Rescue Force
An action film from 1990 that seems to devote much of its time to characters calling one another on the phone to discuss the mission they're eventually going to go on. Why settle for one gruff, hard-nosed commander who's getting to old for this shit, when you can have three or four? Throw in some sexy female secret agents who like to have long conversations about how they like to spend their time off, and about 15 minutes of actual action, and you've got yourself a film.

Beyond skyline
Beyond the absurd plot and mediocre acting, this is a ridiculous film that obviously had a decent budget, the cgi effects are pretty good. Filled with "Go, go, go, go's!" and "Move, move, move, move's!" I knew that when the protagonist helped deliver a baby on a space ship in the middle of a fight scene, this movie was MADE for rifftrax!!

Chill factor
A box office dud all the way down the line. Staring already forgotten leads. A miscast villain. A plot straight out of a bad TV of the week movie. Forced "comedy". And lots of scenes of ice cream both showing and talking of it.

Something Completely Different 3 (This is my last (and best) something completely different idea.
I think that I have always liked the 'host segments' of MST3K as much, if not more, than I liked the movie riffing.
The host segments were done partially as a time filler, and partially as a buffer to begin and end the television commercials.
Rifftrax has been riffing movies and shorts for a long time now, (and doing a great job of it, I might add.), but isn't it time to get all of the riffers back in front of the camera, not emulating MST3K. but doing something completely different and original? Isn't it time? Isn't it?
Back in the day, there were a number of people who would acquire the American rights to old movies, (usually foreign), and redub them into English, and present them to English audiences in the movies, and many times the redub imports would go directly to the new media of television. Some entrepreneur directors would do the same thing, except that they would change the film's original story, film new scenes with American actors, and redub the foreign actors lines to fit into the new storyline and try to blend it in with the reshot footage. Director Jerry Warren did this a lot with mixed, (usually poor), results. I think that John Carradine was probably in most, if not every one of these cut and paste movies that was ever made.
Steve Martin used this idea brilliantly when he took scenes from a number of old black and white movies, made up a new storyline, filmed scenes that matched the film clips and he interacted with the actors in the old movie clips, blending the newly filmed footage scenes and actors. The result: a very funny murder mystery story that worked seamlessly. Steve Martin's 'Dead Men Don't Wear Plaid' is highly recommended viewing if you have never seen this very original, very funny movie.
I propose that Rifftrax try this same idea. Come up with an original movie plot, take dialog clips from different movies, or find one movie, and seamlessly blend their newly filmed footage with the movie's other footage, provide creative editing and pasting, some sound effects, some music if needed, and come up with a hilarious new original new movie.
This would require a lot of time, and expense, so if you think that this might be a do-able idea, you probably will need the backing and financial support of a large studio, like Comedy Central (welcome home) or Netflix, maybe even Amazon studios? I doubt someone like Universal, or Warner Brothers is open minded enough to even bother with something like this. They are too **** big and not open minded enough!
There is a lot of potential and possibilities with this seed of an idea, and it does need a lot of work, but could this be the dawn of a new era for Rifftrax,.
Could the riffers be reborn as actors and find their way back in front of our television screens?
Vote yes for Rifftrax to once again become the actors that they were destined to be and take comedy to heights never before imagined.

Treasure of the Four Crowns
The movie follows J.T. Striker, a Soldier of Fortune (Tony Anthony), who has been hired to assemble a group of professional thieves to retrieve the gems which are hidden inside two of the remaining four Mystical Crowns. Striker braves a mysterious magical cave in which skeletons and spears appear and jump out at him. He discovers a scroll in one of the crowns in the cave, which tells him that the fourth crown had disappeared long ago. He denies that the gems are magical or even valuable. He succumbs to the belief eventually and sets off to find the last two crowns, which are being held inside a heavily guarded compound that is the home of a cult led by the evil Brother Jonas. Striker's team suffers casualties from booby traps as it performs a dangerous acrobatic commando raid on the room where the crowns are kept. Striker retrieves the gems from the two magical crowns, and the magic makes his head literally spin. His face becomes half deformed, like that of Two-Face. Striker shoots fire from his fingers, melting the henchmen, their weapons, and Jonas. After, the film cuts to a shot of a boggy swamp, where a large pile of slimy brown sludge rises from the swampy water. A head like that of a moray eel with crystal blue eyes shoots towards the screen for a 3-D effect, setting up for a sequel that never happened.

Chasing Dreams (1982)
This is a terrible movie that is legendary with some of my family and became a regular viewing on summer vacations. The box heavily advertises Kevin Costner in one of his earliest appearances, but he's only really in it for a couple of minutes. Otherwise, it's a crappy coming of age movie about a kid playing baseball. It's the baseball movie that Costner seems to have actively avoided. Nonsensical plot, bad acting, poor cinematography, this thing would be a great movie to riff. We used to do it as kids all the time.

Trapped by Television (1936)
An inventor looking for backing for his brand new television invention gets involved with a crooked businessman and gangsters who try to steal his invention, which everyone later regretted when commercials started appearing.
Television was in it's infancy in 1936 and not many people knew much about it in this hokey very dated sci-fi movie.29 votes -

Nightmare in Blood (1977)
Made by well known 'Horror Host' John Stanley, this movie was made as an homage to horror movies with good intensions, but good intensions don't always make for a good horror flick. (Ask Ed Wood!)

The Necromancer
This is a new feature film / vanity project which bafflingly saw wide release despite awful production value/effects/acting/camera work/colouring/etc...
It's a comedy goldmine, and possibly some kind of fraud, as the director appears to host his own film festivals are awards his own material.
It's really incredible something like this still gets made let alone released!
