Next RiffTrax – Troll 2

Troll 2 will be the next RiffTrax target, with SomethingAwful.com’s Lowtax as the special guest riffer.

Troll 2

Troll 2 has gained momentum recently and surged in popularity. I myself have fond memories of making fun of the film when it aired on Cinemax when I was around 12 or so. It has become ubiquitous with bad movie sites, and I’ve even condsidered doing it myself, but I have been holding back since it started having midnight screenings with the original castmembers. It is the same reason I haven’t bothered with Battlefield Earth, as there are so many good movies out there to make targets out of, you have to shake it up a bit. Of course, I’ll still be attacking any Uwe Boll film that hits theaters, because I like going after him. And one day I might just feel like tackling Troll 2 myself.

Postal Trailer hits web, web cries

Uwe Boll tries to get around the fact taht he sucks by making a movie that is supposed to suck, except it sucks for entirely different reasons.

This is the version of the trailer where you DON’T see Dave Foley’s penis.

Yeah.

New review: Gryphon

SciFi Channel’s latest is also my lastest movie review. It’s about as unremarkable as you can get for a SciFi Channel film, not terrible, not good, not anything. Click here to read Gryphon.

Mike Nelson Lied to me!!!

The newest Rifftrack will be Battlefield Earth, done by all three of the FilmCrew. Oddly enough, that’s the specific film Mike Nelson said they were going to wait a while on during RiffTrax Live! So I got lied to by Mike Nelson, which was a pleasant surprise, as I hope they destroy that horrid mess of a film!

New Review: Emmanuelle 2000: Emmanuelle in Paradise

Put up a new review for Emmanuelle 2000: Emmanuelle in Paradise. The story about a girl who bones anything and everything she can find. Movies that are 1/3 sex scenes make for quick writing during busy school seasons, but we’ll have something special up later in the week, after the upcoming disappointing Razzie nominations get posted on Monday. Yes, the Tarsies will be back for 2007!

Also added a video from Snakes on a Plane.
