Rifftrax Takes on Batman: Target Robin

Rifftrax have announced the sixth installment in their series of riffs on the '40s Batman theatrical serials, this one taking aim at Target Robin. As ever, there's no Batmobile, and the title of the story has basically nothing to do with the actual plot, which continues the ongoing story of both Batman and Robin being targeted by gangsters. You can check out a trailer and official description below.

This sixth installment in the thrilling serial takes an unexpected turn when the Wizard and his gang, who previously had been targeting Batman and Robin, begin to Target Robin! Oh, and also still Batman. The bad guys are still targeting both of them, as they have from the beginning. These titles are meaningless. But the action continues! Just as our heroes continue to keep their costumes in a file cabinet in Bruce Wayne's unfinished basement! And the World's Greatest Detective continues to fall for traps set by a blundering crew of mobsters, who are really doing a great job keeping it together in the absence of their good friend Gabe, by the way. Will Batman and his middle-aged charge escape a chamber filling with deadly CO2 gas, which despite what you may have heard in science class is apparently completely visible? Tune in with Mike, Kevin, and Bill! Haven't seen any of these hilarious old Batman shorts? Start with the very first episode, Batman Takes Over! Old shorts not your style? You're in luck! We've also riffed the recent Christian Bale incarnation of the Dark Knight Detective - check out our MP3 commentary for The Dark Knight!
