5.0 out of 5 stars I never met an MST3K I didn't like..., December 17, 1999

And this is no exception. Maybe you just have to see it a few times to really appreciate it. I bought this video when it first came out even though The Gunslinger didn't thrill me when I saw it on Comedy Central the first time. But after the 3rd and 4th viewing I was howling with laughter. I love Jake (Wormie) the best. Every time Joel or one of the bots made a comment about him I just about died laughing. Roger Corman really knew how to make 'em. And check out the "seething sexual tension" between Beverly Garland and John Ireland, well... just don't miss this sleeper episode!

This review is from: Mystery Science Theater 3000: The Gunslinger (VHS Tape)

When her lawman husband is plugged in the opening moments of the film, Beverly Garland decides She's The Sheriff and sets out to clean up this one-hoss town.

'The Gunslinger' is a reunion of MST veterans, including Corman, Garland, Allison Hayes, Bruno VeSota, screenwriter Marc Hanna, and many more. They combine to pitch a softball to Joel and The Bots, who oblige by really knocking this one out of the park.

The host segments are just as good as the riffing on the schlocky movie -- from J&TB's game of Kaboom! in the opening, to their planning their own funerals ('I'll lie in state at the Cow Palace for several days while "Hooked on a Feeling" is sung by a choir of castrati.'), to Tom Servo's warping of time and space. Also, this is Joel's second-to-last episode as host, so it's memorable for that, too.

This is one of my two or three favorite MST episodes, and I recommend it very highly.

5.0 out of 5 stars Huh. I thought it was pretty darn good., November 9, 1999

I thought both Servo's explanation of how the characters in the movie get around so fast and him communicating to Joel about what he wants for lunch via Pony Express were quite funny. I also thought the comments were great - like noticing the door to the guy's room opens backwards and then going off on how he must really be in the hall. "Well, now she's in my room! What the..?" Maybe it's just me but I really liked this one.
