I've laughed harder at riffed movies than I have most comedies.

Give me Joe Estevez over Jonah Hill any day. I've split my sides watching monsters in bad rubber suits fighting stilted heroes misdelivering awfully written dialogue.

Anyone else enjoy the so bad it's good stuff?

Don't even get me started on the shorts. PSAs...


Here, just get a taste.

I think you would get a kick out Red Letter Media's Best of the Worst. Its not MST3K style but just straight up commentary and review but they REALLY dig into the trash bin and know their trash. If you jibe with their humor its great. Good regular movie reviews as well.

One of my favorites..

I'm pretty fond of MST3K. That's where I saw what has to be one of the worst movies ever made, or at least a candidate for such.

Manos: The Hands of Fate. I still can't believe that at some point while they were filming it they didn't just decide that it wasn't going well and just stopped. It's really bad

We watched Beaks!!! The other night.

Good lord...so much stock footage!

I think we'll watch Birdemic tonight. We got the Rifftrax channel and it's well worth the 6 bucks a month

Never watched it. Sounds like something I’d like though.

“Giant Spider Invasion.”

For anyone like myself who is from Wisconsin there is not a funnier episode. If you are not familiar with Wisconsin and it’s quirks I can see how this episode can be a drag. To me it’s just nonstop belly laughter.

The line “Gee Mike. This doesn’t look like Wisconsin. I don’t see a Tommy Bartlett water ski show sign anywhere.” Gets me every damn time.

My favorites from back in the day were:

Future War
Hobgoblins
Quest of the Delta Knights

The Rifftrax of the Twilight series is also amazing. I've got synced versions burned to DVD's and bring them out regularly.

I second Red Letter Media's Best of the Worst - they have a ton of stuff going back years.

As for MST3K - I still occasionally think of the Pumaman episode.

"Puma man, he flies like a moron"

"I hate to be picky, but pumas aren't really known for flying."

I miss those old shows, glad we have so many but always lived seeing it on.

The final sacrifice always is a classic
