MST3K 822 - Overdrawn at the Memory Bank

The Master will be displeased if you don't play It

A photo album dedicated to the greatest Canadian to ever live.

You've got plenty of time if you want a challenge. They're only on season 1 right now.

In Memory of Bruce J. Mitchell (1945-2018)

RIP Roger, thanks for Gunslinger, The Undead, Deathstalker and the Warriors from Hell and so many more.

I made some trail mix out of rat droppings and hair.

(I know this is about Rifftrax, but we don't have a Rifftrax community.)

A remastered and upscaled version of the never commercially released MST3K episode Quest For The Delta Knights. Possibly, the best quality version anywhere outside of the vault with the MST master tapes in it.

This is the fully reconstructed version, with intro, host segments, and credits. Multiple sources of varying quality were used to piece everything back together, for technical reasons the frame rate of all the clips was converted to 24fps to match the movie frame rate.

Enjoy!

Pretty interesting find! This was apparently a lost riff of Cinematic Titanic that was never filmed, though it was performed live! So, someone synced up a really good sounding recording, with the film, and we got this!

Dave "Gruber" Allen takes the place of Josh, who was out sick.

A ton of other stuff I could never afford is also being auctioned. My other favorite-

"No, sir! I didn't see you playing with your dolls again!"

Clips are from my favorite MST3K episode "The Undead". A delightfully dreadful film from 1957 directed by the king of B-movies, Roger Corman.

Overdrawn At The Memory Bank - (1984)

The mind of a computer programmer forced to take a virtual vacation is removed by a totalitarian government and accidentally trapped in the virtual reality simulation. He must find a way out before he expires.

In the regimented world of the future, five major corporations wield total control over men's minds and actions. But a few men still remain strong enough to resist and romantic enough to dream.

Aram Fingal (Raul Julia) is just such a man. Refusing to submit to the mindless monotony of his world, Fingal punches up endless reruns of "Casablanca" on his video display terminal. Until, in a strange mechanical mix-up his identity and Rick Blaine's become FUSED within Novacorp's computer bank.

Fingal is suddenly plunged into a parallel reality within the central computer. Only now, "Casablanca" is not just flickering fiction on his screen, but a frightening reality. Now, the Fat Man throws "real" poison darts. Now the police shoot real bullets and Pierre really die. Now, Rick Blaine is a FLESH AND BLOOD hero headed straight for identicube destruction!

Starring: Raul Julia

Color--Running Time: 85 minutes

This made-for-public-television classic and MST3k favorite is presented unriffed, uncut, and digitally restored, with approximately 12 minutes of footage that was cut from the MST3k version.

Overdrawn At The Memory Bank never made it to DVD, and never got any kind of an high quality HD release... Until now, this movie was only available on out of print VHS tapes, and an ultra-rare Laserdisc release, which was used for this restoration project.

Due to Youtube's low streaming quality, we suggest using this direct high quality download link

Greetings, backers.

Well, we’ve come to the end of the month, and the end of the Turkey Day Marathon and this campaign.

While we’re incredibly grateful for all of the support, enthusiasm, and encouragement, it’s clear we’ve fallen short of our goal this time.

First, to be clear, please understand that that means that no one will be charged anything, and we will not be collecting anything that you pledged to this campaign , since the agreement was that we’d only collect funds if we reached our minimum goal. No charges will be put on anyone’s credit cards.

Second, and more important, please know that we’re incredibly grateful for all of your input, feedback, concerns and questions, and are thinking about all the suggestions you have made over the past month.

One silver lining is that the continued support for this campaign, and the show, may have opened up some new conversations about potential partnerships and fundraising that could be key in getting the show another season.

We’ll spend some time now exploring those, and working to integrate all of the feedback and suggestions we’ve heard from you, and will follow up again next year, Lord willing and the creek don’t rise, when we’ve had a chance to regroup and have more to share downstream.

For now, whether you pledged or not, please accept our thanks and gratitude for your ongoing dedication and investment in MST3K.

We’re proud that the show continues to mean so much, to so many, and will keep working to figure out a path forward so that we can hopefully continue to #MakeMoreMST3K.

Until then, have a wonderful holiday season, and thanks again for all of your support.

Cheers and Thanks,

Joel and Team MST3K
