Nail Gun Massacre
Nail Gun Massacre is the perfect Rifftrax movie. Made during the slasher era when everyone was throwing a new hardware-using killer onto VHS, it's a horrible movie that has one thing that really makes it perfect.
All throughout the movie, the killer is very clearly male. Big, built, but wearing a leather jacket and motorcycle helmet while nail gunning people.
In the end, it's revealed that the killer is a woman. A very small, petite woman. Magically, she apparently grew five sizes every time she went a'killin. It's so hilariously awful as a reveal.
To add to this you get terrible framing/directing moments.
An actor falls off a tall conveyor machine in a quarry supposedly a hundred feet in the air...landing on the STILL VISIBLE pile of sand immediately below it.
A little girl goes to pet a wolf at a zoo. Shown in the inset petting the wolf, a huge, rugged male hand.
This movie is more gender-confused than Caitlyn Jenner making out with Pat from Saturday Night Live.
I also don't think it currently has distro. I'm not even sure it's been on DVD yet, definitely not Blu, so it might be a cheap pickup for you.

Possibly THE archetypal 1980s trash horror cheapie!

Adding my vote. This movie looks laughably absurd, even without the shiny RiffTrax commentary.

The repeated (and wholly inexplicable) gender-morphing of various characters in this movie makes "Caitlyn" Jenner seem staid and stable as a Baptist picnic, in comparison.

The '80s have a lot to answer for.
