Over the years, a lot of you have enjoyed, suffered through, endured or just plain missed copious opportunities to riff on stills from the atrocious promotional film, A Visit to Santa on IS. Well, now this string of blown bulbs has gotten the full Rifftrax on demand treatment. [Technical aside: if you installed the divx player as admin on windows, you've got to run it as admin. If it insists you upgrade, that may be the problem.] To celebrate its Rifftraxing, it’ll be running again on IS at 1 PM on Christmas.

Maybe you cappers can remember themes you hit on in previous IS showings that also appeared in the professional version. I know those tacky tacky Christmas cards I sold through cafepress a few years back used a screengrab from this movie and a joke very similar to the one in the Rifftrax. Of course, one of the reasons I felt comfortable selling such tacky cards was because the joke was almost mandatory, so I don’t feel particularly ripped off or proud. Ok, maybe a little proud, or I’d have kept my mouth shut about it.
