only $0.99 at Rifftrax.com
Return to the days of yore as THE BACK ROW presents the first episode of the kidvid ‘classic’ JOHNNY SOKKO. Join the adventures of young Johnny as he narrowly avoids horrible violent death from both giant rubber monsters and the completely inept Gargoyle Gang using his wits, his knee socks & short-shorts and of course, his freakin’ GIANT FLYING ROBOT that he jacked from a kidnapped professor who was nice enough to explain how it operates before being murdered less than 3 minutes later.
riffer mister X takes this relic from his youth head on and discovers that what you loved a child may make you have to accept the fact that you were a pretty stupid child…and always wishes it was ULTRAMAN instead.

Better living through chemistry 50′s style as Rifftrax iRiffs presents “The Relaxed Wife”- a vintage short from Pfizer. Join riffer mister X (professional smart-ass) as he tackles all this bizarre little film tosses at him:
-see an actor who’s mugging makes Jim Carrey seem subtle
-hear pathologically whimsical music that will test your sanity
-endure a rhyming narrator who makes the poetry of Jewel sound like ee cummings
Complete with disembodied arms coming out of desks, a man with a pressure cooker head and a product we never get to see, “The Relaxed Wife” is a trippy prescription drug short that makes you think the makers were on something a little stronger when they made it. Fortunately the snarky, silly and deceptively crass commentary by mister X is the cure for this one.

On sale, Rifftrax’s comedy commentary on Batman and Robin featuring contributions from detroit’s mister X.
For those who don’t know Rifftrax, it’s the new project from the guys who used to do Mystery Science Theater 3000-they make fun of sh*t and do a really good job of it, but instead of a TV show, you download their commentary as an Mp3 and play it along with the movie. These guys are an inspiration to X and Rob Boombostic (even though we started doing own own riffs in college before we knew the show existed, so don’t call us a rip-off you uppity bastard) and X is honored to write for his heroes.
