Shelley and Pete
Just posted on Youtube by the US National Archives: "Shelley and Pete (...and Carol) from 1980. 23 minutes. Shelley and Pete are in High School and having sex. Then they get pregnant and their lives are ruined. (Their lives were already pretty terrible as it was the '70s, which I can tell you from personal experience sucked."

Leviathan (1989)
Leviathan (the 1989 version) is the only movie I've ever wanted to get my money back from. I mean it is BAAAAD. Better to forget about it, so I did. Now I hope you'll dare to watch this horrid piece and decide to riff it.

Demon Cop
Yes. That Demon Cop has a mullet. Yes you can see that his hands are in bulky, not very well-made gloves. The action and acting is incredible---y lame.
1990- it has much in common with other cheesy 90s action films.17 votes -
Carnivale in Rio
It's Arnold Schwartzenegger celebrating Carnivale in Rio just being himself in front of a camera. Plus he teaches a Portuguese translator English by using a carrot.

Old Battle of the Network Stars Episodes
In the 70's and 80's Battle of the Network Stars featured everybody from Little House on the Prarie actors to Vicki Lawrence from Mama's Family! Oh, and who could leave out our mellow truck driving invisi-watch 70's buddy: Ben Murphy! I'm not joking; he was on there!!!

My Pet Monster
An hour long, straight to VHS promo for a hot toy in the mid 80s. My Pet Monster was a huggable doll with an angry face, but in this movie he becomes a gigantic freak show that probably traumatized countless kids, with a back story about statues and magic and all kinds of nonsense.

My Little Pony: Equestria Girls – Rainbow Rocks
In the human world parallel to Equestria, a reformed Sunset Shimmer is ostracized by most of Canterlot High School despite her efforts to atone for her past bullying. Her only friends are the counterparts of Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy and Rarity, who have formed a rock band called "the Rainbooms" to participate in the school's upcoming musical showcase. The five girls discover that the magic left over from Princess Twilight Sparkle's crown has given them the ability to grow pony-like ears, tails, and wings whenever they play their instruments.
Hoping to make a fresh impression, Sunset gives a…

Hypnotic eye
A creepy hypnotist movie, perfect for riffing. One of the first scenes a cop questions a badly burned woman. She appears to die ( although she's returns later in the film) as the doctor pulls the sheet over her head, the cop remarks " it's probably just as well. "
Later in the film we see that that creepy hypnotist secretly plants suggestions to gorgeous women, that they visit his dressing room, alone, at night. And what does he do with them?! What any red blooded man would do when a woman is completely in his power, and will have…

The Hateful Eight
Not the best of Tarantino. It might be too long (one version of the film has an intermission) and did we need the flashback? But anyway, lots of long drawn out, silent scenes makes it good for Riffin'.

Somewhere Tomorrow
This is an early 1980s supernatural teen romance starring a young Sarah Jessica Parker and her annoying singing voice. SJP's character, Lori, is upset that her mother is remarrying a few years after her father's death. She witnesses a plane crash and speaks with one of the two survivors, a young and handsome (I mean, by early 80s standards, I guess) man named Terry. Soon, Lori learns that Terry actually died in the crash, but that's ok, because his ghost keeps following her around spouting off inspirational crap to help her cope with her father's death. Along the way, they…

Marathon
Ok, so I am not suggesting a movie to riff per sey. What I am suggesting is that you guys do a marathon just like MST3k.
Of coarse you don't do one on Thanksgiving as not to impede on MST3k. But maybe do a marathon on either Halloween or Christmas (or maybe both!)
This is what you guys would do:
First, provide a list of movies that will be in the marathon so that way if there any that the customers have not purchased yet, they can do so
Next, you would make bumpers and host segments introducing the marathon…2 votes -

Astro Boy
From the guy who gave us the Diary of a Wimpy Kid movies, this animated film is a less than stellar modern adaptation of the famous robot boy who was to manga what superman was to comics.
Reasons to riff:
1. Nicolas Cage
2. Eugene Levy
3. Nathan Lane15 votes -

Space Master X-7
1958 B&W scifi about a space fungus brought back to earth on a rocket ship. Soon people are dying from the dreaded "blood rust." This is made of the finest grade B cheese, nice and stinky. I saw this in the theater as a small kid and for weeks I lived in terror of the creeping blood rust.

The Boy Who Saved Christmas
If you need an idea for your next RiffTrax Live holiday show, this is amazing. Saw pieces of it getting ready for guest on Christmas day. It's about Santa's evil twin, Atnas, kidnapping Santa and trying to undo Christmas, but one brave boy and his friends help foil his plan. If the plot isn't cheesy enough for you, let me mention the final fight scene, with Atnas shooting lightning from his fingertips while Santa keeps rubbing his nose to shoot green lasers from the fur trim on his hat (I kid you not).
