Saturday the 14th Strikes Back
A musical "comedy" that tries to gain a little leverage by insinuating it's a sequel to another little known B movie. It was made to be riffed. Oh, and it's got the other kid from Explorers in it.

The 36th Chamber of Shaolin
This movie has many slapstick and goofy elements that would be ripe for some riffing! It also has a pretty cool story and good fighting. My only concern is that this movie may be TOO GOOD to riff... or they might not be able to get the rights.

Jane and the Lost City
One of our favorite Rifftrax is "The Prisoners of the Lost Universe". Written and directed by one Terry Marcel. The same person that brought us Hawk the Slayer (a bit of useless trivia the actors that play Malachi and The Greenman star in both). So on Friday I stumbled on another film written and directed by our old pal: Jane and the Lost City.
This movie is available to be streamed on YouTube in its entirety. And oh my is this a stinker. The main character, Jane, loses her clothes (but not her undergarments) about every 5 minutes for no…

William Shakespeare's Romeo + Juilet (1996)
This 1996 movie directed by Baz Lhurmann features late 16th century dialogue in a 20th century world. Many of you have been forced to watch this movie in high school English class. Some liked it, others hated it. If you hated it, you might be the best person to riff this movie.
Leonardo DiCaprio plays Romeo, and Claire Danes plays Juilet, in case anybody needs to know.

Resident Evil: Retribution
This is the 20th...or the 7th.. or ...well its one of the sequentially worsening Resident evil movies. Retribution vomits characters from the titular game series into random situations for brief cameos just because they can. The plot is clearly an attempt to make Inception with zombies while patching the rest of the film together with pieces lifted from other much better movies. There are approximately 15 different plot lines going on between the 47 characters all of which never conclude. This is a tremendous doodie bomb!

"Bigfoot" (1970) starring John Carradine, Joi Lansing.
It's in the public domain. The synopsis for the film is "Bigfoot kidnaps some women and some bikers decide to go on a rescue mission to save them." It's completely PG-13 and is just ridiculously hokey.

The Greatest Showman (2017)
Join the Wolverine and 1/8th of the cast of "High School Musical" for a sloppily choreographed cheesefest of a circus movie! It's actually nothing like what really happened with P.T. Barnum.

Thomas and the Magic Railroad (2000)
A children's film from 2000 with a loose, paper-thin plot, Alec Baldwin at his wackiest, a teenage Mara Wilson, Peter Fonda succeding way too much at being a depressed old man, and corny bad guys who motives are never clear. With 2020 being the 20th anniversary of the film, it's time this film got what it deserves.

The Green Hornet (1940 serials)
13 episodes: The 1960s Batman television series was created based on the popularity of a re-release of Columbia's Batman & Robin serial. The success of both led to the production of a Green Hornet series, which was played as a straight action mystery series, "in the tradition of its former presentations", rather than the camp Batman series. It lasted one season

Battlefield Earth!
This movie was bad all around. The whole premise (sorry L.Ron) the acting and sets. I nominate this movie in the name of satirical spoof. How do we consider Travolta a serious actor at this point. Let me point out the positives. PG-13, 2 hours, Sci-fi, and also Travolta. This is your flick. Don't miss the boat, guys.

eXistenZ
Cronenberg re-imagines Videodrome....With eXistenZ "A game designer on the run from assassins must play her latest virtual reality creation with a marketing trainee to determine if the game has been damaged." Lot's of wait, what is reality? Elements of Matrix, 13 Floor, House of Leaves, and all with less body horror than even Nightbreed.

The War of the Worlds (1953)
Before there was a Dr. Clayton Forrester tormenting our SOL-stranded heroes from the bowels of Deep 13, there was another Dr. Clayton Forrester who battled (pompously and ineffectively) against a horde of Martian invaders. The Martians proved immune to guns, heavy artillery, and even nuclear weapons. But apparently, they could be prayed to death. Best known today for being a precursor to other, bigger budget ripoffs of H.G. Wells' science-fiction masterpiece in 1996 (Independence Day) and 2005 (L. Ron Hubbard vs. Mars).
