Meh.com featured a review of Cellar Dweller. Has anyone seen it? Would it be worth riffing?

How did Ham Radio Guy know to light the corpse and doll on fire? Like, you'd THINK it's one of those Poltergeist situations, but nope!

It didn't work because the doll needed to be buried with whoever the doll belonged to first before it was stolen and given to the little girl.

This is one of the few movies where you can intuitively treat the entire movie as a lobotomized guys dream as opposed to just forcing that meme onto the movie.

I'm still on the fence about asking for a refund on one I bought over a year ago at this point just because half of the movie consists of women screaming. But it's still in the store so that must not be an issue for most people.

I'm reasonably sure that I've spent more than $20 a month on Rifftrax for the past...at least the past two years. Not counting Kickstarters and the live shows.

Heaven help me if they ever decide to do an audio-only season on something like Dragnet or Mr. Wizard because then I'd have to buy the riffs AND the episodes themselves.

Edit: What I'm saying is I need a Rifftrax intervention.

It was Dark Power, I was on the fence about getting it or the movie where aliens pretend to be cowboys and everyone ogles the lady dressed up as a sexy "indian".

I probably won't rewatch Last Slumber Party but don't regret getting it either. It's one of the few movies where you could legitimately say "It was all in the guy's head". We meet a violent and dangerous guy about to have his brain worked on and then he goes on a killing spree in ways that don't make a lot of sense. But what if he already had the surgery and he was having a revenge fantasy? The plot contrivances shift from lazy script writing to crazed fantasy.

I bought four things. The second Bridget and Mary Jo special, Wizzo, something about kittens, and something about seatbelts. The only one I couldn't make it through was the seatbelt one. And that's because people's complaints mostly boiled down to variations of it's inconvenient. There was also one person who denied they worked at all because if the seat belt stretches in order to be put on how can it keep from stretching in a crash?

I was old the moment the short said Tea Car. I don't remember which rifftrax person lurks in this thread but I promise I will spend $20 plus the cost of the short if this gets made into a short.

I would do that anyways, to be honest. I have a problem.

I hope we get more MST3K crossovers like the one with Bez in the 2016 holiday special.

"I Believe in Santa Claus" and "Santa's Villiage of Madness" are two non-live Christmas-time classics. "This is Hormel" is a solid short (About 20 minutes). As for Bridge and Mary Jo stuff I prefer "Life in the Suburbs" over "A Word to the Wives". The latter seems more popular and higher rated though.

"Home of the Future" has Bridgette singing off key and I find that charming.

Edit: There are a lot of riffs I want as ringtones but that's one I specifically want for a friend.

it's got nothing on individual differences or each child is different

Each child is different is really depressing. Long story short: Each kid has their own family problems and it's up to you to correct for them in your instruction. But you only change how you teach. Because you can't actually do anything about their home lives. With luck you'll get thru to the kids and make their lives better!

That house of the future short was supposed to be horrifying, right?

The kid and his mom never seem to leave the house or talk to other people, everybody's life is regulated to the smallest detail by a giant computer that the family doesn't even control, microwaved food is the default.

For the first ten minutes or so I was convinced this was actually a horror film and that Wink Martindale and his family were actually the only people left on earth.

I figured it was sincerely optimistic given the time period. The guy still gets roast beef and plays golf. The house does the work but the wife still knows how to cook. The kid might watch cartoons but he still knows how to play chess and still does work out things. Minorities know their place as entertainment for the white race.

Okay, that last sentence is way too harsh on the film. It was also an attempt to show an inclusive environment at a time when a white man kissing a black woman on TV was grounds for some whites to boycott a TV network.

For some reason

These words are as true for Whizzo as they were for Balloonland. "It was a simpler, stupider time."

Disappointed it's not bigger like Men in Black or something. I'll still probably see Samurai Cop but am glad I sat out the Kickstarter this year.

Maybe I'm reading this wrong, but it sounds like you're saying something like this; I like that they're doing a thing I'll pay money for but I wont spend a buck upfront even if I get $20 worth of riffs in exchange.
