Damn, these are good and funny. I love that extra large Texas on "Rocketship X-M." And the "Robot Monster" one is classic! 1,000,000,000 times better than the film! Thanks so much. I'm glad some people are enjoying these. I feel like I'm just spamming the board sometimes.

s'more 203 - Jungle Goddess -Same as before. I'm not sure how obvious this one is, so I'll do the lame thing and just explain it. The plane crash is self explanatory, but the border isn't there for looks. When I see this steaming pile, I start thinking of hardcore racism, xenophobia, and manifest destiny, so the cover has white over black. It's a third grader's view of symbolic imagery, but I like it. 204 - Catalina Caper -just a copy and paste of the original. I figured a blurry, underwater shot isn't going to suffer if it gets more blurry. 205 - Rocket Attack USA - Very similar to before, " help me." I changed the sign so it more accurately represented the blind man.

And, again. I made these just for the kicks, man. 206 - Ring of Terror -Similar to before, but more colorful. PEWMA!. On my list of evil creatures, cats are probably no. 3, so I think this makes a good horror movie cover. They kill constantly for no reason, fight with any animal they encounter, and crazy people think they make good pets. If you're asked to imagine an evil eye, odds are it's a cat's. And in case you're wondering, humans are no. 2, and fire ants are no. 1, the bouncing betties of the animal kingdom. They exist for no reason other than to randomly attack anything that comes near them. 207 - Wild Rebels -Same idea as before, but a different photo. You will not find a cooler getaway car than the Ford Country Sedan. I hope they had the V8 T Bird engine in that thing, because otherwise, they weren't getting away from anyone. Also, since I watched this last, I've been singing the Wild Rebels Cereal song every time I go grocery shopping. That can't be good. 208 - Lost Continent -same as before, rock climbing. Rock climbing.

Some more. I'm going to bring civilization to all of you, by dropping an atomic bomb. 209 - the Hellcats - same as before. Heroin, lots of heroin. 210 - King Dinosaur - This is new, focusing on Joey the (not) Lemur. 211 - First Spaceship on Venus - same as before, highlighting the scene with the flowing fudge. One of the many mst movies where I forget what's going on while I'm watching.

The end of season 2, and Comedy Central is born. 212 - Godzilla vs Megalon -Copy and paste of the original. There's more wrestling in this movie than RAW. Does anyone else think the new Camaro looks like Jet Jaguar, or is it just me? 213 - Godzilla vs the Sea Monster -This is new, in the style I made the Gameras. I really like this one. I think it's the color 301 - Cave Dwellers -Similar to before, but different picture. Ator can do magic things.

IT STINKS 302 - Gamera -This is new, and very simple. This is one of my favorite episodes. Joel telling Tom that Tibby's long dead, followed by Tom's Tibby song, and then Crow and Tom unleashing a bunch of negative energy on Kenny with Joel's Jim Varney doll... Awesome. 303 - Pod People -Same style as before. I have a lifelong obsession with things that glow, so this cover is a favorite. 304 - Gamera vs Barugon -This is new. Barugon and his rainbow coalition, or is it the united colors of Benetton?

Hike, hike, hike... hike your pants up.305 - Stranded in Space -This is new. The old one focused on the Plymouth Fury, and since I'd done so many other car based covers, I looked for a new idea. 306 - Time of the Apes - Same as before, based on the "I Want to Believe" poster made famous by the X Files. The shadowrama really made a mess of this one. 307 - Daddy O - Same as before with a new title font. Last time I watched this, all I could think about was how much of an insane b*tch Sandra Giles' character is to Daddy-O. It's so often that Hollywood tries to write a strong, central, female character, and she comes out only slightly more stable than Moony. And speaking of cars, that's a nice Triumph Daddy O has. A good movie might have brought attention to its back story, especially since most Americans wouldn't recognize it (I certainly didn't). Also, the race between Giles' 55 T-Bird and Contino's Triumph could have made an interesting story. You have a lightweight, low hp, Euro car that handles well, vs a heavy, high hp, American track star. Ugh, must. stop. thinking. about. dumb. movie... Oh well, at least gym policy guy is awesome.

You really do some beautiful work, plissken. Thanks so much. While making these covers, I realized why they sang the "Sandy Frank Song." He's responsible for so many terrible, poorly dubbed movies, many done twice due to KTMA... so much pain. What sin could a man commit in a single lifetime to deserve that? 308 - Gamera vs Gaos -Copy and paste of the original. It looked ok, so lazy won the day. 309 - The Amazing Colossal Man -similar to before, but I couldn't find the original picture with the miniature bible. Oh well. The skit with Joel as the Whining Colossal Man is a classic. I love the way he keeps hitting his leg. 310 - Fugitive Alien -This is new. He tried to kill me with a forklift... OLE! This reminds me of the Windows 3.1 screensavers that just had stuff scrolling across the screen.

He learned too late that man is a feeling creature... 311 - It Conquered the World -same as before, with some color for whatever reason. 312 - Gamera vs Guiron - This is new, and I really like it. Mr. Knife Head made for a great silhouette. 313 - Earth vs the Spider -Same ol. When I was looking for pictures of cargo nets, I found this picture and fell in love with it. I'm not sure how much it relates to the crummy spider web in the film, but it's a beautiful picture and I had to use it.

Dude. Thanks for being the best part of my MST collection. Wow, thanks. You're far too kind. And three more. I just noticed that we're in a run of 12 films done either by Sandy Frank, the Cor Man, or Mr. BIG. That's impressive. 314 - Mighty Jack -Same as before. Toy boat, toy boat... For anyone here who's either too old, too young, or just not nerdy enough, that's the Atari logo on the front. Also, that's a modern Mighty Jack toy on the back. Its mere existence boggles the mind. 315 - Teenage Caveman -Same as before, I fought the law, and the law won. I watched this one again thinking I'd come up with a more interesting cover, but like the film, came up empty. As is often the case for Corman, this is an interesting idea, but he doesn't have the money, time, talent, or intelligence to make it work. All he and his cronies cared about was turning a quick profit, which is why I hold him in such low regard. 316 - Gamera vs Zigra -This is new. It is also very simple, and very yellow. I'm not sure if I love it or hate it.

Wow! Sorry it took an injury to spark these, but they're excellent.
By the way, if you ever want to check any Japanese text, lemme know.
