The Top 50 Movies You Want Rifftrax to Riff Countdown 2010!

Might want to swap in a different image for The Wizard there.

uuuuuuuh, why?

Because this is what's showing:

Worst...production...still...ever.

Yeah...if you're a business why would you want your product shown somewhere where it could inspire people to buy it?

NintendoLife are a Nintendo game review site and they won't make any money from someone buying a copy of The Wizard, while they may lose money via bandwidth if their images get hotlinked. I wouldn't think it would be very much money, but I guess something like a video game site might get hotlinked a lot and maybe it would add up.

29. The Giant Claw - (1957) - 52 points
(3 of 24 lists. Highest ranking - #3 gojikranz)

Wonder how many people learned about this one thanks to James Rolfe (the good 'ol Angry Video Game Nerd and host of Cinemassacre's Monster Madness.)

believe it or not i saw it on VHS back in the day.  i bet i was compelled by the very nice cover art.  even as a kid i felt the film was quite a failure especially compared to my then and now favorite of godzilla.

I heard of this in the movie It Came From Hollywood.  And as 50's B movies go it's only slightly worse than The Deadly Mantis or The Black Scorpion....until the effects shots.     And then it goes over the edge.

Yeah, I also saw it in It Came From Hollywood.

Ew, the expressions on their faces imply some sort of horrible slash fiction is impending.
