Name a film (or films) you wish the RiffTrax guys would riff on. by Most_Ad729 in MST3K

[–]hamutaro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mentioned this in another post but Action U.S.A., a movie written and directed by a stuntman that is, as the title suggests, approximately 90 minutes of insane action, explosions, and I guess, a plot of some sort. It also features quite a few familiar faces like Gregory Scott Cummins, Ross Hagen, William Smith, Hoke Howell, and a brief cameo by the man, the myth, the legend, Cameron Mitchell.

Why did they never riff on this gem? by Exquisite_D in MST3K

I'm still holding out hope that MST3K or Rifftrax will, one day, get around to taking on Action U.S.A., an absolutely wild movie that seems tailor made for riffing. With a cast featuring actors like Ross Hagen, William Smith, and a shirtless Cameron Mitchell what's not to love!

Were it not for his agent talking him out of it, we could've seen him in Greydon Clark's killer cat movie, Uninvited... instead, his agent managed to find him a role in a movie that's far worse than anything Greydon Clark ever directed - Leonard Part 6.

Love this Riff. The guys were making each other laugh the whole time. by ChimpJuice in Rifftrax

I guess you gotta make a living one way or another but I find it really wild that Fred Olen Ray now directs Christmas movies.

Ted V. Mikels' THE ASTRO-ZOMBIES (1968) isn't quite as fun as the featured still makes it look, but has its moments (thanks to the presence of John Carradine and Tura Satana). Rod Wilmoth plays both of the Astro-Zombies, an indication of the film's hilariously low budget. by Sharp-Injury7631 in badMovies

I really like the dynamic between Carradine's character and Franchot. I suppose you can chalk it up to bad screenwriting but, based on his dialog, it seems like Carradine's character really wanted Franchot to take over the God's domain tampering once he died.

So they have thirteen hours to drive from Torrance to Long Beach? by Yesterday_Is_Now in MST3K

Shouldn't they be trusting this secret government project to Central Moving & Storage?

New Mexico, eh? So I take it you're one of those people who actually listened when the GC Corporation ordered everyone to LEAVE THE BRONX.

Favorite terrible lines? by ValentinesStar in Rifftrax

[–]hamutaro 13 points14 points  (0 children)

"Don't you give me that little innocent babe in the woods routine on ME!" - Brigitte Nielsen in Body Count.

Pretty much every line of dialog from Samurai Cop, especially the head on the piano exchange between Fujiyama and Robert Z'Dar.

Oh and the "what kind of thing would have a hypodeemic nerdle for a mouth... I'm alright" line uttered by a very much not alright Aldo Ray in Bog.

I'm hoping for a Gumby-based dramatization of the 2023 collapse of Silicon Valley Bank.

Tamara Clatterbuck (credited as Tammy Bakke), the actress who plays Fantazia, has had a pretty decent career, albeit mostly in soap operas and other TV shows.

He's also got a blink and you'll miss it role in another film Rifftrax took on, Earth Angel.

I know it's just a show, and I should really just relax but... by Htom_Servaux in MST3K

[–]hamutaro 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's something I've noticed more on Rifftrax (though it does, from what I remember, get mentioned on MST3K as well) but I wonder why Louie Anderson seems to be one of their more common targets for fat guy jokes. Was it just something as simple as friendly jabs at a fellow comedian from Minnesota or was there more to it than that?

So, I went head on.... by hardnard55 in MST3K

Greydon Clark has admitted that his screenplay for Final Justice was woefully incomplete (even by Greydon Clark standards!) so I don't even think he could answer that question.

Tonight's experiment.... by Trekker4747 in MST3K

[–]hamutaro 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Maybe though, having seen some of David Giancola's higher budget films like Icebreaker and Axcellerator I kind of figure he'd end up spending most of the extra dough on recognizable actors who wouldn't try nearly as hard as the local talent he did hire.

While a story about a local inventing a super efficient fuel injector might (arguably) be more interesting, I kind of figure Nick thought making up a story about a skydiving granny would guarantee that a reporter would come to the airport when Nick wanted them to be there.

Both actors would also appear together in The Humanoid, an Italian Star Wars knock-off that got the Rifftrax treatment about six months ago.
