My Top Ten RiffTrax VoD Releases

As regular readers of this site know, I am an avid fan of RiffTrax.  In fact, I enjoy watching RiffTrax videos almost more than watching anything on TV.

This time of year is great for us RiffTrax fans, because we are right in the middle of the RiffTrax Live season.  The live riff of Sharknado was outstanding, and I am really anticipating upcoming Godzilla '98, Anaconda, and unannounced Christmas Riff (rumored to be Santa & The Ice Cream Bunny).  Couple that with the barrage of VoDs and Shorts that RiffTrax has been releasing, and you have before you a happy man (with a sad wallet).

Because of this near euphoric state I find myself in, and with some of the recent VoDs that have been absolutely bonkers, I decided it was time to make an updated list of my top favorite VoD releases.

Now, I have done some lists before of RiffTrax VoD essentials, but those have all been movies that I think every RiffTrax fan should see.  They were not necessarily in my top ten.

Five Must-Have RiffTrax Video on Demand Movies

Last week, I gave you a list of five RiffTrax Shorts that you absolutely need to purchase.  This time, I have another RiffTrax list: Five Must-Have RiffTrax Video on Demand Movies.

These are the videos that will really take you back to the glory of MST3K.  The only thing missing are commercial breaks and the skit segments.  And the weird editing decisions that were sometimes made.

The movies on this list are not just my own personal choices, but they are favorites of the RiffTrax faithful.

HMM '12 Day 26: Mars Attacks

It's October! That means two very important things: Pumpkin Pie Pop-Tarts are here, and Halloween is near! My favorite thing to do in October to prepare myself for Halloween is to, of course, watch movies that I feel best exemplify the season. Now, this doesn't just mean extreme gore fests (of course, I do love me some gore), but I like to include movies that have that Halloween feel. Anyway, let's get to Day 26 of Halloween Movie Madness 2012!

Mars Attacks
(Warner Bros., 1996)

Today's movie is Mars Attacks.  This movie is based off of the series of Mars Attacks trading cards put out by Topps in 1962.  The cards were very violent (and cool) in their depictions of the Martian invasion.  The movie also graphically depicts the deaths of innumerable people, and there's nothing wrong with that.
