Mystery Science Theater 3000: The RiffTrax Experiments Season 1 Episode release dates & where to watch

1. Sting of Death

The storied history of Mystery Science Theater includes many, MANY cheap rubber monster suits... and somehow, some way, Sting of Death may have the worst so far. MSTies might recognize director William Grefé as the director behind the MST3K Season 2 experiment Wild Rebels. You'll be happy to know he made Sting of Death first, so Wild Rebels was a movie he made as an even more experienced filmmaker. As an added bonus, this movie also features the aptly titled 'Do the Jellyfish' by Songwriting Hall of Fame inductee Neil Sedaka. Does this tune warrant TWO extended dance sequences? Probably not, but it is an earworm that will still be drilled into your head long after the credits roll.

2. Deathsport

Deathsport presents the type of action and adventure you'd expect from the director of such thrilling films as Rock 'n' Roll High School and Caddyshack II. It stars David Carradine, whose bad movie oeuvre RiffTrax fans are well familiar with, as well as Richard Lynch, who MST3K fans may remember as the dopey guy "Noel" from Werewolf (pronounced VAIR-vilf). It's a film that has more one-hundred-foot-tall explosions than set pieces. People wave around awkwardly large, plexiglass swords. Roger Corman produced it. When asked to provide a one-line synopsis of this film, Kevin Murphy responded, "David Carradine in a furry loincloth."
