Garlic is as Good as Ten Mothers
It's 51 minute foodie documentary from 1980 (and it looks it too).
It's a love story to garlic (which as depicted wasn't really a big trend in the US back in the 1970s and earlier if you believe the talking heads).
One talking head mentions that he believes that vampires are real. Werner Herzog also makes a cameo.
Lots of dialogueless food prep providing plenty of space for riffing.

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.

The Pirate Movie (1982)
Christopher Atkins returns where Blue Lagoon left off. Wearing the same loin cloth.
A movie so bad, that it would've made the 1983 Pirates of Penzance film have an almost guarantee to win best picture and Rex Smith as best actor.
One of the reasons Kristy McNichol became a lesbian.

Low budget SciFi
After flying through a mysterious thunderstorm, cocky F-16 pilot Tracer gets thrown back in time to the medieval kingdom of Deo. It is a dark time for the rebellion--err, the people of Deo; the evil Overlord (that's his name) has killed the king and taken over the kingdom, and only Tracer can stop him and help the young Prince Jaznar take his rightful place as king. Halting dialogue, awkward acting, cardboard sets and Renaissance Fair costumes are abundant.
My friends and I discovered this gem shortly after it was first released, and we said from the very first viewing that it would be a slam dunk for MST3K. I urge you guys--and my fellow forum lurkers here--to check it out!

The Finishing Line
This is a seriously F***ed up British PSA about children playing on railroad tracks. This kid daydreams about holding his own Olympics on a train crossing. Dozens of children get killed. It's both horrifying and surreal.

Maximum Ride
This is a movie based on a Young Adult novel - as if there aren't enough of those.
The plot is flimsy,
The acting is poor,
The CGI is so bad, you won't believe it came out in 2016.23 votes -

Hail Ceaser
Anthony Michael Hall's magnum opus Hail Ceaser in which he directs and stars. The only feasible camparison for this piece of work is a one Corky Romano, and that is a name I don't use in vain. It's currently in the M Plex roration of films so give it try if you think you can take it.

The Meateater (1979)
I've seen some stinkers in my day, but this one takes the hotdog.
Shoe salesman Mitford Webster, unhappy with his mediocre life decides to buy an abandoned movie theater (it's what he's always wanted) and moves his family to the small community where the theater is located, the realtor Mr. Knuckle informs him the former theater owner only showed.....PORNOGRAPHY!....Pornography?
His wife Jan Webster wasn't too keen on the idea from the start, there was some security in being a shoe salesman, his two brats, Ricky Webster the albino skateboarder, and daughter Jeannie Webster who looks a bit like classic film actress Jean Harlow are employed at the family business against their will.What they didn't know was the theater came with an unwanted guest, a crazy old projectionist named Ben (the Meateater) who looks a lot like Riff Raff and was half burned decades earlier from a theater fire, he now lives in the theater creeping around like a phantom, living off dead rats and popcorn, and spends his spare time killing the patrons and new employees and watching old movies starring his love-obsession Jean Harlow...aaaah the plot thickens.
Ben has a stuttering twin brother Noah who lives in the crack-house across the street, who often tries to warn the family of the unwanted guest, but to no avail until it's too late, daughter Jeannie is kidnapped by the delusional old coot who thinks she's Jean Harlow come back from the dead, his stuttering brother confronts him only to get pushed off the rafters to his splattery death below. (Jeannie then purposely puts her hands in the brain goop, then freaks out about it).
Oh well, back to selling shoes, I was pretty good at it.Everyone is either talking about beef by-products or eating them, (everyone but the Meat-eater that is), whether it's hotdogs, beef-sticks, sausage and the like, even some corporate name dropping and advertising, like Jimmy Dean, McDonald's & Oscar Mayer.
The best characters in the film is the uncouth Lt. Wombat who points a lot when he talks, constantly chowing on slim-jim's and shaves his mustache off halfway through the film (?)Youtube link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BvFQTtgh28w

German Forklift safety training video
Very over-the-top German forklift safety training video that really drives the point home. Very dark humor. German with English subtitles, but they're really not necessary, as you can figure out what's going on without them.
Enjoy...

Pray For Death 1985
Please do Pray For Death. I saw parts of this movie when I was a little kid and was finally able to track it down 20 years later. It's got "RIFF ME!" written all over it.
Quick run down: After a peace loving Japanese immigrant and his family become victims of a crime syndicate, a master ninja emerges and seeks revenge.

"A Touch of Magic" https://archive.org/details/TouchofM1961
"A Touch of Magic" is the MPO produced, GM financed sequel to "Design for Dreaming." Nuvena herself , Thelma "Tad" Tadlock stars in it once again, and it is just as bonkers. 1961.

Santa and the Three Bears
"Pirates World Presents"! And with those three magical words, our descent into animated madness begins.
This cartoon, using Hanna-Barbara-style animation, tells the story of an old, pudgy park ranger who goes around on a Jazzy, telling two bear cubs and their mom (Papa Bear either died or ran off, not clear) about Santa. There's a lot of talk about hibernation, and, of course, none about Jesus (although whether JC existed in this world of sentient, talking animals is unclear). The soundtrack is full of terrible songs, sung incoherently, primarily by a woman standing either too close to, or way too far away from, the microphone.

Ruckus
Somewhere in the early/mid-80's, I randomly discovered this little gem while cycling through the dozen or so channels available via cable at the time. (I guess Tales of the Golden Monkey wasn't on that night.)
After watching it once, it became one of those movies that get burned into your brain no matter how many witch doctors, voodoo priests and gypsy hypnotists you beg to remove it.
Since the trailer tells you absolutely nothing about the plot (which you can see for yourself right here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8tS4UeLHmoI ), I'll give you the Cliff Note's version. Or you can just read about it and save yourself some scrolling:
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0084611/?ref_=nv_sr_1
Kyle Hanson (Dirk Benedict, post-Battlestar Galactica & pre-A-Team) is a Vietnam Vet with one of the worst cases of PTSD ever seen, who just wants to eat a hamburger. But when local small town bullies with the most small town bully names ever (Cecil, Bubba, Homer, etc) interrupt his dinner plans, he goes full-tilt, Rambo-on-a-meth-binge crazy on them. Oh, and he hooks up with Linda Blair too.
So why should this movie be Riffed?
- You get to see Dirk Benedict lose his damn mind for roughly 93 bug-eyed, scream-filled minutes.
- Anything with Linda Blair in it is ripe for a Riffing.
- Dirk Benedict and Linda Blair IN THE SAME MOVIE!
Seriously, this movie is so full of Riff-worthy pauses inbetween doses of bad dialogue, Linda Blair just wandering in and out of scenes, and shots of Dirk looking like his head is about to explode (see pics for an example), they should've just filmed it and sent it straight to you!
I shall leave it to you to decide its Riff worthiness.

"In the future, a kickboxer and a robot lead a revolution against ruling cyborgs."
As beautiful as it sounds and has Lance Henriksen as the bad guy and stars Kris Kristofferson and Lady kickboxer Kathy Long!
This was originaly intended to be the sequel to the Van Damme movie Cyborg! Post apocalyptic adenture with dueling Cyborgs and women kickboxers, what more could you want?
Oh is the vhs ripped trailer, sadly not the best quality.
