The Lottery 1969
Among all the odd shorts that left people dead, this one left a huge WTF moment. Based on the original short story of the same title, and before the 1996 film. This shows how cruel and horrible traditions can be.

One Live Ghost
It's a comedy film from 1936.
It's not a great short but it's great for riffing material.
The short features a young Lucille Ball playing as a maid.

Iron sky 2
If you've never seen Hitler riding a dinosaur on a spaceship, nows your chance. Lizard people rule from the center of earth . Odd, funny and in color.

Owls Lords of Darkness
1983 short about owls; no not a rock band. Pretty interesting information, but the narrator, is pretty dull. It sorta has that Boggy Creek 2 and Buffalo Rider vibe.
Starts out at the beach, because we all know that owls are known for their beach nesting right? LOTS of mice were harmed in the filming of this short.IMDB https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1319534/plotsummary/?ref_=tt_ov_pl

Steamboat Willie
Yes the Mickey Mouse classic from 1928! It will be in public domain in several months. So what better way to honor it then riff it, back when we all loved Disney.

Cold Can Kill
A Royal Navy instructional film from 1972, my film collector friend picked this one from a dealer. He showed it at his home and now we all chant the film's title whenever someone falls in the water. Three reasons why it's riffable: The high frequency jumpscare of the title card warning COLD CAN KILL, the goofy Hanna Barbera-esque animation illustrating how alcohol will kill you if you have hypothermia, and the mention that the water "impregnates" your clothes.

Volton
This electrical safety video was made in 1990 by Edison Electric Institute. It's narrated by Volton, pure electrical energy, who takes you on a cool computer a animated journey through the power grid, and then shows you how to be safe around overhead and underground wires. Whenever someone gets shocked, you will hear Volton savagely snarl "GROUND!"

Kid Safe
This video was made in the 1980s and distributed by Triaminic and the American Academy Of Pediatrics. Its goal: to teach kids how to be safe when they're home alone. It was directed by Stuart Gordon, and the "little girl" named Kathy Tudor is played by Andrea Martin, who was 40 years old at the time. If you liked Martin Short playing a ten year-old in "Clifford" or Robin Williams playing a ten year-old in "Jack", this is the educational video for you.

Frozen Assets
A supposed "comedy" that the late film critics Gene Siskel and Roger Ebert called "the worst comedy ever made," the viewer gets tortured with a story about a bank executive (L.A. Law's Corbin Bernsen) who is sent to another bank to turn things around financially in order to earn a promotion to vice-president. But the bank Zach is sent to supervise turns out to be a rather...sticky...situation. This banks deals not in money but (you guessed it) SPERM! Double entendres galore as Zach trades barbs and butts heads with bank counselor Dr. Grace Murdock (played by future Lifetime movie mainstay…

Something Wonderful Happens
Something Wonderful Happens ia a 1957 short by General Electric pushing their "Live Better Electrically" campaign. But the sub plot of the boy Eric and his attraction to Kathy, a woman his mother's age, is downright creepy. https://youtu.be/rSFy2LKzFHk
