Oscar season is upon us. While Hollywood executives are praying that their millions spent in ads and early Oscar buzz lead you (and Academy voters) into the theaters this December, Joel Hodgson is hoping you would prefer to watch cheesy B-movies with him and his robot friends.
Hodgson is the creator of Mystery Science Theater 3000 (MST3K), which spent 11 seasons on cable TV during the 80’s and 90’s “riffing” on bad movies.
More than 15 years later, Hodgson is crowdfunding a 12th season of MST3K on Kickstarter and has already raised over $3 million for its production.
