I've ordered it. Just waiting on it coming through customs. In all honesty CT's previous mail-outs to me have been very speedy (about 4 or 5 days compared to Amazon's 7 to 10) so I should have it soon. I can't wait!

I tried to watch Iron Man’s trax but it was all pretty obvious (Downy’s drug addictions, Stark as rebel) and not so satisfying –maybe it’ll get better- but bored I popped on this and laughter ensued. I like the variety of the riffing and how they zero in on the movie, very observational in style and I love the old school references (Josh singing the Mary Tyler Moore theme, the Partridge Family line).
Another classic from the Titans
Nice cast - Richard Davelos (pictured on the Smiths album “Strangeways, here we come”) John Russell (Mr. Tropp in Untamed Youth), Faith Domergue and Jeff Marrow (who both starred in “This Island Earth”)

I would say that this has been the best effort so far from the Cinematic Titanic gang. Great riffs.
As far as the movie istself, I think I was as creeped out as the Cinematic Titanic gang was.
How about the music at the end credits? I thought this was supposed to be a horror movie!

^ Yeah I think it might be their best as well. I have such an affection for Oozing Skull, I know that's not the most popular one here, but I really loved it. But this challenges it for my top spot.
Plus while I know it's a bad film, I didn't have a difficult time sitting through it. maybe I was laughing too hard to care?

I really liked this one. EZ-ly downloaded via EZ-takes. I've watched it twice and it's pretty damn good.
I also enjoyed Frank informing Josh (who risks getting killed at one point), that "In my experience, you can die and come back in the next episode."

I downloaded it the day it came out but just watched it today.
Decent episode. I rank it second behind Wasp Woman. The movie itself is dreary and plodding, but not so much as Oozing Skull and especially not Doomsday Machine. The actors were better I suppose.
I noticed in this episode that more of the story as to why the CT crew was riffing was unveiled. It seems they're now trapped riffing on bad movies by the group sponsoring this venture (MST3K fans with a lot of money?). However at this point they don't seem to mind it (nor are they apparently all that aware of their fate).
Riffing was as per usual with the CT eps. Fairly laid back. The host segments were forgettable. Wasp woman had more bite to it, but this was okay.

Yeah, I'm not sure what the make of the movie itself, or the director's intention. It's almost like he started out trying to make some real type of thriller horror, and about half way thru gave up and let the cast run wild and then went for a bonkers-ending. I mean, even the ending credit's music sounded like a novelty record!
The Riffing was great, and I rate it as the best CT release yet. I LOLed several times, and it was great to hear Trace throw in a classic riff used many times in MST3k.
I do have to agree with MJP, this was the most B&W Color movie I've ever seen.

Loved 'legacy of blood'. Really good stuff. Can't wait for the next movie!
I wonder in what direction CT are headed? Are they saving money to buy a studio/building? (I'd like to visit and tour the headquarters!)
Do they ever plan on having live action 'sketches'? I realize they probably don't want to do the costumes/make-up' stuff, but I'd really like to see 'breaks' in the movie, a short or something.

Legacy of BloodPosted my review and this was a fun one to write. The only trouble was that there was so much I wanted to quote, so many memorable moments and so little space. I tell ya, that final half hour was a blast, as funny as anything I’ve heard in any riff project.

Decent episode. I rank it second behind Wasp Woman. That sums it up for me as well. |

Damnit people, stop praising. Mine still hasn't come in the mail yet (I ordered on Saturday, damn holiday weekend).
I ask you all to bash it until I get it in the mail and bask in Cinematic Titanic awsomeness.

It was good, funny episode and the DVD was shipped amazingly quick. I got mine Tuesday somehow.
My favorite CT show is now a toss up between between Doomsday Machine and Legacy of Blood. I love bad movies with "memorable" endings.
And I'll never look at ham the same way again.

Recieved my copy of LoB here in the UK this very morning (ordered on the 9th, nice quick shipping!), with signed card. What they'll do when their DVD output is higher than their cast roster, I dunno... Hire more staff? Looking forward to watching this tonight!  C. |
