Well, there are a lot of fans of those 1950s SF B-movies who thank the Medveds for unearthing flicks that, otherwise, might not have ever come to the attention of turkey-philes. In fact, the reason they wrote a sequel to "Golden Turkey" is because a typical "dispatch from the trenches" read thusly: "How dare you guys put out a book on terrible movies, without mentioning my personal favorite, 'The Slave Girl and the Monster'?!"
I'm not an MST3K fan per se, but I have watched some truly funny MST3Kings. I don't remember the title of the movie, but one of the characters was named "Rausdauer" (sp?), and at one point, he's trying to save his friend from the bad guys in the wilderness, and picks up a grappling hook that just HAPPENS to be lying on a hillside: "What is this, a grappling hook dumping ground?"
The thing is, you can MST3K any movie, not just the bad B-movies.
