Another fantastic live RiffTrax event, sadly now passed. This time, instead of a movie classic, we were treated to a series of shorts and commercials, all riffed by the trio including Weird Al Yankovic as a guest during one of the shorts. As you might have guessed, the shorts favored Christmas themes and generally followed fairly basic principles of getting the kids to sleep, treated them to some demented night time night terror featuring Santa, and then watching as they wake to a world twisted by their nightmares. Alright, probably a little more traditional than that, but I swear, these old-timey films are CREEPY! Seriously, I had no idea there was so much unintentional sexual innuendo in old films... And the treatment of women, it was like watching an episode of Madmen with less smoking and liquor and men with possibly red outfits and pillows under their jackets. Unfortunately, the weakest short of them all was the one in which Weird Al guest riffed. It wasn't holiday themed and basically just featured singing creepy guys making a pork dinner. *shrug*Overall, I had a lot of fun, laughed a lot, and the audience was clearly into it, which always makes things better.
