He's back! You probably didn't know that he was gone, but he was and now he's back! Swamp Thing, AKA Swampington Montgomery Thing, returns to thwart the sinister plans of the evil Doctor Arcane, who apparently is also back. But! Here for the first time is Heather Locklear, the young woman who is drawn to the mysterious charms of Mr. Thing and desires a love that is both human and plant-based.

A sequel to the Wes Craven cult classic, The Return of Swamp Thing is decidedly NOT Directed by Wes Craven, but that's fine, because it means this one is bigger, more fun, and way more riffable.

Join Kevin, Bill and Mike as they run through the backwood bay, chasin' down a hoodoo, live in theaters nationwide this August.

Aw yeah!  Taking the nephews to the theater here in Memphis.  This'll be their first Rifftrax.  Make 'em laugh, Riffers, or you'll ruin my family cred!

Just got back to hotel after our first-ever in-person show at the Belcourt. A-MAY-zing! Great riffing fodder, the guys were on fire, big laughs throughout. Great show!
It is easier to destroy than to create.
More fun, too.

Absolutely agree!  They truly did not disappoint.  The anniversary well wishes from all the past guests and friends was a nice touch, as was the truly outdated dentistry short.

Even the jaded teenage nephews had a great time.  Of course, they were probably smoking the dope...

What WAS the name of that bizarre short film on dentistry?

16 year tribute video: Awesome!
Short: Hilarious! Rifftrax sure has introduced us to some horrible puppetry.
Movie: Meh. Some laughs, but one of our least favorite live show movies. We both fell asleep a few times.

Yeah...we didn't go cause wife fell asleep at last 2 we went to see, so waiting for VOD. But she falls asleep in most movies we go to, so don't go to the theater much. I blame it on the recliners all the theaters here have now.

If you asked me what elements I like most in a riffed movie, mad science and superheroes would top my list. This had lots and lots of both and was really hammy about it. Laughed 'til I was sore.

I fall asleep at every single Rifftrax Live event, without fail.  Even when I went to see Five Doctors in the middle of the afternoon, I fell asleep.
I'm not particularly religious, and I don't really like Muppets, but I do love word play.
