Hello, Traxians! Do you have a second? 

How about a Split Second? Well, now you do

It's a 90s action/horror/sci-fi movie - starring none other than the iconic Rutger Hauer. 

There’s a vicious monster roaming the streets of London, eating victims’ internal organs.
When this guy orders steak and kidney pie, he says “Hold the steak and....

Hangin' Out with RiffTrax: 16 Years and Counting!

Howdy ho there, Traxians!

RiffTrax just recently celebrated our 16th birthday with a huge sale and the release of an update to our Online Party Game! When RiffTrax first launched in July of 2006, did we ever think we'd be crafting an Online Party Game? The answer is a resounding, "No, we did not."

While Super and Ultra Traxians got to attend it live, the video of this latest Hangin' Out With RiffTrax is now available for Traxians of all levels! Watch it above or download it View Post

Turkey Thursday: THE POWER

Hello, Traxians! 

Your old pal Erik here. Let's watch another Turkey this Thursday, whaddo ya say? This week, I'll host a watch party just for Patrons, wherein we'll screen our riff of THE POWER. (That's right, another movie whose title starts with "The"!) 

Here's our synopsis:

It seems like every time a movie character unearths a mysterious idol from an ancient ruin, some cursed demon ends up imbuing them with a psychotic need to kill. Bu...

Who Said it Best? RETURN OF SWAMP THING EDITION

Hello, Traxians! 

RiffTrax just turned 16! And of course we're having a sale to celebrate, but even better than that, we're riffing The Return of Swamp Thing LIVE from Nashville in less than a month!

One of the things we always craft early on is a trailer for the live event, since that's required to promote the upcoming show. 

The lines for the trailer are written ahead of, and sep...

Turkey Thursday: THE DARK

Howdy Traxians! 

It's time for another installment of TURKEY THURSDAY! This time, we're going dark... real dark. 

In The Dark, William Devane, currently starring in commercials where he convinces older folks it’s a good idea to put all their money in gold, is a “sexy” former cop turned novelist (sure, why not) out to avenge his daughter’s death in a battle against… whatever is happening in The Dark. Really, we spent a...

Talkin' RiffTrax: MIKEY

Howdy, Traxians! 

Kevin and Mike return to your screens to discuss the insanity that is MIKEY! They dig in a little bit more into some of the actors who managed to get parts in this horror movie, acting their hearts out. Enjoy!

An extended preview for MIKEY

Not to be confused with our own Mikey J Nelson, the movie is MIKEY about a precocious teenager who just loves to murder! 

Yes, whether it’s tossing a hairdryer into a bathtub, or a savage beating with a baseball bat, there’s nothing Mikey enjoys more than murdering people who show him affection and kindness.
Adopt him? You’re on his hit list! Teach him math? Better watch it...

Talkin' RiffTrax: ESCAPE FROM THE BRONX

Greetings, Traxians! Have you escaped from the Bronx? 

Well, if not, good! Because then you probably wouldn't be able to watch this episode of Talkin' RiffTrax, where Mike and Kevin spoil the plot of our latest riff — and whether Trash does, in fact, escape the Bronx.

Extended Preview: ESCAPE FROM THE BRONX

Hello, Traxians! This past Friday we released our all-new take on a classic(?) fan-favorite(?) riff subject, Escape from the Bronx!

When RiffTrax last paid a visit to the Bronx, it was a festering heap of violence, filth, and burning barrels. And now they’re saying we have to leave???

Turkey Thursday: THE PHANTOM CREEPS

Howdy, Traxians! With Memorial Day behind us, blockbuster season has officially begun! Keeping that in mind, let's go in the complete opposite direction for another Turkey Thursday, shall we?

This week's entry is THE PHANTOM CREEPS.

Bela Lugosi plays Dr. Zorka, a mad scientist who has taken on a few too many projects at once. Robots, invisibility belts, picking up hitchhikers and then immediately driving them off cliffs... he’s a busy guy! Fortunately, ...

Talkin' RiffTrax: UNIVERSAL SOLDIER 3

Just when you thought the "Business" was "Finished" - along comes Universal Soldier III to prove you otherwise! 

More Burt Reynolds! And he's occasionally doing a bad Irish accent! The guys dig into that even more, and some of the other non-Burt-Reynolds actors, in this latest episode of Talkin' RiffTrax for "UniSol" 3. Enjoy! 

You can download this video here.

UNIVERSAL SOLDIER III: UNFINISHED BUSINESS (Extended Preview)

Brand new on RiffTrax.com, it's a 1998 made-for-TV Universal Soldier sequel that isn't in any way related to the second movie in the original film's universe, Universal Soldier: The Return (released the following year), but is related to the second TV movie, 2022-05-20 19:18:31 +0000 UTC View Post

Talkin' RiffTrax: A CRIME OF PASSION

Hi, Traxians! Erik here.

I can't do a Turkey Thursday this week, unfortunately, but here's something I think you'll enjoy at least as much: a new episode of the Talkin' RiffTrax podcast!

Extended Preview: JURASSIC SHARK

Hold onto your butts - it's JURASSIC SHARK! Our latest B-Movie riff.

There are so, so many shark movies. That’s probably because audiences keep going for them like a shark after a fresh bucket of Richard Dreyfuss. Big shark movies, little shark movies, expensive shark movies, cheap shark movies, tornado-and-irony based shark movies… and people still want more! It might even inspire you ...

Turkey Thursday: INVASION OF THE ANIMAL PEOPLE

Greetings, Traxians! 

It's time for another Turkey Thursday! This week, we'll turn our attention to an older movie, whose goofy-sounding title leads me to believe this movie was destined for us to riff it.

How RiffTrax Made a Video Game (Part 1)

Hello there Traxians!

If you don’t know me, my name is Peter Hunter, and I’ve been working at RiffTrax since July 2016 handling the digital marketing duties for the company. A lot of this past year, however, I’ve been working as a producer for a (previously) secret project for RiffTrax. By now you’ve probably seen the big announcement: RiffTrax just released a video game! I wanted to give you Trax...

Mike, Kevin, and Bill talk A DANGEROUS MAN

Not to be confused with Dangerous Men, it's A Dangerous Man - RiffTrax Style!

Right after recording the riff to this late 2000s Steven Seagal misfire, the guys thought to dig in deeper and explore the film's many qualities, like Seagal's very serious voice, the vagueness of where any of the characters are from (including Seagal himself), and more!

Hello, Traxians! 

It's new riff day! And, just for something different, it's a "Just the Jokes" riff! This time, the subject is OLD, the M. Night Shyamalan thriller-type film that was also based on a graphic novel! (Most movies these days are based on graphic novels, in fact.)

Turkey Thursday premiere: MUTANT

Greetings, Traxians! 

This week's Turkey Thursday is a special one! We recently upgraded our riffed edition of MUTANT (starring Wings Hauser!) into HD, and so I thought this would be the perfect time to "premiere" it, so to speak. It may be a bit of an oldie (it will be 10 years old in May!) but it's still a goodie.

Not so much the X-Men kind of mutant, and not so much the Teenage Ninja ...

Talkin' RiffTrax: RAPID ASSAULT

Mike, Kevin, and Bill continued to stand at their recording podiums after recording last week's riff, Rapid Assault! They discuss the many mustachioed men of the film, as well as Bill's favorite element: the under-appreciated, and yet overused, genre of "underwater SCUBA-submarine stuff."
