The Twonky
It's like Pod People, but in the 50's, Disney-fied and it's a TV doing all the stupid, trippy stuff. I'm surprised this has never been riffed.
Here's the movie:

(I've got a ton of shorts to send you guys [I found a goldmine of crappy shorts!], but have been lazy with my rufftrax, due to all this MST stuff going on. I may just throw them in a message to your FB or something. You've used some of my suggestions this year, which I am VERY grateful for!
Cheers!)

Honestly can't think why they haven't riffed this one already. It's perfect for Rifftrax. Come on, guys!

'The Twonky' was a movie that seemed to be on TV every month when I was growing up in Canada in the 70s. I don't understand why - it's really a terrible movie. Hans Conried looks as if he's constantly smelling farts, and the guy that plays Coach Trout - well, I don't know if he really was an actor at all, he was so terrible. The "special effects" are lamer than 'Plan 9 From Outer Space'. It's just ghastly. I know that comedies tend not to be riffed, but this is SO unfunny, I don't think it can reasonably qualify as a comedy. It's just bizarre and weird.
