As you read here nearly a month ago, the next RiffTrax Live show will be Thursday, Aug. 19, at 8 p.m. Eastern/7 p.m. Central/6 p.m. Mountain/8 p.m. Pacific (tape delayed).
The movie will be “Reefer Madness,” and there will also be three new shorts. As in the past, audiences will receive free digital goodies after the event including a downloadable short, avatars (those big blue guys?) and other stuff. There will be a rebroadcast of this show at most of the same theaters on Tuesday, Aug. 24. And even more good news: ANOTHER RiffTrax Live show, featuring the movie “House on Haunted Hill,” will come to theaters Thursday, Oct. 28, with an encore on Tuesday, Nov. 2. Our pal Bill Stiteler has started a Facebook page to rally supporters to urge Turner Classic Movies to have Frank Coniiff be one of their “guest programmers.” As you probably know, Frank has an encyclopedic knowledge of movies and we think he’d be terrific at this.
Bill’s page is here. Volume XVIII comes out in a couple of weeks and the reviews are starting to roll in.
Update: Our pal Bruce Westbrook has a review as well. Erich Asperschlager at DVD Verdct weighs in. Jason Bailey at DVDTalk.com was among the first to post a review. I thought we’d done this topic, but I guess I was confusing it with the “Christmas Movies They Should Have Riffed” and the “Shorts They Should Have Riffed” topics.
So, alert reader Mark writes:
Give me time and I could list 50, but I’ll just pick the first three that come to mind. What would you pick? |
