I have seen only about 70 episodes of Mystery Science Theater 3000 (my personal idea of the greatest achievement in television), but this version of Hamlet, produced for German television, probably has to be the best film I've ever seen shotgunned on that program (whoops - I forgot they did "Day of the Triffids"). Don't get me wrong - it's not very good (I gave it a '5') - but it's certainly no "I Accuse My Parents," or something from the beloved Coleman Frances oeuvre. It's even better than "Marooned" (aka "Space Travelers").
