One of my favorites. Smile on the face is worth a million bucks after this crapy storm in NC. Yes, Rifftrax was the first thing I watched when power and internet came on. Besides sending emails to family and watching the news of course.
Really love this riff. I sleep with headphones listening to Rifftrax and this is what I had on repeat last night. Big Mick and David Warner at their peak in this film
Beautiful, just beautiful. My little brother and I knew it was a Paul Matthews movie the moment we smelled the bareley post-Apartheid stank of Fantasy-Britain-South-Africa. And hey, it's good to see Evie and Kyle (also Ben in The Sorcerer's Apprentice) from The Fairy King of Ar getting to work with the late David Warner, who is also in this movie for some reason (although less prominently than in Quest of the Delta Knights, where he technically plays three different characters if we include the offscreen narrator). Excellent riffing as always, you guys had us in stitches!
Oh man, I knew the atmosphere was familiar, but it's the Sorcerer's apprentice that it reminded me of (and probably the Rifftrax release of it). Gosh, the accents somehow are off the chart.
Let me get this straight. Girl wills a contract with an extraplanar creature into existence, then upon SEEING it with her own eyes as an immaculate conception/deus ex machina, stops short of cursing "god?" Oh, this is going to be SO good.
Poor ol' David Warner; I can't think of any other actors besides Tim Curry or Malcom McDowell who had so much skill and yet consistently ended up in total crap. Gotta' give him credit though that he brought as much dignity as he could to his roles (yes, even the pee-throwing ones!).
But nobody ever said they were bad actors. If anything, they mastered the skill of completely owning the movies and shows they were in, without drawing ire.
This is actually a pretty charming kids movie in it's own way. The riffs point out it's sillyness to adults but as a child I bet I would have loved this movie.
Yeah. It was pretty endearing in a low budget way. I can Imagine lots of little ones awed by the blue unicorn and really liking this. I dont think the guys punished it like ACTUAL bad movies. But it needed a little roast :)
I would have been bored myself. It reminds me of Prancer and a bunch of similar Magical Animal movies. I liked the animals but them playing second fiddle to really dull people and no real plot coming around always bored me. Even in my biggest horse loving stage, I would have been asleep halfway through.
"polly, if you don't want to go to boarding school, you can live with grandad... just so long as you don't live with me and my new husband while i start a proper family!"
Many Brit actors do because they work for a living. They will often take anything offered if they are available. Guinness took Star Wars as a favour to a friend.
Boy, Hasbro really sold themselves out with this one. Update following the premiere: Omg that was a blast to rewatch, thanks for doing this, guys! Also, am I the only one who is reading "The SMUTS foundation" at 1:17:01 or am I on something?? 😳
Geezus, these fucking movies. I don't know what flavor of bad I like best, but I feel like stupid bad mixed with cheesy bad that's also way more ambitious than it should be is my favorite kind.

anyone else think the unicorn farm property looks like the same "set" as the previously riffed "the deadly bees"? multiple buildings with horse stables - both filmed somewhere in England?
I'm not sure when this movie takes place.the cars look like 90s cars the dude says ring me mobile,but did a SLR camera that looks like a k 1000 use a flash bulb like that? I could be totally wrong,but it just looks out of place.

“Get me Scarlet Johansson to star in my film!” “Um, we don’t have that kind of money…” “Fine. Then get me Peter O’Toole to star as the grandpa!!” “Uh, I told you he’s already turned us down because of the money, he read the script and….” “You’re no help! OK, we’ll hire Leonard Decrapio to star as the young love interest who….what’s that look?” “ Leo is in his late twenties here in the year 2,000.” “Why would you say it that way?!? Alright, we will hire Pixar to do the computer animation!” “Uh, once again, we don’t have the budget. Besides, you already told me I could hire my grandson to render the baby unicorn and we only have to pay him in slim-Jim’s and Mountain Dew.” “You’re the worst assistant…” “Well that’s what you get for trying to make a movie for $150.” “You’re fired!” “Fine. I’ll just go back to cleaning portapotties.” “…….”
Director just before filming: "Everyone come grab an accent out of the hat!"
That's the most realistic thing about this movie. Cross the street in Britain and it's an entirely different accent and culture.
I miss David Warner: he NEVER phoned it in. Absolute professional
Heeeey, the guy in Delta Knights is ALSO David Warner!
@Pawnband but did YOU know that Lord Vulchair and the beggar were BOTH played by David Warner?!?!?

"All right, the fun's over."
"I'm sure it is, but do you really want to admit that two minutes into your film?"
"Tell your dad D.B. I hope they never find him" 🤣
I love how in the very first scene, Polly gets hit in the head with a -soccer- football ball, and in the very next shot, her knee is injured.
I’m assuming she scraped it when she fell down.
I prefer to think she was put in a coma from the ball and the rest of the movie was just her hallucination.
the 'thonk' to head recoil,... priceless
I will say this, I was not expecting "movie ends with Unicorn exploding" on my bad film bingo card.
Since it's all CGI, I just wonder what the actors were told they were reacting to.
"The unicorn flies off and showers the countryside with wonderful magic!"
Then later they watch the finished product and are all like "WTF the goddamn unicorn just EXPLODED."
Thanks for telling me, I;'ve never seen this, never will, your a frien.
Since it first aired in 1961, the voice of Mr. Ed is STILL the gold standard for the talking horse.
Love it!
I've discovered talking to horses in the Mr. Ed voice startles them, which is scary for a creature that can kick 50 IQ points out of your cranium.

I love how the guys either went Aussie or Beatles with their accents

Isn't this the same place that the Fairy King was filmed? I recognize the house and several of the actors.
It's South Africa. Probably a similar place, if not the same.
Cool, this one is on here now, along with The Sorcerer's Apprentice, The Fairy King Of Ar, and Star Games. Now we just need Merlin: The Return!
Turns out just because a horse is laying down, doesn't mean anything is wrong. Sometimes they do rest that way.
It’s the same boy from Sorcerer’s Apprentice 😉
The South African Culkin
Yeah, he was also in an advert for Maggie Two Minute Noodles. I think he's a photographer now
5:12. Discount Alan Rickman...

"Grandpa's gotta get an indoor toilet". 😂
I can’t get over Polly’s mom telling the grandfather he can’t raise Polly on his own. Ma’am why aren’t you raising your own child🤔
I don't she's her mom. Polly says "aunt Lucy" a couple times.
In the wild west, the 6 villains would have been put to death for horse thievery. A tragically lost opportunity here.

Add Jeffrey Combs to the list.
But nobody ever said they were bad actors.

Before the Potter series this _was_ the British film industry. & this story made more sense than any of those.
“Thats muh pee!”
I'm impressed RiffTrax made a reference to The Silver Chair. That book isn't a super big part of pop culture.
How did this movie get so many names in it, not great names mind you, but known people.
This is actually a pretty charming kids movie in it's own way. The riffs point out it's sillyness to adults but as a child I bet I would have loved this movie.
Noo
Felt the same about Quest of the Delta Knights.
David Warner must just have that effect.
A movie doesn't have to be bad for riffing.
Really bad movies require no riffing.

People often have trouble differentiating the South African and British accents. For example, South Africans find it exceptionally difficult.
Often they think it's Australian.
They sound more like Dutch than English. How can you not tell the difference? You listen to a northern accent an immediately think south African?
