Rifftrax Delivers Again
PostedAugust 21, 2010

from New Jersey
Last summer, Rifftrax Live's Plan 9 From Outer Space was one of the moviegoing highlights of my summer. Instead of just giving us a live rendition of the movie, Rifftrax went above and beyond with two songs from Jonathan Coulton, some shorts, and then of course the movie proper.
With REEFER MADNESS, the group had a bit more of a challenge ahead of them: the film itself - or at least, the version that they had the rights to screen - is only 66 minutes. And with no host or performances this time out, I wondered going in if the performance would leave me wanting.
Fortunately, the guys riffed on three distinct, bizarre shorts, as well as some cute originals for a guy from Something Awful. And then of course the movie itself. REEFER MADNESS is more bad-bad than good-bad, but as always, it was amazing and hilarious to watch these three guys apply their biting, hilarious, and singular sense of humor to such a ridiculous film.
So in sum, not as good as PLAN 9, but well worth my time and ticket price. These guys just put on a good show. At REEFER, they announced a Halloween show, and I could not be more excited.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
