Our Next Feature Presentation: The Stuff (10/12)

Join Us Saturday, October 12th @ ~8:00PM (US/EDT) Here: http://cytu.be/r/TroperCoven


For the uninitiated... A contingent of tropers (mostly from across America) holds regular get-togethers over the Interwebs on this site called Synchtube which lets individuals, such as ourselves, open and join in text-based chatrooms within typical web browsers (Firefox, Chrome, et. al.) that allow the chat participants to view YouTube videos in synchronization with everyone else present (without even needing to set up an account)... and we've decided to use said chatrooms to play cheeseball webvideos and feature-length movies found in the public domain which stretch all the way from letters B to Z, which everyone subsequently riffs on a la MST3K.

For over EIGHT years, everybody who gets involved mostly finds good enjoymentnote  in calling out tropes that are recognized in the videos and stories and coming up with jokes to fling back at whatever's happening on the screen, many of which turn into various in-jokes and running gags (a Coven Glossary is kept and maintained for everyone's help and convenience HERE) to repeat in the chat.

We're always looking for new ways to better coordinate and expand our activities and are more than happy to welcome newcomers interested in joining our gatherings.

[up]Speaking of endurance trials, I've added Cradle of Fear to the OP Suggestions List a day or two ago and owned up there to taking more than one attempt to get through the whole thing (none of which have been successful).

I'll bank on it being worse than Birdemic; in addition to its own share of terrible, low-budget effects, CoF boasts Cradle Of Filth's lead singer in his full-on girlygoth getup, sexual content that does put it on par with softcore pornography scenes, a couple of Filth's shitty tunes on the soundtrack which never in the least bit compliment the visual content, and a 30-minute longer runtime.

Also, made a few tweaks to the 'Abraxas' video to fit in Jim Belushi's extraordinary cameo as the idiot school principal.

Zombies.

Japanese rock musician fights zombies and aliens with The Power of Rock.

Guy falls in love with girl, only to find out that she's actually biologically male. He's eventually okay with it.

Another loving couple dies, only to reunite as zombies.

No one wears any pants, and the music isn't very good.

Did I miss anything?

Technically only two people don't wear trousers. I suspect they spend their budget on the finale and had to cut down on wardrobes.

Good luck guys. Try not to lose your will to live. Sadly, I have to work this evening, so I'll be missing it.
