Christmas with RiffTrax featuring The Magic Christmas Tree - DVD now available!

We're happy to present the first ever RiffTrax Christmas special! In the spirit of the season (that is, delusional hysteria and madness) we've dug up some hilariously bizarre holiday oddities!

Join your hosts, Mike Nelson, Kevin Murphy, and Bill Corbett, as they:

*Exchange gifts, with vintage toy commercials
*Riff an insane vintage cartoon, The Shanty Where Santy Claus Lives
*And riff the main event, Magic Christmas Tree!

Magic Christmas Tree is a fresh slice of holiday weird, sure to bring back cherished childhood memories. Remember how your parents used to tell that old Christmas tale of a boy who hit his head trying to help a witch retrieve a cat named Lucifer, hallucinated for months, and befriended a creepy, sarcastic tree? No? Well that's probably for the best, you were a young, impressionable child. But you're ready now!

Gather the family, get a bucket of eggnog, and settle in for Christmas with RiffTrax: The Magic Christmas Tree!

We know that it's been a little while since the last DVD release and promise that there are more on the way...another shorts compilation and another feature before the end of the year/very early next year. Apologies if that isn't enough right now, but there will be more to come and we aren't abandoning the format.

This looks to be fantastic!  I certainly hope that the Oozinator qualifies as a vintage toy (commercial).

BTW, the wife (I guess) in the feature riff could use some acting lessons, and I'd be willing to give them to her, if you know what I mean.  I meant sex*.

* I'm all talk.

[Mrs. Dick Courier]

Yay!  I was waiting a bit to see if any more DVDs were released, think I'll make my order soon.

[X3 Beast]

Finally!! A New DVD! Now if only we could start working on getting the backlog of VoD films on DVD.

[Edward J Grug III]

This is great news!

Can I ask if there are plans to release the live Santa and the Ice Cream Bunny riff on VOD in time for Christmas?

[Wernski]

Nice!  Ordered!

[X3 Beast]

Curious. I ordered the physical disc, but the file for it and and past shorts discs now show up in My Downloads area.

Does this mean I can download the content to enjoy for now until the DVD arrives?

[Edward J Grug III]

I think you hacked the mainframe.

[losingmydignity]

This is going to be an annual event, right? Not releasing a DVD (or a Kraken) but a new streamed show?

Yes? Good. Thank you.

Is this all they're doing for Christmas? I'm hoping there's gonna be a new VOD, surely there's some mind-melting Christmas movie out there that's still unriffed!

I assume that the fact they call this the first ever Xmas special means there will be a "second"  (it is odd not to count Ice Cream Bunny and the live Shorts show as Xmas specials) and that this will be another live streamed event in December.

One hopes anyway.

Again, Magic Christmas Tree will be the Second Christmas special.

This was the first:

You mean "A" live streamed event.  This wasn't live when they released it.   They have yet to be able to get a live streamed show to work properly.

Sometimes we just don't keep as good track of these things as you guys.
