1) I'll definitely read the first few chapters of your book today, it'll be a good way to pass time before an appointment.

2) Will you ever do Surviving Edged Weapons?

Edit: I forgot how gory this movie was. I just remembered the sillier re-enactment scenes.

I just watched the Thor Rifftrax last night because I saw the sequel the night that came out. I hope you croon a good Foo Fighters song, and that Dave Grohl hasn't sent you a cease-and-desist yet.

I thought I saw on twitter a long time ago that Lowtax went to CA to record another rifftrax. Whatever happened to that?

We didn't record anything last time Lowtax was out here. It was probably close to a year ago. He definitely showed us a lot of terrible movies though.

1. Nice! Hope you enjoy it and that the appointment is for something good (I know appointments usually are.)

2. Haven't heard of it but will check it out. "Gory" in the description is usually a bit of a red flag though, unless it's poorly done enough to make it goofy.

I don't know if there's even a complete version of "Surviving Edged Weapons" out there. Yeah, It probably wouldn't fly for Rifftrax but it's still fun to watch.

If there's ever a Hulk Hogan movie that deserves the Rifftrax treatment, it's No Holds Barred. It's too perfect a target. I would pay triple price for a Rifftrax of No Holds Barred.

It's a police training film. Most of the movie is ridiculous - it features:

Canadian accents
A 2001-inspired scene where a caveman kills another caveman.
A Satanic Cult lady in whiteface who attacks police with a sacrificial dagger.
A hispanic man in a business suit killing a police officer with a knife disguised as a pen.
A man wielding a katana killing a police officer.
A rich guy who owns a porche and has a lot of hidden knives.
A lecture where a cop says he's "not gonna die in no ghetto".
Warnings about throwing stars, knife culture, the liberal courts, and baseball caps with razor blades taped to the back.

Unfortunately it also contains autopsy images because it's a training film and they want police to take the threats seriously. I forgot about them because I usually look away and fast forward during them.

Indeed it is. The movie where Hogan plays Rip, who is Hulk Hogan with a different name and color scheme, as he fights the ever-invincible evil wrestler ZEUS.

Hey Rereedrumr love the work you guys do. Please please please please look into Kill Crazy its terrible and awesome and Netflix currently has the craptacular live action Fist of The North Star from 1991 with Downtown Julie Brown. It makes Super Mario Brothers look like arthouse cinema. I look forward to seeing the next live show, and whenever you guys breeze into Austin cause that's awesome good times.

New VOD.
"Swamp of the Ravens"
http://www.rifftrax.com/vod/swamp-ravens

quote:

Yes, it’s an utterly baffling horror film about a mad doctor who believes death is simply an evolution and that every woman wants to sleep with him. Yes, he is laughed out of the academy and moves his decency-defying research to a swamp in Ecuador, as one does. Yes, he’s investigated by a sheriff who can only be described as a chunk of swarthy walking meat, and who also believes that every woman wants to sleep with him.

But MORE THAN ANY OF THIS, Swamp of the Ravens is a vehicle for an original song about being in love with a dead robot that will change the way you view songs, movies, songs in movies, robots, dead robots, living robots, and love itself. Seriously, we haven’t been so infatuated with a song since Damien Carter taught us all about “Hangin’ Out With [His] Family” in Birdemic, and we know you’ll love it just as much as we do. You poor souls.

Oh and also, there are no ravens in the titular raven swamp. Just buzzards. Really, it’s a heck of a movie.

So grab the dead robot you love most and join Mike, Kevin, and Bill for Swamp of the Ravens! No ravens required!

Is that an actual dead guy during the autopsy scene in Swamp of the Ravens? It's pretty convincing, and I'm not sure whether it's more likely that they made a really good prop or if this low budget movie filmed in Ecuador just bought a cadaver.

By all accounts I've seen, yeah that was a real corpse being cut open. Also there was a two minute scene of the crazy doctor fellow loving the corpse of his girlfriend, but that got cut out of the version Rifftrax used.

All around this was a truly classy production, as you can tell.

Old Town Road to EGOT

Santa's Village Of Madness is out now on DVD/VOD.

quote:

Ah, Christmas. That magical time of year when Santa travels all over the universe by means of the fifth dimension, (which his close friend Merlin invented in a floating space castle), delivering toys that were made by a skunk in a factory overseen by a wolf in a village whose head of security, Puss in Boots, occasionally has to fend off giant ogres.

A story so familiar and comforting, it’s like wrapping yourself in a warm blanket. By which we mean it’s so insane and twisted, it makes the Ice Cream Bunny look like Tiny Tim Cratchit.

Christmas with RiffTrax: Santa’s Village of Madness is three shorts from the mad mind of K. Gordon Murray, who brought you the MST3K episode Santa Claus. Featuring cheap mascot costumes, terrifying music, an utter lack of coherence and a Santa who appears to have been dead for most of the shoot, they are some of the most astounding things we have ever laid eyes on, and will quickly become a new yuletide tradition, provided your eggnog is adequately spiked.

Mike, Kevin and Bill will be your hosts throughout your journey, introducing each short with their best brave faces as they stare into the abyss of Christmas Skunks and magic flowers that subvert the space/time continuum!

This DVD includes bonus shorts: What's Happening, Let's Pretend: Magic Sneakers, Join Hands Let Go, and Aesop's Sound Fables: Frozen Frolics!

Rifftrax has a Black Friday sale going on with coupon code "friday" to take a 20% discount off your entire purchase. Plus if you spend more than $20, you get a $5 certificate for next time.

And this may be old news, but apparently they now have Nestor up as a VOD. I grabbed that, the Star Wars Holiday Special VOD and (finally) Guy from Harlem.
