Beyond the Time Barrier (1960)
Experimental pilot testing a new rocket powered craft (actually a Convair F-102 interceptor) manages to fly into the future and land at the now deserted airbase he left. He ends up in a city with people who are suspicious he is a spy and who want to keep him to procreate with the rulers daughter because the majority of the inhabitants are sterile. He manages to escape and return to his own time but "with consequences". Written by Jamie Bone

The Dark Secret of Harvest Home (1978)
This is a movie that literally makes you sorta understand The Star Wars Holiday Special - yes, I meant what I said there. The whole movie is on YouTube in parts, but I must warn you it's insane. Let me just list some of the things this film brings to your doorstep:
Double Credits (Credits that roll twice)
Donald Pleasance books on tape
Really weird festivals
A boy named Worthy
Horrible, vague story
Rituals in the woods
Terminator sunglasses
A creepy future-seeing little girl
And much more!
It's so ripe for the riffing.19 votes -

Zombie Apocalypse (2011)
SyFy channel nonsense of course.
Thinking zombies are the new black! And it has Ving Rhames and zombie tigers!

"Dark Side of Heaven"
Dark Side of Heaven is just, well, dreadful. Bad sets, bad special effects, bad costumes and the dialogue... There are plays put on by high schoolers that have better production values and acting in them. You know you're in trouble when they've dedicated the film to Stanley Kubrick. Truly awful.

Road Rage (2000)
IMDB link: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0250390/
Reasons to be riffed:
-- Along with countless other shenanigans, there's a flaming truck that just keeps trucking right along (it also flips over, hits who knows how many things, drives through a river...you get the idea).
-- Characters respond to situations in ways no sensible person would respond (such as continuing to drive a flaming truck, but really, this applies to pretty much everything every character does).
-- Female lead's behavior/dialogue goes like this:
Slow down! Can't you go any faster?!
Hurry and get us out of this! Pull over!
Don't touch me! Hold me!

Brain of Blood (1971)
In the early 70's, a knock-off, or something similar was created by Al Adamson (Dracula vs. Frankenstein) and Sam Sherman. Brain Of Blood is considered the black sheep of the Philippine gore series, mainly because Eddie Romero didn't direct, and, well, it was filmed in California, so it's an unofficial addition to the series. But whatever. Close enough. For something so shclocky and inept, we're working with a pretty decent premise, here. About the ruler of a fictional Middle Eastern country (Kaleed), who has recently discovered he is dying of a terminal disease. Amir fears for the future well-being of…

Skeeter (1993)
As the result of a corrupt businessman's illegal toxic waste dumping, a small desert town is beset by a deadly swarm of huge bloodthirsty mutant mosquitoes! This movie also has Tracy Griffith, Melanie Griffith's sister. I have posted a bunch of riffing candidates, but I feel that this movie in particular, is destined for riffing greatness.

Curse of the Faceless Man
Take all of the story elements from the original Mummy, change the location to Pompeii, instead of bandages enclose the guy in stone, created by a volcanic eruption 2000 years ago, a decedent of a woman he loved just happens to live nearby, which not only brings him back to life, but inspires him to see if he can rekindle the old flame once again. The filmmakers, unable to trust the script, acting, or directing incorporate an annoying narrator throughout the film to help you understand exactly what is happening at any given moment.
Some narration of the riffing variety…28 votes -
American Women - Partners in Research (Short)
https://archive.org/details/American1960_2
Short film that epitomizes sexist behaviors of the late 50's early 60's. With Chet Huntley (!) of NBC News. Made by a company here in Buffalo, NY. I can see Bridget & Mary Jo sinking their teeth into this one. In the public domain.

Desire (1993)
An erotic thriller that really wanted to be the next Silence of the Lambs
Maybe one for Mary Jo and Bridgette.

Transylvania 6-5000
For your riffing consideration: the movie that actors Jeff Goldbloom, Geena Davis, and Michael Richards, and Jeffrey Jones wished never existed! Plus, it features Ed Begley Jr and Norman Fell!
A largely plotless film involving two reporters looking for a scoop at Castle Frankenstein. Supposedly a comedy... it mostly hurts. Please, please, please riff the hell out of this film!

The Girl, The Gold Watch, and Everything
For your consideration... the very poorly-produced 1980 TV movie version of the quite good John D. MacDonald novel. Hapless protagonist Kirby Winter inherits a watch that can temporarily stop time. More and Mindy's Pam Dawber helps him avoid the evil villains trying to steal the watch. My vote would be to bring this out-of-print tv film back as a Rifftrax dvd release.
It stars Robert Hays... 'nuff said?
It's attempts to translate MacDonald's novel into a RomCom are torturous.
There are ample cringe-worthy moments of 1980 gender comedy.
