like most of the first films, Mad Monster is in Black and White, a bad sci-fi film about a scientist who finds out how to turn men into monsters. Well, in this case a werewolf. But funny enough that wolf looks more like a coyote. But why nitpick on the small stuff?
Manhunt In Space, Show 413, was also one of the shows I, somehow, missed. It comes with a General Hospital episode. Both the movie and the short are in Black and White. The movie is in fact a television series in which some of the episodes were spliced together to make a full movie. There are everything from Space Ghost references to one reference to Daleks! They also talk about Cold Light, which I thought came from Santa Claus Conquers the Martians, and I learned to never open the hatch without peeking out a window first.
Soultaker, Show 1001, is a very famous episode within the cult that is MST3K. Not only does it have Joe Estevez, who also starred in Werewolf, and Robert Z'Dar, who was in Future War, in the film, but TV's Frank and Joel both come back to make a appearance on the show. Such love and warmth. Too bad the film is so bad. But that's good! Because bad films are Mike and the Bots' bread and butter.
They have a interview with Joe Estevez on the DVD.
The last episode in the set is Final Justice, Show 1008, starring Joe Don Baker. Mike and the Bots have a ton of fun with this film. "Hey, you going to finish that?" The movie is full of lovely ladies, gun fights, a chase with Joe Don Baker going after a Maltese mob member dressed up as a Monk. Or is it a member of the Italian Mafia? Lots of food jokes. In fact tons of jokes all about either Joe Don Baker or Maltese men. The writer, producer and director is Greydon Clark. They even have a interview with him on the DVD!
The set came with cool mini-posters - I got an extra Soultaker poster by accident! A must for any library of MST3K or any collection of bad movies.
5/5
Another Good MST3K set.
by G. Chance (Annandale, VA USA)
Other reviewers have done a better job than I could ever do, but I want to add my voice to the others so this great show will keep getting released. This is another good set of MST3K episodes (Soultaker is one of my favorite episodes) and should be purchased by any fan of the series. As I've said before, if you are a fan you would have this already, if not, I can't convince you to buy it.
If you want more from the boys of MST3K, check out www.rifftrax.com. They are still at it and are better than ever, riffing on new movies and old shorts.

Aside from reminding audiences just how unique and hilarious
Mystery Science Theater 3000
was, the comedy series' 20th anniversary in 2008 also kicked off a new round of DVD releases, the latest of which is compiled in
Volume XIV
. Longtime fans of the Peabody Award-winning show should be pleased to see that the set's four episodes are split evenly between original host and creator Joel Hodgson and his replacement, head writer Mike Nelson. Joel rides herd on one of the earliest
MST3K
episodes, Season 1's B&W chiller
The Mad Monster
, which also features writer J. Elvis Weinstein as both the voice of Tom Servo and Dr. Lawrence Erlich, assistant to Trace Beaulieu's Dr. Forrester. It's an enjoyable episode for hardcore fans and collectors, but nowhere near as polished as the work done by the original core lineup--Hodgson, Beaulieu as Crow and Kevin Murphy as Servo--in Season 4's
Manhunt in Space
, a grisly mash-up of episodes from the '50s TV sci-fi series
Rocky Jones, Space Ranger
. It's by no means a classic from the Hodgson era, but definitely contains its shares of laughs and even some quirky host segments (the movie prompts an amusing debate on the use of the word "space" as a modifier). The Mike Nelson episodes, produced after the show shifted over to The Sci-Fi Channel, are equally solid efforts.
Soultaker
undergoes a punishing barrage of riffs from Mike and the 'bots, and even features brief cameos from Hodgson and Frank Coniff as the much-loved TV's Frank.
Final Justice
puts Joe Don Baker--star of the MST3K favorite
Mitchell
--in the line of fire again for a mostly funny show that focuses largely on the star's beefy physique. Though none of the shows are high water marks for the series, you're likely to find more laughs and creativity here than on most of the sitcoms plaguing the airwaves, and as such, are worthwhile investments for veteran MiSTies and first time viewers alike. The four DVD set includes all four complete episodes, as well as several extras – a slightly smaller batch than the
20th Anniversary Edition
set, and less historically important, but entertaining all the same.
Soultaker
star Joe Estevez and
Final Justice
director Greydon Clark (
Black Shampoo
) show what good sports they are about being drubbed by the show in brief interviews, while Mike and the 'bots reunite for an all-too-brief session of zingers on a 2005 excerpt from ESPN's
Cheap Seats Without Ron Parker
. A trailer for
Mad Monster
rounds out the set.
