I registered specifically to suggest this one.  If there's any doubt in your mind that this shouldn't get a track I present video evidence:

Am I the only one so drenched in Homestar Runner that I couldn't hear that movie title without thinking about the Thnikaman? :^)

LOL, you guys.


Wicker Man was SOOOOOOO painful, my mom & i were riffing it by about 1/2 way through.  so little happened in that movie i should have gained 2 hours from watching it.

It is a terrible horror movie that has Nicholas Cage clotheslining a woman while wearing a bear suit.  That alone should push it towards the top of mstable movies.

Correction: the coat hanger should be upside down.

That was easily the best scene in the movie.

I enjoyed the original a lot.  It was creepy and different and was actually trying to say something.  I have been steered away from seeing the remake.  The only way I would watch it is with Mike's help.

Jesus Christ...

I'm never watching a Nic Cage movie again after that.

The Wicker Man was awesome. Not by achieving through quality but inepitude. Hilarous movie.

ambitiously stupid

When punks start hasslin' decent people, I make it my buisness!

Listen Murdock, I'm sick and tired of your dead lobster...

My thoughts exactly. But don't make me watch it again, Mike.

Dude, can I get some wicker, man? 
I loved the ending when the most interesting thing to happen in the movie happens off camera:  WHACK! "Ow my legs!"  as the honey-women break Cage's legs (I assume).  Terrible movie.  Great Riffin' fodder.

Checked the unrated version, they did show his legs being broken, but even then the movie has so many embarassing scenes. My favorite would have to be the part where Nick is waiting at the docks and has a dream with-in a dream sequence, after waking up he shouts "God Damn it."

It was just one of those werid moments where he said something that the audience was thinking.

I saw the remake of When A Stranger Calls in a hotel recently (never seen the original). I thought it was one of the stupidest movies I've ever seen in my life. I kept riffing it throughout the duration. It was just so damn stupid I couldn't stop mocking it. But The Wicker Man (I've never seen either version) sounds like it takes the cake. Both of these prime pieces of stupid would make excellent RiffTrax fodder. Add in Zack "The Hack" Snyder's Dawn of the Dead, and you've got a nice RiffTrax trilogy of stupid horror remakes.
This iRiff will only be on sale for another few hours. Get it while it's cheap!
