Not what i thought it would be ^ Luckily you have somebody riffing this snore-fest of a movie otherwise it would be unwatchable it almost is, even with the guys riffing it. That's how bad this movie is i very much agree with what another reviewer said about them missing great moments yes, they certainly did, they just seemed a bit out of it in this one, very silent in parts that could have been over the top funny.
You have one character who says nothing, another who is clearly over acting he loses you (and the plot) because he just keeps on talking, on top that you got a guy who is the typical nerdy "up tight white guy" who you want to punch yourself, because he complains about everything.
Oh well, can't make em' all perfect it is good for a laugh or so, if you really want to see them in top form get.. 'Hollywood after dark', "Plan nine from outer space live!" (the short is as good as the movie itself)"Wild Women of Wongo" and "Planet of the Dinosaurs" BTW an absolute Howl! their fifties mockumentary "shorts" are hysterical too.
Even zombies can be funny. ^ If you like MST3K, you will laugh at this video. Mike and the guys are in top form as they demonstrate the lighter side of flesh-eating mutants (and their victims !).
They're coming to get you, Riffer... ^ This is easily my favorite of the four RiffTrax DVDs in my collection. They've taken a cult horror film which I've never really cared much for and turned it into one of the best riffs since the MST3K version of "Santa Claus Conquers The Martians". Unfortunately, it's not as 'family friendly' as some of the other shows, what with the nakey zombie shambling around outside of the house and the bodies being ripped apart and eaten.
Rifftrax: Night of the Living Dead ^ This one is great, and I strongly recommend it. The movie in itself is a scream; and the rifs are hilarious icing on a very funny cake.
Zombie Shocker gets Riffed for Fun ^ This old black and white movie was cheaply made but became a Cult Hit shock horror film that started the Flesh-Eating Zombie movie craze. The old MST3K crew of Mike Nelson, Kevin Murphy and Bill Corbett take it on with quite a few funny riffs. Some don't quite hit the spot, and the guys miss some choice moments to riff, but that's always the case with Rifftrax. One of the better ones was, "A Zombie's Worst enemy, a Clothesline." The clueless young couple who try to escape the zombies and the ultra-Angry family man get lots of attention. Rifftrax does not include old MST3K things like skits, sets, or the Bots. You never See the guys in any form. You simply HEAR them from the beginning to the end of the movie. Not even an Intro!
I also recommend Rifftrax "House on Haunted Hill." It's terrific.
