Win old favorite 'Mystery Science Theater 3000'

For years, "Mystery Science Theater 3000" was destination viewing in my dorm/apartment. Who can ever forget "Manos: Hands of Fate"?

Never seen "MST3K"? Imagine watching a guy and a couple robot puppets doing the exact same thing you do when you watch a bad old movie. Only, it looks like they're in a movie theater, and you see their shadows in the corner as they heckle the film. With professionally (mostly) written one-liners.

This week, I'm giving away the latest DVD release, "MST3K XVI" from Shout Factory. The movies undergoing (usually) witty commentary by Joel Hodgson and Mike Nelson (and hapless robots Tom Servo and Crow T. Robot) on this outing are "The Corpse Vanishes," "Warrior of the Lost World," "Santa Claus" and "Night of the Blood Beast." Hmm, one of these is not like the others. The set also includes a Tom Servo figurine.

For your chance to win, send your name and address to ehenrickson@detnews.com. Use "MST3K" as the subject line, and enter only once by Nov. 6.

Good luck!
