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.

Alright, pre-show comprises of entirely new (new to us) footage of Eric Freeman, including an 80's episode of Divorce Court.
Then, at the top of the coming hour, prepare to revisit Silent Night Deadly Night, Part 2.

Aw c'mon, I can't believe you didn't say "it's time to take out the trash!"
Happy Life Day, everyone!
It's that time of year to dive into The Star Wars Holiday Special.
This fucking sucks so much...
Christmas and Star Wars. Star Wars and Christmas.
Grab your hot cocoa and your crystal Life Day orb, and cozy up with the unparalleled and downright AWFUL Star Wars Holiday Special.

Never thought there'd be a Christmas where I feel like Santa here. Merry Christmas, everyone.
What's eatin' you, chief?
Happy Festivus from the rest of us! See you later for the airing of grievances!
War is God.
Just saw an ad for A Soldier's Play: a riveting new drama from the Roundabout Theatre Company starring David Alan Grier. All I could think about was Don Simmons singing "Tie a Yellow Ribbon 'Round the Old Oak Tree".
Happy Boxing Day, everyone!
Hope everyone had a Happy Holiday. I finally got to visit a doctor yesterday and get an entire pharmacy's stock of drugs and medicines to kick this shit that's been making me miserable all week (Yes, even on Christmas). And I'm ready to get us back into the swing of things.
Oh, HO-OH-HOOOOOOOooooooooo...
This Kung Fu Friday, our martial arts is getting a bit more Spaghetti Western flair. Meet Shanghai Joe.
This trailer may be recorded on a potato, but the musical score (courtesy of one of Ennio Morricone's collaborators) is about as divine as it gets...
Oh, HO-OH-HOOOOOOooooooooooooooooo...
We're back! And we're kicking off Kung Fu Friday with the all-singing, all-dancing Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles—not that real pizza shit concert tape from Radio City Music Hall but something that somehow manages to turn out even worse.
Then, at the top of the coming hour, we meet Shanghai Joe!

Difficult to pass up on this once you feast your eyes on what the main character looks like.
The most that I read into this is "a Swedish ripoff (Dubbed in English) of Casper the Friendly Ghost with the most haunting dolls' eyes."
Meet The Little Ghost...
Now a lurker. See you at the forums.
Such haunting eyes.
To win, you need to adapt, and to adapt, you need to be able to laugh away all the restraints. Everything holding you back.
Alright, starting off tonight with some Rubik's Cube cartoon (with some vintage 80's TV commercials).
Then, at the top of the coming hour, get set for Casper's Swedish cousin The Little Ghost...

There are multiple movies out there bearing a title like Nine Lives.
The one I place at the top of my list (which we've never been able to get a hold of here) was some early-2000's direct-to-video horror movie starring Paris Hilton, which I've heard features a scene in which a group of morons somehow manage to break a cell phone with a bed. Some day, I really need to see it to believe it.
Anyway, tonight's Nine Lives (also called Unstoppable) stars Wesley Snipes as a former spec-ops soldier with severe PTSD... who is injected with a powerful hallucinogen by some unsavory people who mistake him for somebody else (I hate it when that happens). Now he must try and find the antidote while he battles his enemies, inner demons, and the illusions of his drug-induced state before he dies.
Sounds complicated.
We start off tonight with some mondo weirdness from Vice and visit some other corners of YouTube.
Then, at the top the coming hour, Wesley Snipes has Nine Lives, and some of them are already serving life sentences for tax evasion...

Last (original) movie of 2019 tonight.
Heading back for some spaghetti western fare in the form of a little tale about an amnesiac gunfighter, aided by a sympathetic outlaw, trying to piece back together his own identity and past.
Meet A Man Called Noon...
Okay, so Myst wanted to share a behind-the-scenes video on "The Making of Battlefield Earth" for some reason... and then I got a video from a rather peculiar series on VICE which... leaves many questions unanswered by the end of every episode.
Then, at the top of the coming hour, we travel to the anarchic wild west to meet A Man Called Noon.

I got a bunch of videos from VICE for the hell of it.
Then, at the top of the coming hour, we wave goodbye to 2019 and pray for the Night of the Comet (One of these days, I swear...).

You are all ordered by divine mandate to watch this video.
Tonight, we start off 2020 with a crime thriller about a fancy computer chip desired by all the world's spookiest intelligence agencies, and poor old Margot Kidder is stuck in the middle of it all.
This is Keeping Track...
Alright, we're off with an extensive backstory behind Eiffel 65's europop dance hit.
Then, at the top of the coming hour, we're Keeping Track of Margot Kidder, playing a hapless banker caught in a cat-and-mouse game between competing international intelligence agencies.
