Horror films have long been underrepresented among Rifftrax films.  I mean, they didn't even do a horror film for Halloween last year!  I have gotten the impression that Mike isn't comfortable with graphic material, which is certainly his choice.  But  I'm delighted that they've found people who do want to riff horror films because, even as a fan, I'm all too aware of the many areas within this genre begging for parody. 

Just do a zombie horror film next.  Pretty please!

This is another Rifftrax of a film I never thought I would ever watch. (The Grudge, Wickerman, Crossroads, Glitter) And yet, I just put it on the top of my netflix queue. If only I can sneak it past my wife . . . . .

But they should totally do all the original George Romero Zombie movies.

(One time I met George Romero and I told him, "Hey, I like your zombie movies."
He said, "Don't scare me."
. . . I was like WTF??? Don't look at me . You are the one writing and directing them. I didn't come up with the idea of pulling a dude in half and eating his guts while he is still screaming. I just watched it.)

Wow, Saw......... I actually own this movie and found it to be totally non-scary and not very gory.   

The concept of more adult commentary interests this little boy a lot.

Very nice concept!

Ohmigod ohmigod ohmigod. I love this movie. It's so goofy and fun and loud and gory and the only fake accent worse than the one Cary Elwes uses in this one is... well, the accent he used in The Crush. And now I get it with Kevin and Bill?!? Are you sure you can't bump up the release date to, say, right now? I am totally stoked. To those who are complaining about this I have one thing to say (and it's gonna be NASTY!):

You are entitled to your opinion and I respect it, though I disagree.

ZING!

And the unicorn cover will forever be, in my mind, the official cover for this track. Brilliant job on it.

Next up, Sleepaway Camp?

I get to buy a Cary Elwes movie now, and even though it (unlike many Cary Elwes movies) wasn't funny before, it will be now.

Au contraire, mon frere.  Saw was extremely funny before, largely because Elwes' acting (and accent) are hysterically bad throughout.  The jumpcuts-in-lieu-of-directing and the completely retarded twist ending are pretty humorous, too.


I would like to jump in and defend my sweet Westley.

Um, that's a bit of a stretch.

(But I know what you mean -- one's favorite actors do tend to get forever stuck in one's head as their best roles! :) If that sentence is coherent, which I doubt, as I can't be coherent at 11 on a Friday night.)

I will buy this because 1) I own a copy of Saw already  2) this is no more disturbing to me than the ideas presented in I am Legend  3)Laughs from Kevin and Bill easily negate hollywood gore

I'm excited about this one.





Too many great images, this is going to turn into a very crowded DVD cover   ;D

I'm with you on that one.  Let's see a riff on the original 'Dawn Of The Dead'!  One of my absolute favorite horror films (I even made a pilgrimage to the real Monroeville Mall while travelling across country) but is it ever riffable.

So, Rifftrax Presents = Movies that Mike is too squeamish/wussy to do? :)

Seriously though, I think it's a great choice for riffing, because the movie's so bloody absurd.

Well if it gets us a Billy Jack film, then I am all for it.

(Actually, I am all for it anyway, but would be moreso for it than if not)

To thoughts.

"No", and "thank you."  "No" as in "hell no, I won't watch this" and "thank you" as I know this is an honest attempt to make me laugh, and that is appreciated.

It's Rifftrax Presents, it's experimental, and I want Rifftrax to try new things.

I just...can't do this one.  There's enough brutality and horror in the world without having to put up with this.

A tip of the hat and a wish that Rifftrax Presents is successful with this anyway.

I can see how this movie isn't for everybody, but the first Saw isn't nearly as gory or absurd as the sequels.  I can certainly see how this could be a good riff.  I thought the funniest thing about the movie was Danny Glovers character.   :D
