Horror Movies Featured in MST3K

List by penguin_pete

“In the not-too-distant future...” The horror genre is fortunate to attract some of the top talent in film history. We even get a few Oscars every now and then, albeit mostly for special effects and make-up, but meh we’ll take ‘em. Unfortunately, horror is also the genre where, when things go wrong, they go _REALLY_ wrong! When that happens, Mystery Science Theater 3000 is a long-running B-movie riff show and comedy classic that has been an enduring staple of genre fiction fandom. When you want to cross a movie off your bucket list but it’s just too horrible to sit through straight, the MST3K crew with its wisecracking robots is here to help you get through it.
