Fugitive clones!
Hallucinogenic chewing gum! Lost children at the Canadian National
Exhibition! This Halloween, the trick is on boredom as MYSTERY
SCIENCE THEATER 3000 returns with a special treat for devotees of
misunderstood cinema. Rhino salutes the twisted genius of the
award-winning cult television program with a quartet of unreleased

Servo and Crow.

Channel. A hit with critics as well, the show was nominated for two
Emmys while earning Cable Ace and Peabody Awards.
