Roller Gator is a low-budget film, released on home video in 1996. Written and directed by Donald G. Jackson, the story is about a baby gator note He's actually 12 years old!, who can talk, trying to flee a greedy carnival owner (Joe Estevez). The gator meets up with a young woman named P.J. (Sandra Shuker) who agrees to help him reunite with his owner (Conrad Brooks) while being stalked by the Dark Ninja hired by the carnival owner.The film was almost unknown until it was featured by the crew of RiffTrax. Watch as they struggle to get through this flick. | |

Spiking the Camera | |
| Roller Gator / int_108ad6d8 | comment |
Spiking the Camera: PJ's actress Sandra Shuker does this a few times in the opening shots when she's wandering around the carnival, which makes no sense. It's especially odd, as in a couple shots she's clearly the one holding the camera! | |

Noodle Incident | |
| Roller Gator / int_3c0a4666 | comment |
Noodle Incident: Mr. Dennis and his nephew briefly talk of an incident where they had to hose down some clowns who were stealing taffy. On the Rifftrax commentary they lament that such a scene wasn't featured in the film. | |

Do Not Call Me "Paul" | |
| Roller Gator / int_50cc01e1 | comment |
Do Not Call Me "Paul": Reggie keeps calling his uncle "Uncle Chichi", although Chico Dennis insists "Mr. Dennis" (not even "Uncle Chico"). Also, the talking gator hates being called "Baby Gator". | |

Instant Costume Change | |
| Roller Gator / int_623a4ab4 | comment |
Instant Costume Change: The Dark Ninja pretends to be one of PJ's friends and is dressed in regular clothes. The second she snatches the backpack from Slingshot (thinking the gator is inside), she's back in her ninja garb. | |

Sanity Slippage | |
| Roller Gator / int_62434fe2 | comment |
Sanity Slippage: Mr. Dennis progressively becomes more unhinged, especially upon learning one of his minions is now helping P.J. and the gator. By the end of the film in the Rifftrax version, Mike, Bill and Kevin are Laughing Mad and firing automatic weapons until the credits are over. | |

Ms. Fanservice | |
| Roller Gator / int_b032e4ed | comment |
Ms. Fanservice: PJ spends her whole first meeting with the gator in just her bikini. During the 2nd half of the film, she skates in a sports bra and jean shorts. | |

Mascot with Attitude | |
| Roller Gator / int_bc53f09e | comment |
Mascot with Attitude: The worst example of this trope. The Gator's "attitude" is nothing but juvenile insults, cheap jabs and aggravatingly bad attempts at rapping. | |

| Roller Gator / int_d99a228f | comment |
Unusually Uninteresting Sight: When P.J. first meets the talking gator, the first thing she finds that's strange about him is that he's purple. As opposed to... talking gator. | |

Comically Missing the Point: Dennis' nephew Reggie tries to ask P.J. out. Given he's working for the main villain he should know the answer to that. | |
