Don’t Be a Sucker, 1943
An American who has been listening to a racist and bigoted rabble-rouser, who is preaching hate speech against ethnic and religious minorities and immigrants, is warned off by a naturalized Hungarian immigrant, possibly a Holocaust survivor or escapee, who explains to him how such rhetoric and demagogy allowed the Nazis to rise to power in Weimar Germany, and warns Americans not to fall for similar demagogy propagated by American racists and bigots.

Maradonia and the Seven Bridges
Imagine a fantasy film made on $200, and adapting not just any fantasy novel, but one from the "youngest published author", so she claims, and then said author stars in her own train wreck? Behold Maradonia.
Costumes ranging from KISS goth fairies to leopard print Gandalf cloaks, skies inexplicably pink or poorly green screened, and audio at best clear enough for slurred lines or drowned out by the Floridian wilderness.
It's hard to find the film except for Internet archive, which I've linked below, along with other samples from it. Love to see you guys do this!

wendigo (2001)
A movie that promises the dreaded Wendigo, yet it is more of a family being terrorized by back wood hillbillies. Then you finally see the dreaded creature and it is insanely laughable. The only downside is that it has a downer ending...

Midas Valley
1985 TV movie about Silicon Valley with France Nuyen (Code Name: Diamond Head) and Robert Stack. Lots of drama, old computers, and 80s cheese. It was a failed pilot for a prime time soap opera.

Amazing Ape
https://m.imdb.com/title/tt2014341/plotsummary?ref_=tt_ov_pl
This gem of a movie I found at the dollar tree. A diamond in the rough. An ape is broken out teaches a young boy with bone cancer he can be cured by stopping medication and using organic deodorant. Can’t make this shit up.
My fave Amazon review (thanks ‘Ben’):
You blew up my my ape based movie experience! DARN YOU ALL TO HECK!
Reviewed in the United States on April 13, 2017
Here are the basics of the story:The "government" doesn't want their special apes anymore. A science lab wants them for aggressive hammer and saw based…

Elizabeth Gail ~ Mystery At the Johnson Farm
I remember watching this one as a 13-year old and being unimpressed because the answer to the "mystery" was so plainly obvious. Apparently the film was never released on DVD. Doesn't even have an IMDb page.

The basement (1989)
Four strangers are summoned to the basement of a abandoned house by a mysterious entity known only as The Sentinel. One after another, they are forced to witness heinous deeds they have yet to commit - and which will damn them for all eternity. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2005367/?ref_=ttpl_pl_tt

Assassinaut (2019)
My friend, Drew Balduc, wrote and produced an Indy Film called Assassinaut. I thought he did a great job with it, but the reviews have been extremely critical. Sill, being a HUGE fan of RiffTrax, I thought it may be prime for something you could use. I'll leave the IMDB link below, and while it WAS free on Amazon Prime, I think it's back to being purchasable again now.

The witching of ben Wagner
Kid moves when parent gets a new job, but the job is ridiculous, and there's a hospital scene where family members get blamed. The family doesn't know how to be a family.

Lisa (1990)
Lisa is prime 1990 cheese and sleaze. The film follows a 14 year old girl who is obsessed with the idea of dating her perfect man. But her mom won't let her date until she's 16 because she's afraid of Lisa getting knocked up like she did when she was a teenager, bummer.
Her best friend tells her that if she isn't dating RIGHT NOW, then people will think she's weird. Never mind that the two of them are taking random polaroid shots of adult men that trip their fancy and catfish them into dates that they never actually attend.…

The Incredible Melting Man
This would be a great one to bring back for a live show! Definitely one of the most underrated MST3K episodes, at least in my opinion. Can't get much better than the running "Ted Nelson" joke, gets me every time I watch it.

One of the worst documentaries ever made, directed by an utter moron named Dinesh D'Souza.

The Duel (2016)
A soporific western starting Thor's little thunder Liam Hemsworth and somehow Woody Harrelson, it features plenty of opportunity for Riffing, from its Mississippi filming location trying to pass as the west Texas-Mexican border, from the obvious sand quarry being used as a desert, to the on-the-nose political commentary about rich white men hunting Mexican immigrants for sport. Then there is Alice Braga's character who just disappears. I guess she went looking for a better movie.

Danny Hall: The Killer Crab Elf
A serial killer who is half crab and half elf that can no longer swear, all his swear words come out as Christmas Slang.
Fight scene with two guys in giant sea creature outfits, one a giant crab and the other is a Redneck octopus. Very Troma Feel.

A Return to Salem's Lot (1987)
Movie that proves the rule, making a spinoff years later to a reasonably decent horror movie almost always ends up...terrible.
Synopsis: Joe Weber is an anthropologist who takes his son on a trip to the New England town of Salem's Lot unaware that it is populated by vampires. When the inhabitants reveal their secret, they ask Joe to write a bible for them
