While we love having new episodes of Mystery Science Theater 3000 to watch on Netflix, one aspect of the original show that we miss is the short films. Even though they were originally included as filler for episodes where the movie’s running time was a little too short, the riffing on short films like The Home Economics Story or Are You Ready for Marriage? provided some of the best laughs in the show’s 10-season original run. This week, some of the MST3K alumni – including Michael J. Nelson (“Mike”), Kevin Murphy (“Tom Servo”) and Bill Corbett (“Crow”) – get together at the Belcourt Theater in Nashville, Tennessee, for a one-night short film
festival broadcast live to theaters across the country. Three theaters in town are carrying the simulcast: the Winter Park Village Regal, the Universal CityWalk AMC and the Cinemark at Artegon. We’ve got movie sign!
