Cameron's Closet
Its Halloween time and I saw a movie called 'Cameron's Closet' pop up in my suggestions in Amazon Prime. After watching the first 11 minutes and one of the funniest decapitation scenes ever put to film, I knew this would be Rifftrax gold.

I second this. The movie is just gloriously bad and pure 80s horror gone wrong. The film takes itself seriously, even during some of the most ludicrous scenes. There are also nods to various themes and ideas that are never fully developed or explained.
For example, the brother is killed while he's taking a shower. How did the demon trick him? By pretending to be his sister (Cameron's mom) and that said sister wanted to play "Redneck Relatives", if you get my drift. Then there's this whole thing about seagulls. Which may just be a symbol of a hypnotic trick but may not be, as there's this cop that sees the same seagulls? And they may have been seagulls together in a past life?
You'd think that this would have been better done, given that the film adapted a book by the guy who wrote The Howling. It's still a guilty pleasure watch, so I think that this will hit that sweet riffing spot for many since it's entertaining on its own and riffs will only enhance it.
