Robinson Crusoe on Mars
Paul Mantee, (no not Manatee!) and Victor Lundin in the worst dress and wig since Don Knotts in "The Shakiest Gun in the West" battle aliens who have apparently stolen the martian war machines and their sound effects from "War of the Worlds". Throw in the creepy appearance of Adam West as a ghostly, zombified astronaut and you've got a bona-fide sci-fi classic! Can you think of a better way to spend Friday?

13 Ghosts (1960)
This is a movie that's begging for a RiffTrax treatment! I'm surprised it hasn't been riffed already. P.S. It would be funny if they watched it with the glasses, and one of them was "too scared" to see the ghosts, and had to be told what was happening on screen. LOL!

The Worst Movie Ever
No, seriously. That's the title of the movie. It even has a trailer right here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RKTW-BxzTdU
It only grossed $11 off of one paid admission during a Saturday screening, and nobody attended the Friday one. More info can be found on its IMDb page: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1801113/

Buck Rogers in the 25th Century
The theatrically released pilot for the two season NBC series, Buck Rogers in the 25th Century. It's classically cheesy, from the time when everyone wanted to copy Star Wars' success.

The 27th Day
A 1957 science fiction in which all-powerful but highly moral aliens give five ordinary people the power to wipe out all HUMAN life on Earth, without damaging it in any other way (because the aliens are hoping for a new place to live), Starts out silly and gets sillier as it goes along. Apparently regarded as a classic, at least by those who value high-concept over common sense. Stars Gene Barry, the ORIGINAL Dr. Clayton Forrester. The trailer is here:

Miracle on 34th Street
With all the horrible Christmas Movies and shorts they've sat through, this Christmas they should give themselves a break and us a treat.

Miracle on 34th Street (1973)
Very specifically, the 1973 made-for-tv version of Miracle on 34th Street, with Sebastian Cabbot (Santa), David Hartman (Generic White Male), Jim Backus (Hapless Flustered Stuttering Management) and Roddy McDowall (as the "store psychiatrist").
This is admittedly tough, as it is not currently available anywhere I can find, so you would have to secure rights to use the film itself, as a "riffs only" release would not work. Also, it is in 4:3, and I know you guys tend to like the 16:9 stuff for RiffTrax, and you aren't likely to get a new transfer from film, so it's going to…

the 6th day
Riff it just because it's an Arnold Schwarzen-German flick, co-starring Michael Rappaport. Sucky sci-fi is your forte, so I beseech you: riff this movie. Danke!

Night of the Living Dead 30th anniversary edition.
For some reason to celebrate it's 30th anniversary, one of the original creators of the movie John Russo thought it would be awesome to include new scenes to this movie but they were filmed in 1998 and it didn't help that you keep jumping between scenes of the 1968 classic and these pointless scenes that should have never been filmed. It deserves Mike, Bill, and Kevin's riffing since they have done the 1968 original version.

Yeti: Giant of the 20th Century
Yeti: Giant of the 20th Century could be called an Italian rip-off of an Italian remake of King Kong. Released in 1977 and directed by Gianfranco Parolini, it offers many, many riff worthy moments. Take the industrialist who is lowered in from his private helicopter in an announcer's booth. Or his grandson Herbie, who for some reason is mute. Or the young granddaughter touching Yeti's breast. And let's not forget Yeti himself. During his frequent screaming jags, you'll swear you're looking at one of lead singers from Boston. In Yeti's most touching scene, he heals an injured family dog with…

Fall of the House of Usher (1979 TV Movie)
The early '60s version of Edgar Allan Poe's story starring Vincent Price was intentionally campy, and came out quite cool. THEY DID NOT NEED TO MAKE THIS HALF-FORMED VERSION!!!!!!! It's not just the stilted acting that's the problem; I'd say that the biggest problem lies in the casting. Martin Landau as Roderick Usher wasn't a bad choice, but did they really think it wise to cast Robert Hays, after everyone remembered him from "Airplane!"?! Or Ray Walston, after everyone remembered him from "My Favorite Martian" (not to mention "Fast Times at Ridgemont High")?! As for Charlene Tilton, I best remember…

Yeti: Giant of the 20th Century
Oh, yes, yes. A thousand times yes. At exactly 5 minutes in this movie starts thawing a yeti out of a block of ice... with flamethrowers. It's got dopey dialog, it's goofily acted, has a big derpy unscary monster, kids who I am pretty sure are going to get annoying and troublesome - probably release the monster or feed it after midnight or whatever - and it's Italian. Plus a bonus, according to the credits - The Theme "Yeti", played by "The Yetians".

The 7th Voyage of Sinbad
I just watched this and it hit me what a perfect movie this is for RifftraxThere are so many priceless moments in this early Ray Harryhausen movie. It is well acted but just so many Riffable moments. Like, when Sinbad escapes the cyclop's cage, and opens the door on top of the tiny Princess...Oops! And the dialog when Sinbad is wooing the Princess is totally over the top. I found myself riffing the whole way through, yet completely enjoying this movie
