Now Available from RiffTrax

RiffTrax is continuing to release “three riffer” commentary tracks for movies that were previously released by Legend Films with solo commentaries by Mike. This one is “Carnival of Souls.” As with the others, if you previously bought the Legend DVD, all you need is to download the commentary and you’re all set.
If you didn’t buy the DVD, you can also download it as a video-on-demand file that includes the movie and the riffing.

Download it here. Free sample here.

We’ve been told that all these riffs have been rewritten to varying degrees from the initial solo riff. The early solo riffs — such as this one — were not so much riffs as more typical DVD commentaries with a little riffing thrown in, and have been extensively re-written.

Coming next: ““Swing Parade” on March 10.

Also, the Wired Blog discusses the spate of Legend re-do’s, including some comments from Bill.

Weekend Discussion Thread: Worst Performance by an Actor

Last week we did actresses. Ladies first. This time it’s guys’ turn.

Worst performance by an actor?

My pick is a little rough, because he’s recently deceased, but I gotta say it: Ray Dennis Steckler, aka Cash Flagg in “The Incredibly Strange Creatures Who Stopped Living and Became Mixed-Up Zombies.” Whatever his merits as a director (and we’ll discuss that next week) as an actor he makes Hal Warren in “Manos” look like Lawrence Olivier.

What’s your pick?
