I got the MST3k tape in the mail today so I’m watching it… man… it really is as bad as everyone says…
But was it so bad that the cast members entered into a suicide pact?
According to the IMDB, three members of the cast committed suicide in 1966, the year the film came out.
Is this a joke, or did they all die?

There is no way out of here. It will be dark soon. There is no way out of here.
Three people? Suicide pact? I can’t find where it says that Opal.
All I know is the guy who played Torgo died:

Oh I found it. In the user comments. Whoa.
Assuming that the dates of death are true (the lack of any other information on these actors makes me a tad skeptical) maybe it was a Manos-related suicide pact. But I haven’t heard about the other two in any other MSTie info site.
Maybe it was just due to living in El Paso.

Well I was kinda joking about the “suicide pact” but according to IMDB the following all died of suicide in 1966:
Diane Mahree
Joyce Molleur
John Reynolds (I)

Oh I figured you were kidding, Opie. But there’s nothing funny about this:
