invisible sister
Disney movie about a typical neglected genius, Chloe, who inadvertently stumbles upon the formula for invisibility while trying to identify SUGAR. Even weirder, a moth turned invisible by the formula escapes Chloe's garage-lab and ends up getting drank by her older, popular, obnoxious sister, turning her and everything she touches for some reason invisible to. Now Chloe and her sister must scramble to reverse the effects before they become permanent.

Lawnmower Man 2: Jobe's War
Here lies a movie experience that could only be slightly surpassed by Satan farting in your face while your mouth's open.
1) The movie was apparently so weak that they couldn't get even one of the original actors to star in it.
2) Like so many modern movies, it relied on excessive CGI to supplant meaningful storytelling.
3) It has the kid from the Last Action Hero.
Thanks guys! I am, and will always be a huge fan!

Android (1982)
Just like 'Star Wars' spawned countless intergalactic battle knockoffs (even worse than the Star Wars Holiday Special), the movie 'Alien' apparently spawned a lot of fugitives trapped in space with psychotic aliens, androids, entities, pirates, used car salesmen... you get the drift.
Basically here's the plot which would do both Dr. Forrester and his mother, Pearl proud:
Apparently somewhere out in space, Dr. Daniel, and his shy, cumbersome assistant, Max, conduct 'illegal' experiments with androids, and I don't mean forcing them to watch bad movies with some guy shot into space neither (after all, this sort of thing wouldn't occur for another decade or so..).
Anyway, before you can say, 'Let's go to the Honeycomb Hideout,' three fugitives from the law show up and crash the party. One happens to be female, whom Max is smitten. While one has serious anger management issues, and the other is paranoid, and you know THAT always GOES WELL in these type situations.
Anyhoo, as you'd expect, a lot of bizarre killing and fun stuff occurs with the Space Police arriving and with the most inexplicable ending that makes 'Santa Claus and the Ice Bunny' appear quite normal.
So why should RiffTrax take a sonic riffdriver with this film? Three reasons:
(1) The bizarrely-unintentional hilarious scenes: Case in point, when Max is learning about the birds and the bees from the space station's computer: the computer shows an image of a male and female, and as it's describing love between them, the images bump nipples as if that helps the process. Another comes from the fact one of the fugitives becomes psychotic at the drop of a hat. Seriously, as the group lands on the space station, though he pretends him and his crew are lost travelers (like ANYONE'S going to BUY that!), he's already plotting to off Dr. Daniel and Max and take over the station. While the other just gets paranoid over every little thing, and the females the only single person of the group who is sane.
How this film can take a relatively simple plot, then turn it into an incomprehensible space opera. Seriously, the movie does lull you into a false sense of security that this will be an exciting space adventure, but instead goes into this inexplicable thing about these fugitives bickering, until they get picked off one-by-one. And you actually root for their deaths just to get the plot moving along.
The strange ending which only leaves you wondering what in heck did you just watch. Not to tip off the ending itself, but about several minutes into the film itself, you'll realize something's not quite right with Max. And do you kind of predict what happens with the female android Max and Dr. Daniel. But then comes all these twists with makes you wonder if this was directed by a young M. Night Shamalyan.
Overall, this was one of the funner sci-fi knockoffs, because it really does go off the deep-end in plot and acting, not to mention the fact that you don't really see a lot of futuristic sci-fi killing in this.
To demonstrate what I'm talking about here's a link of the full film from YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jNG-jLnlQDA

Glen or Glenda
The Ed Wood film that started it all. This has it all! Ed Wood in drag, running bison (because nothing screams sex change like running bison), Lugosi as God, a hair-horned devil, pseudo-hermaphrodites, and then the movie really goes bat-shit crazy in the middle for no real apparent reason. This deserves to be riffed.

Jimmy, The Boy Wonder
This film is one of two children's features (the other being The Magic Land of Mother Goose) directed by Herschell Gordon Lewis, who is best known for his gory splatter films from the 60's such as Blood Feast and Two Thousand Maniacs. The film was shot in Florida in 1966, so it has that Ice Cream Bunny feel to it. This movie is all kinds of awful, but in a way that's perfect for Rifftrax.

Breakin'
I think this scene does it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BVrWDPi12zE
But It's got
1) the magic of the 80s
2) an odd take on what equals "drama", and
3) I think Rifftrax hasn't properly explored the Dance Film genre.41 votes -
Terror Squad (1987)
This is one of those perfect situations where the people making the film were genuinely trying to make something similar to other well liked films at the time such as Red Dawn... and a turd was produced instead... 75% of the film is a car chase scene that is filled with the most random and absurd situations. The chief of police, played by Chuck Conners (The Rifleman), even runs over a citizen and only exclaims his frustration as he drives on. A few of the biggest blunders in the film include: Blue mats are seen on camera when actors dive from explosions, Chuck Conners disappears for no reason with about a quarter of the film to go, one of the most deadly scenes is where the terrorists drive circles around a city hall building killing everyone and the citizens just stay in the circle, and at the climax of the film there is a bus chase scene that features a bus that continuously changes from a full size to short bus.
This film needs the RiffTrax treatment. After one viewing it should write itself!

It Follows
If your horror films don't have enough fear of sex, STDs or out running things by walking briskly, the this is for you. It's also great if you like being treated to multiple shots of the lead laying around and doing nothing (with or without her friends )

The Home Economics Story
A 25 minute "story" (read: ad) for the Iowa State home economics program. Dates from 1951, can be found in the Prelinger Archive. Prime fodder for Bridget & Mary Jo. The story talks about Kay's college experience, going through year by year, and showing clips of the classes from the perspective of 4 girls total. Everything a 1950's girl needs to know is covered from majors (everything from home economics to home economics), to life goals (using your degree to ultimately get married and raise children). Don't forget the assorted fun along the way (Home coming! Formals! Yay!)!
I watch it periodically as it is. I can't imagine how good it would be riffed.

Death Machine
This movie just begs to be made fun of. It stars Brad Dourif (the voice of Chucky from "Child's Play", Wormtongue from the "Lord of the Rings" series...Billy from "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest"...) as a sort of evil genius inventor at some giant corporation that everyone hates (though it's never really made clear exactly what they do except for make some sort of military technology).
It pays tribute to several good directors (who would have been justified in suing over use of their names) by naming characters Scott Ridley, and even more blatantly, John Carpenter, amongst others.
The whole movie is just an amazing confusing mess. You'll never be fully aware of what's supposed to be going on for more than a few minutes.
I think the line "I showed him my thing.....and it killed him" speaks for itself.
Oh, and Rachel Weisz is in it for like 30 seconds.This movie just begs to be made fun of.

Alien Opponent
An alien crash lands in a junk yard and an entire town of lunatic hillbillies try to kill it but mostly kill each other in hilarious ways. Features WWF legend Rowdy Roddy Piper as a gun toting priest, Jeremy London as basically a hung over version of himself, and a chiuauah named Taco.
This would make an ahazing live show.

Dragons of Camelot (2014)
It's kind of like if a High School Drama class took promising British Actors, made them fake American Accents and perform - on a high school drama class budget - through Wales.
Actually, that's exactly what it is...

The Specialist (1975)
...Not to be confused with that atrocious 1994 Sylvester Stallone film by the director of ANACONDA of the same name...
This movie finds itself being an R-rated episode of TV's "Matlock" or even "Night Court" due to randomly having brief nudity. Adam West gives it his all though and makes the proceedings quite energetic even when nothing much is happening.
