Hello, Traxians! And happy Monday!
This Thursday, join me on Scener for what is becoming one of my annual rewatches, and my newest favorite holiday tradition: a screening of quite possibly the nuttiest movie to feature Santa Claus, I Believe in Santa Claus. In case you haven't seen it already, here's a sample from our product page:
I Believe in Santa Claus starts with our hero, Simon, being locked in a closet by a cruel janitor.... Simon i...

Fresh on the RiffTrax site, it's a new Bridget and Mary Jo riff! And it's another movie that takes place in the extended Mary Higgins Clark Cinematic Universe (the MHCCU for short).
He Sees You When You’re Sleeping is a Christmas fantasy based on the selfsame novel by mother/daughter team Mary and Carol. Self-centered and ambitious bad golfer Sterling Brooks is killed in a freak accident, ruining absolutely no one’s Christmas. On the way to the afterlife he’...

Hi there, Traxians!
In about 24 hours from now, join me as we kick off the Santa Season with a visit to his Summer House!
Santa's Summer House was directed by one of our favorites, David DeCoteau (A Talking Cat!?!, The Journey: Absolution) and while it stars multiple martial artists, like Cynthia Rothrock, it sadly contains very little martial artistry.
We'll kick off the fun tomorrow, December 9th at 3:30pm Pacific / 6:30pm Eastern

Mike, Kevin, and Bill are back and TALKIN' — RiffTrax, that is!
They're here to discuss the intricate details of their latest riff subject, Atomic Eden. Well, by "intricate," we mean "terrible." They discuss the actor trying to pull off "being from Texas" by constantly reminding everyone he's from Texas, a disappearing-and-reappearing beard, plus the contributions of noted Actual Actor Lorenzo ...

Inside the ruins of Chernobyl, a ragtag group of stereotypes attempts to fend off a horde of Nazis.
They’re both after something called Atomic Eden, which sounds like the name of a scrapped David Lee Roth solo album, or perhaps a strain of mid-grade weed. It could be either, because the movie never really gets around to filling the audience in on what Atomic Eden might be. But WOW, a lot of people sure are willing to die for it! So actually, it proba...

Hiya Traxians,
Erik here. Today is Thursday, and normally that would mean a Turkey Thursday show... but instead, I thought I'd switch it up a bit, because we've got a brand new VOD release that's got me more excited than all the Turkeys in Turkeyville: Atomic Eden! It's also one of the most recent movies we've ever riffed, having been released in 2015 (just two years before Star Raider...

Howdy folks!
It's almost Thanksgiving here in the U.S., and to that end we'd like to not only extend our heartfelt thanks to you, dear Traxians, for all your support this year, and in the years past. But we'd additionally like to talk to you more about a turkey that also contains a turkey! That is, human-sized turkey called James "Jim" Carrey and his early role in this pseudo-commercial, Copp...

Long before Nature Called or Harry Met Lloyd, Jim Carrey was just another Canadian. And as we all know, most Canadians spend their free time vacationing with Alan Thicke. The fellas decide to ignore their glaring age difference and hit the slopes at Copper Mountain. What follows is a mountain retreat that goes about as well as Jack Torrance’s did, but with more annoying Sammy Davis, Jr. impressions.
The whole thing was intended as product placement ...

Hiya folks!
Fresh on the RiffTrax website, it's our latest B-movie release: Dangerous Men!
As best we can tell, here’s what happens: After her fiancé is murdered, a woman becomes a prostitute who goes on a murder spree. At this point, John S. Rad must have realized that this plot was a total rip-off of Paw Patrol: The Movie, so the plot switches gears and tells...

Copper Mountain was originally supposed to serve as a commercial for the Club Med ski resort in Copper Mountain, Colorado. And we all know how feature-length commerc...

Come join fellow Traxians for another Turkey Thursday of the only movie to feature demonically-possessed cat-within-a-cat scares! Okay, it's more "weird" and "kinda gross" than it is scary. Since it's from Greydon (Star Games, Final Justice) Clark, that isn't too much of a surprise. But we do love him when he's at his most sincere!
