They are really sneaking up on me with these VOD releases, but there hasn't been a bad one outside of that bigfoot movie. Christ was that thing excruciating.

Was Carradine drunk or stoned when he made this?

I like how the movie implied that the reporter had sex, in the apartment where her sister was brutally murdered, perhaps with her sister's body still on the floor, with a flabby-armed beer-bellied balding guy at least 25 years her senior.

I mean, the actress seemed reluctant to even touch Carradine.

Probably just oxygen-deprived.

Also, looking on Carradine's IMDB page, apparently this movie has a sequel! Hopefully it will be coming soon after Manos.

So the nerdy paraplegic kid was played by DC Douglas, who you may know as Legion in the Mass Effect games and Albert Wesker in the later Resident Evils.

He wrote about his experience in this movie on his blog.

That was a really good VOD.
The movie was bad, sure, but watchably bad.
And the riffs were great.

Future Force feels like a movie where the script was made up on the spot; Carradine would wake up from last night's blackout and decide that killing the reporter's sister was the ticket to a romantic twist. You'd think she'd hate the C.O.P.S. (and him) more because they murdered her sister.

Now that I think on it, I don't remember anyone's name beyond Tucker; probably because they said it half a million times.

Jason Adams...which I only know because it flashed across the FUTURISTIC bounty ticker at the end.

I bought two VODs recently because I hadn't gotten anything since Ice Cream Bunny. Future Force was good, Buffalo Rider was just ok. There was more goofy/inept poo poo to work with in Future Force (plus David Carradine), whereas Buffalo Rider was just a big borefest with some animal cruelty mixed-in. It felt like they had to strain for the comedy more.

Buffalo Rider is the Monster-A-Go-Go of Rifftrax.

edit: By that I mean the movie is a loving slog, but when the Riffs get laughs, drat.

Especially Part-Time Narrator.

I cracked up pretty much every time the guys imitated the folksy narrator over scenes of horrible animal suffering.

Buffalo Rider is a definite buy in my opinion.

Buffalo Rider is excellent.

I doubt anything can top Bloody Pit of Horror, though. I've now seen all of them (except Future Force), and Pit is just incredible.

It's the Pod People of Rifftrax.

The other day I marathoned Bloody Pit, Future Force, and Brainiac. Aside from no longer fearing death, I can't help but wonder how Benson from SVU feels about her dad prancing about like a perverted matchstick.

All the narrator stuff in Buffalo Rider didn't do it for me the first time, but maybe after a few more views I'll like it. There were MSTs that I thought were boring for the longest time but then one day they just clicked with me. Ah, we'll see. Gonna pick up Bloody Pit soon, too, to tide me over until Manos.

There is a sequel that is predictably even worse. I really hope they do that too. I should get this since it's one of the few VODs I don't own otherwise, and my friend wrote a drat song about this wonderful film, I am obligated to see it again.

I remember Mike's FB post about "Pit" was something along the lines of "Good news: there's a topless Hargitay featured prominently throughout the film. Bad news: it's her dad." :v:

Old Town Road to EGOT

Just bought my ticket to the Manos RiffTrax Live on Fandango, which I'm really excited about, but while I was there, I saw an option to buy tickets for a Birdemic RiffTrax Live in October.

:aaaaa:

Birdemic is such a horrible movie, and I've already seen the RiffTrax of it (which was awesome), but I'll definitely sit through it again to watch these guys tear it to shreds one more time.

This riff should give you an idea:

"The dubbing makes this movie less in English."

Jesus, not expecting a VOD so soon before Manos (which I have tickets for). Glad to see they're apparently making money on these things, since they're practically new episodes of MST3K.

I doubt they would even think of reusing jokes since most of the people who wrote them aren't even part of Rifftrax.

And it's more like two decades of pop culture :(

You're right. I keep using 2000s to find the difference. 2010 really screwed with my head.

Anyways, tickets are sold out in Pittsburgh. Last time it was 2 days before, now a week. By next year, they'll be out in a few weeks.

Not surprised, there was a short, What About Juvenile Delinquency?, that was done by MST3K and rifftrax later and the jokes were different. Also, wasn't Cinematic Titanic's riffing of "Santa Claus Conquers the Martians" different from the MST3K version?

Rifftrax also has an different feel to it in general, mostly due to everyone being themselves and not portraying characters forced to watch the movies.
