The Horn Blows at Midnight
The Horn Blows at Midnight
1) The star of this movie, Jack Benny talked as though it were the worst thing ever put to film, and got jokes for years about how the dead walked out of showings, they couldn't get people to watch it even by promising free dishes, the movie's director was now parking cars at Warner Brothers, et cetera.
2) For that reason that it was actively panned by its own star, it's an archetypical Bad Movie. The Plan 9 Before Plan 9.
3) Jack Benny was one of the biggest comedians of the 20th century, and as such simply too big to have escaped direct riffing thus far. (Jokes ABOUT him were fairly common in MST3K). This is especially since his movie career was no great shakes by comparison, and thus rife for a good riff.

La Moustache 2005
Ah the French! This movie is so captivating but confusing at the same time! A man has a mustache but he shaves it and after that you don't know what to believe- it might be hard to riff but just take a gander for the weirdness of it- it's a suspenseful but contemporary and is filmed in French with English sub-titles

God's Not Dead and God's Not Dead 2
OK, I know that the trailer just dropped for the second one, but given its themes of "Christians are the only good people in America," "Atheists, Muslims, and those who belong to other religions are evil," "The government is going to censor what your pastor says in sermons unless you vote for a candidate who calls himself a Christian" and "glossy horse manure." Not only do the movies hurt the Christian community with oversimplifications, fear-mongering, and outright lies, they're also really, really bad and unintentionally funny. Also, the second one is being released on April Fool's Day and starts Melissa Joan Hart who was famous for playing "Sabrina the Teenage Witch." With these movies, if irony were salad, there would be a lot of salad.

Hollywood Cop
There's a little kid who gets kidnapped and befriends the guard dog to escape and all the acting is on his shoulders and it goes terribly. There's oil wrestling and Cameron Mitchell needs Tums. Tis a beautiful failed attempt at a buddy cop movie from the maker of Samurai Cop

High School Hellcats (1958)
Thursday nights on TMC has become a late '50's/early '60's B-movie bonanza. This Thursday they showed your riff, "Attack of the Puppet People" followed up by my request. I think when you guys take a look at this gem, you will deem it riff-worthy quality bad film :-). When I saw the opening scene, I could imagine you three guys with your typical snarky commentary making it worth watching.
The three reasons to riff it:
It was released by American International… Need I say more?
Bret Halsey, is the great-nephew of Adm. "Bull" Halsey
Producer Charles "Buddy" Rogers was the husband of "America's Sweetheart", Mary Pickford.

Camel Spiders
Really? No one else has requested this 2011 treasure? Giant - about Chihuahua sized - spiders from the Middle East deviously hitch a ride home with Leo from Charmed, who is an Army guy, then proceed to tear this mother up! There are stranded annoying patrons at a road side diner, butt kicking soldiers, annoying people in a abandoned farm house for some reason, Pony Boy is also here, as the valiant sheriff, and last but not least - more giant exploding spider action out the wazoo than you can stomach! Very "Sharknado-ie" in my opinion- you have not lived until you've lived in fear of Roger Corman's CAMEL SPIDERS!!!!!
Here's the trailer

Trial of the Incredible Hulk
Lou Ferrigno and Bill Bixby meet Daredevil. It's not just a made for TV movie. It's a backdoor pilot for what would have been a strange and terrible Daredevil TV show.

Vampire Hookers
The tagline for this movie is "Warm blood isn't the only thing they suck!" John Carradine plays Pimp Dracula (not his actual name, but dammit it should be). Just watch...

The House In The Middle
1954 movie produced by the National Clean Up-Paint Up-Fix Up Bureau (your tax dollars hard at work). A movie about how cleanliness is a key to nuclear bomb survivability.

Death spa
This movie has everything. Horrible acting. Horrible dialogue. Horrible special effects. Horrible 80's workout wear. A... plot? Story? Maybe? It's hard to say.
We know some guy owns a gym/spa, and his wife is dead. Her ghost might be haunting the spa, or else her crazy brother is exacting revenge by hacking the spa's NASA-grade computer system that they totally have... it's unclear.
The spa also has a dungeon basement. This is important.
Nothing makes sense, it's impossible to care about any of the "characters," plot lines are introduced at random and abandoned immediately...

Taking Liberty - 1993
The movie takes place in 1778. Imagine Dr. Quinn Medicine Woman married The Patriot and had a child that was even stranger then them that they didn't like to speak about and you'd have the movie Taking Liberty. It was originally produced as the pilot of a TV show that never got picked up so Hallmark (from my understanding) released it as a movie for a very short period. It was to say the least a flop and is hard to find now. The setting is the American Revolution in 1778. In the movie the British control Manhattan (correct), Boston (they left in 1776), and already invading the South (doesn't happen until 1779). The hero is a man named "The Eagle" who is basically a Patriot style partisan fighter. He is the only man keeping the Revolution alive; for some reason. He has a bad of fighters that include a former slave who doesn't do much. A young guy who shoots the hats off of British soldiers which is all he ever does and for some reason this scares them. And an old man who is said to have fought with Blackbeard the pirate, who died 60 years before this takes place. He meets with a woman from a Loyalist family who falls in love with him from the moment they meet. "The Eagle" decides to spy on the British commander in NY, played by David Warner (of Quest for the Delta Knights fame) and he ends up getting captured. So, the Loyalist lady decides to try and free him and meets "Poor Richard", better known as Ben Franklin, played by David Ogden Stiers. He does a good job playing Franklin but he plays him more like he's your crazy uncle that you keep locked up in the basement to keep your neighbors from seeing him. The now former Loyalist lady now takes over "The Eagles" little band of fighters in an effort to free him. She pretends to be a German Baroness and gets sexually assaulted by David Warner. But it's too late as "The Eagle" is already being shipped to Britain so she takes his place as "Liberty" hoping one day to see her love again. The movie is full of "what were they thinking" parts, other than the general plot of course. Like the wheel chair ramp and guard rail going into the jail. The "back to one" disgusted look on the face of one of the extras as they went back to their starting points which wasn't edited out. The clothing which is more fit to God knows which time period, none of it the Revolution. Filled with a cheesy early 1990s goofy soundtrack. The both under and over acting. But the title is very apt because the entire movie took a lot of liberties with history, with acting, with what they think is a good plot, and with editing. They certainly were Taking Liberty with the entire thing.

Contamination .7
I saw this movie over the weekend on MGMHD channel and it was hilariously bad - the acting is some of the worst I've ever seen. The actors were more wooden than the radioactive tree roots that were attacking everyone. I kept saying to myself "this would be a perfect MST3K movie!"

Belle's Magical World
Aye, a bad sequel - a pointless, empty-headed sequel that manages to not only miss the heart and souls of the characters from the original, it can't even settle on a characterisation for any of them that's consistent within itself. But calling Belle's Magical World a bad sequel is underselling it so very much: this is a bad everything, so mindlessly divorced from anything that made its predecessor work that it barely even seems to be a continuation of the same world at all; more like a horrible dream that comes the night after watching Beauty and the Beast while in the throes of a particularly brutal fever.
