What we’re about
Talking over a movie: most people hate it! Except sometimes they don't! When they don't, it's either a DVD commentary track or a movie riffing show, and we're here for the latter.
The art form known as movie riffing was popularized with the show Mystery Science Theater 3000, and it has only exploded since then, and here in Chicago it happens a lot! MST3k is back with a second new season on Netflix while old episodes run on Pluto.tv and pretty much anywhere online you'd care to look, and Rifftrax is up to three live broadcasts a year, but more important is the LIVE riffing.
We keep you up to date on local shows like VHS Comedy, where comedians riff the craziest VHS tapes your hosts can find as they stop by garage sales and thrift stores while touring the country, as well as big-name shows like the MADS from MST3k, Jonah Ray, Hampton Yount, and more. Finally, Chicago's own movie riffing crew, Down In Front, hosts a monthly scripted riffing show at @North bar featuring blockbuster films and oddities alike!
