"Doomsday Machine"!!

I've actually seen this piece of crap unriffed, and can't wait! It's part of the Mill Creek "Nightmare Worlds" box set of 50 crappy movies for one low price. This is one of the most riff-worthy movies I've ever seen, and would have been PERFECT for MST3K. It's everything they could want in a movie. Preposterous plot. A "BJ"... (Hunnicutt from M*A*S*H, that is.) Non-funny comic relief. A spaceship made from random visual effects borrowed from another movie so it never looks the same twice. A twitchy evil astronaut. Explosive decompressions. An ending filmed years later with different actors in non-matching space suits. It really drags near the end, but with some slight trimming, they might be able to pick up the pace.

Awesome!  Glad to see they're back at it!

Apparently, they have three episodes in post production, one of which is probaby "Wasp Woman". They're aiming for a mid-June release for "Doomsday Machine". I just hope they have all their episodes cleared for internet download, and cleared for Canada, too.

Will the DVDs have packaging this time?

Nope, it's a "print your own cover" when you buy from EZtakes.

Ugh. I watched this one on my own as well.

At some point they'll do a movie that DOESN'T make me want to come up with interesting ways to kill myself, right?

In short, this movie teaches us that the human race is better off extinct. I'm not exaggerating at all. It has humans living at what I hope is an exxagerated low.

Still, could be a fun riff.

EZTakes sells the non-riffed version of the movie, and it does appear to be downloadable in Canada. That looks promising. Hopefully, that means the CT release will be as well. If you're wondering about other countries, you might want to check the page for the unriffed DVD:

It it shows you the purchase price, hopefully the CT release will be available, too. If it says "Not Available In Your Country", you may be out of luck.

They seem to be on a hunt for the next Manos, which is not exactly what I want from them.  But I'll buy everything they sell and roll over as well.

All I want is a damn case for my DVD, dozens of other distributors have managed to do that much for less.

Word.  I don't think that's too much to ask.

Well, according to the email update I just got, there will be a case this time.

QuoteHey Everyone,
Thought I'd fill you in on all the happenings here in the rifftopia that is CT. First off, we've got a release date for Cinematic Titanic's Doomsday Machine. The show will be available on DVD and for download on JUNE 19th!

Downloads for Doomsday Machine will again be available through EZtakes. However, DVDs will be available through our online store at CinematicTitanic.com (don't look now, it's not there yet...the store or the dvd ).
Only 2 days After my birfday, but I'll take that as a present anyway ;D

Anyone know if this is going to be available outside the U.S. this time? I'd post over at the forums but I can't be bothered  :)

I guess it depends on who owns the overseas rights to this movie.  Please stay tuned.
