RiffTrax Shorts Season 5 Episode 5 5-05

RiffTrax Shorts is a comedy series that features rib-tickling commentary on a selection of short films by some of the funniest people on the planet. The series showcases movie spoofs, educational films, and commercials from the past that are often ridiculous, overly dramatic and unintentionally funny. The humor of the show is delivered through witty, off-beat commentary that pokes fun at the cheesy movies and their bizarre plotlines.

In Season 5 Episode 5, RiffTrax Shorts takes on a fresh batch of ridiculous short films that will have viewers howling with laughter. Episode 5-05 is packed with some of the weirdest short films produced in Hollywood.

The first piece that the RiffTrax crew has modified is called "Door to Door Maniac." The film is about a vacuum cleaner salesman who becomes increasingly insane as he tries to sell his products door to door. With hilarious commentary from the RiffTrax crew, viewers get to watch the sales pitch slowly turn into something that resembles a hostage situation.

The second short film in episode 5-05 is entitled "Hired!" In this film, we get to see the over-the-top portrayal of what a day in the life of an office worker was like in the early 1950s. As the RiffTrax commentators point out, the boss is a tyrant, the employees are all miserable, and the "fantastic" new machine that has arrived in the office only adds to the chaos.

Next up is "A Date with Your Family." This is a disturbing short film that aims to teach the importance of spending quality time with your family. However, as the RiffTrax crew points out, the film takes things way too far, with overly perfect families engaged in some truly cringe-worthy activities. The RiffTrax commentary is at its best in this segment, as the crew adds hilarious jokes about "normalized" family behavior.

Another film that is skewered in episode 5-05 is "Clean Up Your Neighborhood". This film is like a public service announcement gone wrong. With a heavy-handed approach, the film seems to be suggesting that neighbors should literally be spying on each other in order to report on untidiness. The RiffTrax commentators can't help but poke fun at the film's ridiculous approach.

In "It Must Be The Neighbors," viewers get to watch as a couple moves into a new apartment, only to be tormented by the loudness of their neighbors. The film takes on a life of its own, with increasingly over-the-top ways that the neighbors attempt to annoy the couple. With commentary from the RiffTrax team, this short film takes on an entirely new level of over-the-top ridiculousness.

The final film on this episode is called "Hair hygiene." It is about exactly what it sounds like. Through the commentary of the RiffTrax crew, this film becomes an opportunity to poke fun at the ideas of fashionable hairstyles through the decades. With jokes about "probably made by aliens" hair products, and laughable hairdos, this is a great way to end the episode.

Overall, RiffTrax Shorts Season 5 Episode 5 is a laugh-out-loud funny compilation of some truly bizarre short films from the past. The wit and humor of the RiffTrax commentators shine through with each episode, making it a must-watch for anyone who loves to poke fun at cheesy movies and outdated productions.
