Cinematic Titanic is the live movie riffing show from the creator and original cast of Mystery Science Theater 3000 and they’re bringing their show to St. Louis this Saturday October 12th for what they’re calling their ‘Farewell Tour’ which I guess means this is the last time you’ll be able to see these guys riff on movies.

And what of the massive crew of grips, gaffers, script supervisors, stand-ins, technical and historical advisors and assistants essential to producing a professional, polished movie?
Balderdash!
Try a cameraman, boom operator and two lights. That’s how Wynorski, one of the most celebrated and infamous B-movie directors in the industry works. And the hilarious documentary,...
