Ruckus
Somewhere in the early/mid-80's, I randomly discovered this little gem while cycling through the dozen or so channels available via cable at the time. (I guess Tales of the Golden Monkey wasn't on that night.)
After watching it once, it became one of those movies that get burned into your brain no matter how many witch doctors, voodoo priests and gypsy hypnotists you beg to remove it.
Since the trailer tells you absolutely nothing about the plot (which you can see for yourself right here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8tS4UeLHmoI ), I'll give you the Cliff Note's version. Or you can just read about it and save yourself some scrolling:

Kyle Hanson (Dirk Benedict, post-Battlestar Galactica & pre-A-Team) is a Vietnam Vet with one of the worst cases of PTSD ever seen, who just wants to eat a hamburger. But when local small town bullies with the most small town bully names ever (Cecil, Bubba, Homer, etc) interrupt his dinner plans, he goes full-tilt, Rambo-on-a-meth-binge crazy on them. Oh, and he hooks up with Linda Blair too.
So why should this movie be Riffed?
- You get to see Dirk Benedict lose his damn mind for roughly 93 bug-eyed, scream-filled minutes.
- Anything with Linda Blair in it is ripe for a Riffing.
- Dirk Benedict and Linda Blair IN THE SAME MOVIE!
Seriously, this movie is so full of Riff-worthy pauses inbetween doses of bad dialogue, Linda Blair just wandering in and out of scenes, and shots of Dirk looking like his head is about to explode (see pics for an example), they should've just filmed it and sent it straight to you!
I shall leave it to you to decide its Riff worthiness.
