"That doesn't look very scary. More like a... six-foot turkey."

Hi folks, Erik from RiffTrax here. I scoured the catalog for more fun sci-fi riffs that I somehow haven't seen yet, and it turns out, Dinosaurus is one of them! So let's have a Scener Watch party, what do you say? The product page on our site has this to say about it:

Dinosaurus is a vintage 60s monster flick, complete with a caveman and drunk-looking stop motion dinosaurs (or are they dinosauruses? It’s never quite clear). The dinos find themselves unfrozen on an island chock full of stereotypes (stereotypuses?) including a square-jawed hero, a fat man-child sidekick named Dumpy, a kid who knows what’s really going on but gosh, gee golly, nobody will listen to him, and O’Leary, an Irishman so drunk and cartoonish he single-handedly inspired the formation of the Irish Anti-Defamation League. And, last but not least, the Island Manager (which is apparently a thing) whose hat and beard and general sliminess might just remind you of a certain fella whose interests include keeping the Master happy and slow pizza delivery.

Join me at this secret Scener link on Thursday, February 3rd at 3:30pm Pacific / 6:30pm Eastern. We'll stream through Vimeo, so you only need the Chrome browser running on a desktop or laptop computer, and the Scener Chrome extension. Then click the Join Party button at the link above when the time comes, and you're in! (Note: you'll need to register for a Scener account in order to participate in the chat.)

I'm really looking forward to this one, so I hope to see you there!

Erik
