As we reported a month ago, the campaign to #MakeMoreMST3K reached it’s initial goal in an impressive thirty-six hours. But wait, there’s more!
Friday night, Joel Hodgson and members of the new casts hosted a five-hour long telethon, featuring an eclectic collection of Very Special Guests (Dana Gould! Alex Winter!! Rockafire Explosion…?..!!!) which, in addition to being super fun, culminated in 36,581 backers breaking the old MST3K Kickstarter record and raising $6,519,019!
So we’re not just getting more MST3K, we’re getting a
plethora of MST3K.
First things first, head over to the Kickstarter if you want to see what Hodgson and the team have planned!
Mike Flanagan, who has adapted a fair few King stories himself with films like
Doctor Sleep and
Gerald’s Game. The show will also feature a surprise “Mystery Guest” who has never appeared on the show before.
