Holy crap! Much like Troll 2, this is a movie that I've heard about many times, but now must seek out.

Isn't the movie a riff of itself? It's an atrociously bad, but equally hilarious film to be sure, so I wonder at the point of the riff. It is funny enough on its own. I'd rather them do a movie that is not in the least funny and then bring the humour out of that rather than one that's already a comedic masterpiece. Riffing a comedy just doesn't gel with me. Though I have to acknowledge that on the DVD commentary to Squirm, the director says that movie was supposed to be a comedy/spoof on horror film in itself and yet the MST3k version is a work of art. The commentary to that is actually great - you wouldn't believe the actors who were supposed to play those roles. I don't really myself, but the director is so drat earnest about making you believe Martin Sheen was gonna play the main guy but wanted to play him like a New York lawyer so so was fired. The list of 'before they were famous' stars he says were in the wings is as long as your arm.

There are movies I wouldn't even consider watching without the intervention of riffing. Transformers was one of them.

Say hello to your mother for me also: I can also attest to the so bad it's goodness of The Room. I'm not too familiar with the cult following it received in LA since I saw it in Northern California on bootleg. But if I were to describe it, it would be like a Skinemax movie with the good parts taken out, the lovely parts prolonged and it's all directed by a film school dropout. The love interest is played by a chubby Britney Spears from Crossroad, and the "child" in the movie is played by a guy who looks like he's 30.

Gonna echo Smithee's post and say if you have not watched it yet WATCH THE ROOM! My brothers and I were quoting it for days after seeing it. This convenient starter guide was posted last week on the rifftrax blog. http://blog.rifftrax.com/2009/06/12/oh-hi-rifftrax-a-guide-to-the-room/

I'm working on an I-Riff for Eraserhead... I've got an ample script... And that's about it. Does anyone have any advice on getting I-riffs published? The website mentions sending in a text file that synchs up the time code, I'm not sure what they want. Do they want a time code that lists when lines of dialog are spoken during the movie? Or do they want a script detailing our riffs along with their corresponding time-code?

Alan Smithee posted:are any of the iriffs worthwhile? ICWXP is the king. A total ripoff of MST3K but it's really well done (except for a few lame host segments). And no syncing to do. The recent Night of the Lepus one is really great but you have to track down Night of the Lepus. I also like Quiptracks' riffs. I'm biased as head writer for Riff Raff Theater, but try us out. I think our best work is still Speed.
