1. The Astounding She Monster (1957)

   My favorite MST3K riffing episodes, were the ones involving old black & white horror and science fiction movies from the 1950's and 1960's. The worse the movie was, the better the fun factor. You knew that whatever the movie director's were envisioning, it wasn't anything like what you were seeing on the screen.
   The Astounding She Monster starts out with sub-standard special effects, and begins with narration that is like an omnipotent being watching and judging the drama as it unfolds and giving you some useless information to set up the story, that really doesn't add much to the drama except to make the already incoherent script even more incoherent.
   
   The "Astounding She Monster" who is an alien from another planet, pretty much just walks around a lot in a shiny blurry spandex body suit. As she moves she looks like she's a model walking on a catwalk, and I kept hearing the "Right Said Fred" song in my head "I'm Too ****" being played every time she appears. She does have the touch of death, so that's at least one cool thing that she has going for her, and I am not going to give away the startling surprise ending to this movie, that I never in a million years could see coming. The most surprising thing for me in this movie was that they didn't have (?) when they blessedly concluded the movie with (The End), even though they do suggest that someday in the future, a visit from another astounding she monster might be possible.

   This movie is the reason why I have always, and will continue to: Keep Watching the Skies.

   As a mercifully short film, "The Astounding She Monster" should provide plenty of riffing moments to skewer with the razor sharp wits of the "Truthsayers" known as Rifftrax. Have fun boys (and girls too).

3. Liquid sky

   Cheesy 80’s movie where you learn that every telescope has a bullseye equip. Characters are androgynous, and it gets confusing at time. Perfect for a riff. Aliens come done to score heroine, but realize orgasms are more potent.

4. 10,000 BC (2008)

   Roland Emmerich remakes a Ray Harryhausen movie. Only with less believable effects. And no Raquel Welch. Or even Will Smith. And it's Roland Emmerich writing it. Yes, and he's still obsessed with Stargate.

5. The Creation of the Humanoids (1962)

   In a post holocaust society, robots take it on their own to help the dying human race by giving them android bodies.
   This really makes me question the whole "robot intelligence" concept.

6. Yog, Monster from Space (1971)

   A militant astro-quaser bent on world domination,takes possession of a Jupiter-bound rocket and lands on a Pacific island. -Fright Night
   All I know is that it's Japanese, it takes place in space, it's probably cheesy as hell. Those are all solid justified reasons for riffing this movie.

8. Speed Racer (2008)

   I'm not sure how this one hasn't been mentioned yet. This '08 live-action version of the old cartoon starring Matthew Fox seems ripe for the pickin'. Personally, having grown up with the cartoon, the movie was even worse than I expected - and my expectations were pretty low. Not only is there a nice cannon to pull jokes from but the live-action version of this ridiculous concept begs to be made fun of at every turn. Let the bad driving puns begin!

10. Rappsittie Street Kid: Believe In Santa

    By far the worst CGI television Christmas special EVER!
    With an all-star cast including Mark Hamill, Jodi Benson (Ariel, Little Mermaid), Paige O'Hara (Belle, Beauty and the Beast), and Nancy Cartwright (The Simpsons).
    You have to see it to believe it!

11. Garlic is as Good as Ten Mothers

    It's 51 minute foodie documentary from 1980 (and it looks it too).

    It's a love story to garlic (which as depicted wasn't really a big trend in the US back in the 1970s and earlier if you believe the talking heads).

    One talking head mentions that he believes that vampires are real. Werner Herzog also makes a cameo.

    Lots of dialogueless food prep providing plenty of space for riffing.

13. Ghostbusters + Ghostbusters 2

    Okay, these movies aren't really bad, but honestly, I would LOVE to see Rifftrax's take on these cult classics; four men busting supernatural beings like catching Pokémon. Plus with a new Ghostbusters movie coming out this summer, it would be a perfect way to get the hype up for it.

15. Spectre

    The movie where a villain that has an organization that has intertwined itself into every facet of life as we know it, took one guy a few decades to do. Freemasons should be ashamed of themselves.

16. Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 2

    This movie was bad enough for me to never want to watch again, but the abundance of long pauses and confusing dialogue makes it a perfectly riffable fit.

17. Cage (1989)

    Every aspect of this film is right in your wheelhouse:

    Cast features MST3K alum Reb Brown (Big McLargeHuge) and Lou Ferrigno (in the role I am pretty sure inspired Ben Stiller's character in Tropic Thunder).

    The premise is that Lou saves Reb's life in 'Nam, but gets shot in the head doing so and ends up a manchild. So, Reb takes care of Lou--they open a bar with Lou as the bouncer. Complication: some scumballs see how Lou is huge and gullible and suck him into an underground cage fighting scene. Reb is forced to fight to save Lou (or 'Billy' as Reb shouts over and over with his voice like a bucket of broken glass.).

    The smartest reason to riff this movie is that it is funny in its own right, like other imminently re-watchable dear friends of mine: Terror from the year 5000, Twilight, Space Mutiny, and Glitter.

    Thanks for the chance to make a request. And thanks for so many awesome movie nights!

18. Steel Dawn

    This 1987 sci-fi action movie stars Patrick Swayze as a sexy apocolyptic swordsman and has everything you love to riff- pithy dialogue, desert wasteland outposts, threatened castration, a kid, a dog, big hair, every bad guy ever, and tons of fist pounding, sword fighting goodness, also something about irrigation plans -I can't believe it took me 28 years to finally see this Version of Mad Max- here's the link-

19. Lawnmower Man 2: Jobe's War

    Here lies a movie experience that could only be slightly surpassed by Satan farting in your face while your mouth's open.

    1) The movie was apparently so weak that they couldn't get even one of the original actors to star in it.

    2) Like so many modern movies, it relied on excessive CGI to supplant meaningful storytelling.

    3) It has the kid from the Last Action Hero.

    Thanks guys! I am, and will always be a huge fan!
