The Public Pays
This 1936 short film about old-timey racketeering in the milk industry is just begging to be riffed, especially when it features characters with names like "Drunken Hood Who Knocks Over Milk Wagon" and "Dickman, Milk Company Executive." And yet it still managed to win an Academy Award...

Electric Dreams (1984)
A bizarre little film with current relevance since folks are talking a lot about AI. In this movie, and I use that term loosely, an architect competes with an 80's era AI for a woman's affections. Weird on many levels, it kind of foreshadows modern phones and tablets.

Mr. Frear's Ears
A series of interstitials on Nickelodeon, Mr. Frear is basically a younger Norman Krasner for the 1990s, albeit in much smaller doses and lacking a trademark groan of anguish. The Phone Book skit in particular is perfect riffing material, given how weirdly out of place they seem today.

The Alien Factor
The Alien Factor has a kind of Manos Meets Boggy Creek thing going for it. Was there ever a sunny day in whatever swamp they filmed it in? (even though a swamp in no way figures into the plot.) I'm surprised we can't see the fly encrusted 100w bulb hanging from a single wire all the way through this thing.

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.

One Down, Two to Go (1982)
What do you get when you make a film starring SHAFT (Richard Roundtree), SLAUGHTER (Jim Brown), HAMMER (Fred Williamson) and BLACK BELT JONES (Jim Kelly)?

Friday Foster
Pam Grier's 11th and final film for American International Pictures (all made between 1971--1975).
The film is based on a newspaper comic strip of the same name by Jim Lawrence and Jorje Longeron that debuted January 18, 1970 and ran in 80 to 100 papers. It was the first mainstream comic strip with a black lead character. The end credits thank Chicago Tribune Syndication, which licensed the comic strip to newspapers. Ironically, the movie was released after the strip ended in 1974.

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

The Fan (1981)
Not the 90s film with Wesley Snipes of the same name! This is a poorly made horror from 1981 with legendary actors James Gardner and Lauren Bacall. (How did they get in this???) Bacall plays a stage actress who gets stalked.
James Gardner called this the worse film he was ever in.9 votes -
Night Into Day
A low budget nuclear disaster film that is perfect for riffing.

Get Christie Love!
This stereotypical blaxplpitation wad of cheese is chock full of sexy undercover persuasion, poorly lit night time film sequences, unlikely scenarios with even more unlikely outcomes, and criminals my grandma could easily drop on a bad arthritis day. The poorly executed kung fu moves seem to riff themselves. Inappropriate sarcasm and overly accentuated lines only add to the cheese factor.

Don't Be A Victim, BE ALERT!
A safety advice video from 1994. The material is dated and some information can't be used in today's environment due to the advancement of technology. However, there are some parts that are Riff ready thanks in part to some cheesy acting and how its presented and narrated.
Example:
There's a scene where a woman is watching through a window while a guy tries to get through the backgate. He looks like he's trying to use hedge trimmers to break the gate, but the acting shows that the gate isn't locked to begin with and he's just shaking the door.
