THE VISITOR May 13th + help select the next batch of Turkeys!
Added 2021-05-13 00:04:51 +0000 UTCHi again, folks! Erik here, once again. I hope you're not sick of me yet!
Tomorrow afternoon (Thursday May 13th), please join me for a watch party featuring yet another riff I haven't seen - but this time, of a movie that I have seen, and already own on Blu-ray: The Visitor! It's a 1970s mashup sci-fi/fantasy/horror that will have you going "Huh?"
Visit The Traxian Room on Scener at 3:30pm Pacific / 6:30pm Eastern, and when the Join Party button appears, click it and enter the code LANCE. (As in Lance Henriksen, who is in this great film, but who mostly does B-movies about Bigfoot now.) Don't forget to follow the Traxian Room account, and configure notifications in your Scener profile to get notified whenever we schedule a new party.
As with all Scener watch parties, you'll need a desktop/laptop running Google Chrome and the Scener Chrome extension — or, you can follow along with your own copy of the riff on any other device you have handy, if you're joining the Scener Watch Party from a mobile device or tablet.
Last but not least, here I have some choice choices for our future Turkey Thursdays. As streaming services rotate their movies to include some we've riffed, I'm curious to know what you folks think we should watch!
So please choose your favorites below, and of course, feel free to suggest anything else in the comments. And I'll see you tomorrow for The Visitor!!
Your pal,
Erik
P.S. If you haven't already, we're looking for some of the best jokes and moments from the last 5 years of RiffTrax to add to our 15-year anniversary real, that we'll post here as well as on our July 20th anniversary. You can join the chorus by letting us know what clips you think we should include in the comments right here.

2021-05-19 04:23:55 +0000 UTCI just listened to the How Did This Get Made podcast talk about this movie on a recent episode. Great timing!

2021-05-13 15:54:39 +0000 UTCI should have specified that it's the 1995 MK, but your point is still valid!
Erik Peterson
2021-05-13 15:37:59 +0000 UTCFair enough! I'm curious to know if the folks at Scener have been able to investigate those issues so we can get them resolved. I'll find out!

2021-05-13 15:15:19 +0000 UTCUh, I checked Disney+ and I couldn't find X-Men: The Last Stand. Are you sure it's there?

2021-05-13 12:22:24 +0000 UTCHi, Erik. Never get tired of you because you always bring good things our way. I vote for MK for my birthday 🎂. Thanks very much again

2021-05-13 02:24:15 +0000 UTCAmazon Prime gives me fits with Scener so I’m voting for everything that’s not on there :-p

2021-05-13 01:24:31 +0000 UTCI am all for riffing Mortal Kombat (It is the worst movie I've watched that wasn't being riffed), however, I think a riff of The Sixth Sense or Day After Tomorrow would be amazing!
Ariel Freeman
2021-05-13 01:21:15 +0000 UTCGaming the system! I like it.
Erik Peterson
2021-05-13 00:37:04 +0000 UTCI choose them all. That way, I win either way.
