RiffTrax Shorts

Just like every movie ever has somehow been made with Kevin Bacon or someone related to him, this short teaches us that every meal ever eaten can be made with Campbells Soup. Mmmmm soup! Mmmmm Bacon! So pull up a bowl of soup, settle in, and prepare to be surprised, delighted, and - spoiler alert - disgusted.

Who's not getting angry in this short? No one. Which is to say, everyone is getting angry. And who's everyone? Kids. Adorable 1950s kids with names like Priscilla and Carol, and oceans of rage right under the surface. From jump rope gone wrong to a flaky friend canceling plans, virtually anything can set these kids off into a punch-throwing, spittle-flecked tantrum.

On Guard - Bunco! provides a hard-hitting and, if you take good notes, potentially lucrative look into the world of con-men! Scams covered include "The Encyclopedia Flim Flamica" "The Widow's Bankroll Do-see-do" and the always crowd-pleasing "Paint a Guy's Roof then Threaten to Beat Him Up." For good measure there's a grand finale involving needless racism!

It's a sweet classic tale, all about a boy and his dog. Except the boy is an irritable loner who doesn't play well with others, and the dog talks to him and tells him what to do. Nothing ominous or terrifying about that, right? Fortunately this particular dog is less into commanding murders and more into team-building exercises and being a nice kid, that kind of stuff.

If you're moping in your bedroom right now waiting for the party invitation phone call that may or may not come, why not pass the time by watching a short on social acceptability. While the short will do its best to make you even more sad and depressed, the cleansing comedy of Bridget and Mary Jo will make you feel as great as a whole bag of Doritos.

A short from the golden age of space travel, when it was mostly about putting confused animals in giant explosive rockets and seeing what happened. But the twist this time is that the endangered mouse is a young boy's beloved pet. Will the boy save his mouse? Will the rocket launch go off as planned? It's time to head to the launchpad and find out. Join the guys for The Tiny Astronaut!
