RiffTrax: The Galaxy Invader is a comedy sci-fi movie made in 2011 that stars Michael J. Nelson, Bill Corbett, and Kevin Murphy. This movie is a classic riff-style comedy where three men provide some hilarious commentary on a B-movie from the 1980s, The Galaxy Invader. The Galaxy Invader is a low-budget sci-fi movie that takes place in the rural town of Mountaincrest. The movie follows a man who stumbles upon an alien spaceship that has crashed in the woods. The alien pilot survives the crash, and with the help of the man, tries to repair its spaceship and make its way back home. However, the two soon find themselves in danger when a group of hunters sets out to capture the alien for themselves.
The RiffTrax trio provides a non-stop stream of laughs as they poke fun at the cheesy acting, special effects, and plot holes of the movie. Michael J. Nelson, Bill Corbett, and Kevin Murphy, who were formerly part of the cast of Mystery Science Theater 3000, showcase their trademark brand of dry wit and sarcastic humor in their commentary.
The trio's comedic commentary is loaded with plenty of references to pop culture, ranging from the Pink Floyd song "Dark Side of the Moon" to the 1960s TV show "Get Smart." There are also a lot of jokes about the actors in the movie, including one who looks like John Denver and another who has a striking resemblance to the wrestler Andre the Giant.
In addition to their comedic commentary, RiffTrax also includes several side-splitting skits throughout the movie. For example, in one skit, they create a fake infomercial for a product called the "Biscuit Hammer," which is supposed to be used to tenderize meat but ends up being hilariously impractical.
Overall, RiffTrax: The Galaxy Invader is a must-see for fans of B-movie humor or RiffTrax's unique style of comedy. The movie may not be a masterpiece of cinema, but with Michael J. Nelson, Bill Corbett, and Kevin Murphy providing their hilarious commentary, it makes for an entertaining and memorable viewing experience.
