Q: What is an iRiff?
A: An iRiff is a home-made audio commentary that you can upload to the RiffTrax Store and sell to our thousands of daily visitors. You'll make 50% of the net revenue your iRiff generates, paid in quarterly installments on balances over $25.
Q: What do the different formats, NTSC and PAL, mean?
A: The short answer is that NTSC files are for people in North America, including the United States and Canada. PAL files are for users in regions other than Region 1, such as the United Kingdom and Australia. The long answer has to do with technical specifications of each format. NTSC and PAL have different framerates - meaning a PAL video actually is a bit faster than its NTSC counterpart, making it somewhat shorter. It's difficult to notice unless you have two versions of the same movie (or audio file) playing side-by-side; but eventually you'll notice the PAL version being ahead of the NTSC version. Sometimes the difference is as much as a few minutes! If you find that your mp3 file is constantly out of sync with the DVD you're watching, first make sure that you've downloaded the correct format of mp3 (NTSC for Region 1, PAL for elsewhere) and then check other things, such as the DVD version (Collector's Edition, Director's Cut, etc.) is correct for that mp3 file. These details are usually found on the product page. For more information on NTSC, as well as a list of countries that use it, click here. For PAL information use this link.

Underworld: Rise of the Lycans - The Two Man Band
By One Man BandSequels, prequels, remakes, and re-imaginings...for years, it seemed Hollywood had run out of ideas. But then came the Underworld series, with the most original concept yet: Vampires and werewolves fighting each other! And it only took a solitary sequel before the makers realized, "Hey! Let's make movies that happened BEFORE the first one! It worked for Lucas, right?"

TRON. We can't really identify it as a movie. It's a shared experience of nostalgia. Everyone we talk to remembers loving it, but can't remember when they last saw it. And so we, in our continued efforts to improve our community, have taken it upon ourselves to educate the viewing public on just how bad this film really was.
Jean's brother Steve is bringing his roommate home from college. They're having a party, and it just has to turn out right! This 1950 educational film warns us that our party will be a disaster without careful library research. This is Team Swizzlebeef's long-awaited debut.
Please note: this is perhaps the only iRiff featuring bacon, furries, and a panda.
In 2007, Nicolas Cage and Eva Mendes starred in the epic film adaptation of Marvel Comic's supernatural superhero, Ghost Rider!
...thankfully, this 80's educational short on bus safety has absolutely nothing to do with that.
What "solitary" figure in American folk lore deserves to be taken down a peg or two less than the Lone Ranger? Well strap on your spurs because OneWallCinema is about to do just that. Firing silver bullets of wit and sarcasm, k1 and K2 take you on a 79 minute ride full of laughter and awkwardness as they tackle the beloved Lone Ranger and his cringe-worthy sidekick Tonto. Hi ho Rifftrax aweigh!*
How can you make better use of your leisure time? Damned if we know, but maybe you'll know after watching Team Swizzlebeef take on this 50's educational short!
Die Hard may qualify with some of you as a "quality" flick, but think about what it brought you: The star power neccessary for Bruce Willis to make Hudson Hawk. The premiere of Severus Snape. The man who went on to direct Speed. And every cringeworthy action flick cliche? It was spawned HERE! How can you pass this up? We certainly didn't, and neither did the dozens of writers who came along for the ride.
Do you find yourself losing sleep at night waiting for the next Hollywood smash with time travel as it’s only major plot device? Is it impossible for you to get enough of Paul Walker? Do you like arrows? Then Timeline is the movie for you.
Chinese action director John Woo (no doubt cheered on by his own last name) takes on the world of Mission: Impossible with all the great performances of Broken Arrow and all the plausibility of Face/Off (not to mention face removal and off-putting faces...but I digress).
Get Ready... to rush out of the Cineplex! Sure, 1993 was a more innocent time. The world wasn't burdened with the knowledge of horrible things like reality television, the Backstreet Boys, Enron loopholes, or Star Wars prequels. So it comes as no shock that such a naive world could be snookered into thinking that a bus could actually fly. Now, in a more cynical age, Chris, Todd, and Danuuc have stepped forward to point out the elephant in the room... which happens to actually be an exploding hunk of public transportation.
Down to Earth maniac, Gary Slasher, and his delightfully dead wife, Erin, are set to tackle one of the most important horror movies ever -- 1980’s Friday the 13th.
Sean Cunningham’s classic is dissected by the sharp tongues of this deadly duo whose bitterness over not having made it big in the horror industry has driven them mad.
