blind fury
Blind Fury (1989)
"A blind Vietnam vet, trained as a swordfighter, comes to America and helps to rescue the son of a fellow soldier. "
Six words: Rutger Hauer as a blind samurai

extraordinary tales
An animated anthology of several classic Poe stories.
Why it should be riffed:
Bella Lugosi narrates "The Telltale Heart"
Frequent pauses in bad, over-dramatic dialogue (especially during "The Fall of the House of Usher")
Edgar Allen Poe is inexplicably portrayed as a raven having an argument with Death (spoiler alert!: Death wins)

Cop Rock - Pilot
Come for the jury sending a man to jail by singing, stay for the selling of babies!
With the complete series of Cop Rock finally out via the good folk at ShoutFactory, it seems like good Business Synergy™ to riff the pilot episode of the most bizarre primetime Cop Show since the gritty 80's reboot of Mayberry R.F.D. where Barney Fife went under deep cover to break up cocaine rings.

Small Soldiers
A new line of toys (Sorry... Action figures) come with a microchip that actually makes them sentient. A boy gets one and becomes the center of a rebellion among the ranks.
1 - War technology used to make toys. What a tweest!
2 - Hippy (toys) vs Warmonger (toys)
3 - The Fimple Family and more Dave Ryder nicknames. (Actual character names) Chip Hazard. Kip Killagin. Butch Meathook. Brick Bazooka. Nick Nitro.34 votes -
American Werewolf in Paris
This movie features the song "Mouth" from the band Bush. The chorus if the song is, "nothing hurts like your mouth!" They obviously never saw the movie! After watching it, my eyes hurt waaaay more than my mouth.

Once Upon a Time
The ABC Disney-inspired drama has been on the air for 5 complete seasons. Any and all fictional characters, mainly Disney, have been represented in either an extension of their standard story or a complete reimagining. I mean, Captain Hook is a good guy! They continue to introduce new characters while following series regulars, who are alway up for saving the day. I was a huge fan of Lost so the Easter eggs and casting keeps me coming back. This is a program that is ripe for riffing. Perhaps give it the Game of Thrones treatment and try out the pilot…

Cleopatra
The Elizabeth Taylor-Richard Burton extravaganza that broke two marriages and almost destroyed a movie studio when Liz was the first to demand a million dollars for starring in a picture. Thrill as Liz & Dick pseudo-bonk each other in public while wearing tacky 60s sexy-Egyptian costumes.

Repulsion
Roman Polanski's ode to psycho-sexual breakdown, starring the already psychotic looking Catherine Deneuve. Shot in blk/wht, early 60s. Favorite part: when the walls sprout arms and start grabbing poor young Cathy in the hallway of her own apartment.

Any Andy Sidaris movie.
The films are just stupid fun movies. Not well acted, with ridiculous plots, Erik Estrata, Pat Morita, Geoffrey Moore (Rogers son!) and, oh yes, topless playmates.
I just think it would be something that the guys could really riff on.7 votes -
Empire Records

SoulTaker for (RiffTrax live)
Soul-taker happens to be one of my favorite Mystery Science Theater 3000 episodes and seeing you guys Doin Time Chasers it brought back a lot of good memories for me.
Plus if it ever goes out of print over at the Shout Factory we don't have to worry about it being gone.
Emilio Estevez is the star of this film LOL

Spirit in the woods
Kinda like the Blair Witch Project... Minus any believable emotion, acting skill, entertainment, or interesting dialogue... So exactly like the Blair Witch Project only somehow worse.

Alexander the Great (1968 release starring William Shatner and Adam West)
Captain Kirk and Bruce Wayne in togas. Such extremely short togas that the skirts on Star Trek [The Original Series] look downright Victorian.
The actors agreed it was fun to make but West says, “... it turned out to be one of the worst scripts I have ever read and it was one of the worst things I’ve ever done."
The 80-year-old Shatner has called the show “‘Combat!’ in drag,” referring to the World War II series that was made by the same producer, Selig J. Seligman.
West said about making it: “Four o’clock in the morning out in the…
