Super Secret Mystery Show - Revealed!
almost 8 years ago – Tue, Mar 28, 2017 at 12:10:33 AM

Happy Monday, Backers!

When we launched this Kickstarter, we had to keep you in the dark about our third RiffTrax Live show for 2017. We’re pleased to finally be able to let the cat out of the bag - our Super Secret Mystery Show is Doctor Who: The Five Doctors!

 

We’ll be riffing this classic Who LIVE in theaters on August 17th (with an encore rebroadcast August 24th)! Tickets will go on sale April 14th through Fathom Events, but for now, you can head to RiffTrax.com/Live to get more info on this year’s slate of live events.

We wish we could have shared this sooner (time may be wibbly-wobbly, but it turns out - the legal process is even MORE so) — now that the secret’s out, we’re sure you’ll agree, it was worth the wait! And just like the Doctor, we’ll be back with more news to share soon.

- Mike, Kevin, and Bill.

THANK YOU!

We’ll keep this short and sweet:

A gigantic THANK YOU to every single one of our 8,602 backers for all of your support. The whole campaign has been absolutely amazing, and we hope you enjoyed the ride as much as we did.

We’ll be back with a HUGE update soon. For now, enjoy the rarely offered MEGA DISCOUNT with coupon code KICKSTARTERLOVE through tomorrow at Midnight PDT. It will take 20% off all riffs but our latest release (Day of The Animals) and gift cards.

You can also get tickets for Samurai Cop Live right now! The show is happening two nights only: April 13th and 18th. Go to RiffTrax.com/Samurai for tickets and more info.

If you’re up for seeing the show in person at the Belcourt Theatre in Nashville, select tickets are still available.

We’ll have information available about our next live shows (The Summer Shorts Beach Party and the Super Secret Mystery Show) on RiffTrax.com/live, but as Kickstarter backers, you will have an exclusive window to purchase tickets before anyone else.

Speaking of live shows - the Super Secret Mystery Show will be announced this Monday, March 27th. Go to RiffTrax.Com/Live then for more info.

But once again, thank you so much. We couldn’t do all the goofy things we do without each and every one of you. We hope to bring you some laughs very soon.

-Mike, Kevin, Bill and the whole RiffTrax Team.

Happy Friday backers!

We know we say this all the time, but it always bears repeating: our fans are positively amazing. In the last twenty four hours we’ve hit two more stretch goals - that’s four total in the last two days alone. We’ve been completely and totally overwhelmed by the level of support in the last few days but here’s what we have left to accomplish:

• 7,000 Backers: unlocks choosing SAMURAI COP Live show Blu-ray or DVD - at the $100 level and up! 
• 8,000 Backers: Just-the-Jokes WESTWORLD Riff! FREE to ALL Backers! 
• 9,000 Backers: STAR WARS - THE LAST JEDI Riff! FREE to ALL Backers! 
• 10,000 Backers: IT'S A WONDERFUL LIFE Riff! FREE to ALL Backers! 

We know we’re a ways away, and we need your help to keep this momentum up, but first we have a special way of saying thanks.

BONUS 20% OFF COUPON

Here’s an exclusive coupon code for EVERY backer to get 20% off their next order, good from now through the weekend. Just enter the code KICKSTARTERLOVE at checkout to receive this rarely offered MEGA DISCOUNT! (works for everything on the site but our latest release Day of the Animals and Gift Cards). You’ve given so much to us during this campaign, it only feels right to give you a little something back!

SUPER TANDEM RIFF VOTE

As you know, we recently hit our goal of 5,500 backers for an All Star Super Tandem Riff. As promised, here is our poll to vote for your choice for the riff. Either Batman v Superman, Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, Captain America: Civil War, or Avengers: Age of Ultron.

This poll ends at 5:00PM PDT tomorrow night - an hour before the Kickstarter campaign ends. Mike, Kevin, and Bill will announce the winner during our celebratory Kickstarter Live stream.

The poll is for backers only, so if you have friends or family who want to have their voice heard, tell them to back our Kickstarter ASAP!

Thanks again everyone, and stay tuned for another update from us later today!

Two Days Left!

Happy Thursday, Backers!

We’re just about in the last two days of the campaign, and we need every ounce of help we can get from you to help keep the momentum going.

STRETCH GOALS UPDATE

Thanks to you, in the last twenty-four hours alone, we’ve hit two major stretch goals - a DVD collection of Bridget and Mary Jo riffs, and our super tandem riff of a blockbuster that you’ll help decide. We’re super excited about both of these and we couldn’t be more grateful for your help in making them happen.

Now our next big stretch goals await. We’ll need more of your assistance to bring the lowest quality of wigs to the highest definition of physical media with Samurai Cop Live on Blu-Ray, or to bring our latest Kaiju riff, Mothra, to everyone’s RiffTrax libraries. We know we have a lot of ground to cover, but with you on our side, we know we can do it!

NEW REWARD LEVEL

You’ve asked - and we’ve listened! We’ve added a new $75 digital only tier to our campaign rewards - the ALL DIGITAL PACKAGE. If you’re on the $80 tier, or just below it, and want all the digital content without the exclusive Kickstarter shirt, then this is the reward for you!

Hang with us folks, we’re hitting the home stretch and we’ll need you with us to get there!

- Mike, Kevin, and Bill
