Day Without Numbers
Day Without Numbers (1958 short)
It's like Spring Fever, but for kids, staring a kid who can't tell time (It's 3 o'clock!!!) and a creepy puppet/genie that looks like Carol Channing?
I can't find the full clip online, so that might take a little work, but here's a lot of it:

War of the Gargantuas (1966)
I'm surprised this has not been suggested to RiffTrax. Especially since they used to riff a lot of Japanese monster films back during the MST3K Days.
As the title spells it out, two creatures called gargantuas decide to duke it out in Tokyo, Japan (man, I bet the city insurance premiums are astronomical). But throughout the film it's not the monsters, or bad acting, which has made this film so infamous.
Instead it's the scene where a female sings the song 'The Words Get Stuck In My Throat,' at a rooftop night club.
Everytime I watch this scene, especially after…

The Refreshing Look
A gem from the 50's in color. Coke vending machines! Boring guys in suits explain how they are designed and made and guys who look like service station attendant sell them. This needs a riffing 18 minutes long.

Fractures (2007)
Really horribly acted and edited Anthony Hopkins vehicle about a wife-murdering evil-genius (Hopkins) who tries to outsmart an newbie lawyer (Ryan Gosling). Every law movie cliche you can imagine, including "double jeopardy".

The Black Hole (1979)
Features: Silly robots voiced by Roddy McDowall and Slim Pickens (though one admittedly badass evil droid - Maximillian" - but otherwise...) special effects that haven't quite held up, confusing storyline/plot, a woman with a tinfoil hat, Ernest Borgnine in a turtleneck, and denouced by Neil deGrasse Tyson as the most scientifically inaccurate movie ever. What could be better for Rifftrax!
Actors include:
Maximilian Schell
Anthony Perkins
Robert Forster
Joseph Bottoms
Yvette Mimieux
Ernest Borgnine

Evil Things
Ok, so it's another 'found footage' movie.
Ok, so there's LOTS of driving.
Ok, so there's LOTS of walking.
But... the acting sucks. The cinematography is poor. The story is horribly written.How are we ever going to find our way back in this deep snow?
10 hours later... And what kind of animal made those tracks... in the snow? Tracks... in the snow? We're lost!!And yet, they never stop filming.
Never. Not. Filming.7 votes -

Robinson Crusoe on Mars
Paul Mantee, (no not Manatee!) and Victor Lundin in the worst dress and wig since Don Knotts in "The Shakiest Gun in the West" battle aliens who have apparently stolen the martian war machines and their sound effects from "War of the Worlds". Throw in the creepy appearance of Adam West as a ghostly, zombified astronaut and you've got a bona-fide sci-fi classic! Can you think of a better way to spend Friday?

200 Motels (1971)
Look, I LOVE Frank Zappa... but, have you seen this movie?
I know some of the MST3K alumni have (Kevin Murphy) as a handful of references to 200 Motels have been made throughout the years.

Christmas with the Kranks
A mirthless movie as fresh as last year's fruit cake, Christmas with the Kranks is a coarse, garish comedy that promotes conformity (Rotten Tomatoes)

Gunda
One of the worst bollywood movies of all time. It is hilariously produced with its low budget corniness and recycled plot. Not to mention the eye scarring wounds it can inflict on you while you watch their dance sequences. It is available with english subtitles.

Elysium
Please do Elysium!! Jodie Foster's acting is awful, script is awful, several unbelievably hilarious moments that are supposed to be serious, and the whole thing is very clearly immigration propaganda.

The Shining (1997)
So Stephen King thinks this 90 minute TV adaptation with TV's "Wings" star Steven Weber is a better film than Kubricks's masterpiece? I think it's long overdue he be taken down a notch. It has my award for "Most Random Casting": Rebecca De Mornay, Elliot Gould, Sam Raimi, Miguel Ferrer, Melvin Van Peebles, and of course, King himself (absolutely no ego in that). In television terms, it is a high budget (for the time) delight in failure. Let's see if we can celebrate that in the best way we know how!

Dark Star (1974)
- A Dark Comedy in Space directed by John Carpenter! http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0069945/
"Low-Budget story of four astronauts in deep space, whose mission is to destroy unstable planets in star systems which are to be colonised. The late Commander Powell is stored in deep freeze, where he is still able to offer advice. As their mission nears completion, they must cope with a runaway alien which resembles a beach-ball, faulty computer systems, and a "smart bomb" who thinks it is God."
