The Film Crew: Killers From Space: 

After the mildly disappointing debut of the Film Crew, this next installment proves that Mike, Bill and Kevin are again at the top of their game.

Peter Graves stars as a rather bland scientist revived by aliens with ping pong eyes so that he can steal nuclear secrets which he has been working on. They need this in able to achieve, what else, world domination! So it's Peter Graves vs. the rest of the world as he is the only one who knows about them and, armed with paper and a slide rule. the only one who can save the day.

The Film Crew does an excellent job with this little turd of a film. There seemed to be less of the toilet humor and more cultural references, which is a welcome change.

I can honestly say that The Film Crew has met all my expectations. No, it's not MST3K and it's something that you have to get used to now that the sight gags, the host segments and all the other non-movie things about MST3K.

Next for the Film Crew is The Wild Women of Wongo, which is currently in my backlog with Giant of Marathon not far behind. For those who want just MST3K Volume 12 is coming soon. Either way, I'm happy.
