Alright, well im huge on B-Movies and would like to know if anyone else is. if you dont know what a B-Movie is then ill explain it to you: A B-Movie is a low-budget movie that contains large amounts of cardboard and a ridiculous Plot. Mostly come in Sci-Fi editions. Bad Acting, Horrible Editing, Non-Scary monsters, and some nudity are also Symptoms. Although most people frown upon these movies, a couple of my friends and I indulge ourselves in them while drinking or not. The best parts of the movies is when the Bad Guy gets away from a good people without fighting, "Great" one-liners, Bad Acting, Monster Detail, the gratuitous Breast shot, and many other horrible turns of events. i highly recommend going to your local video rental and checking out the movie with the worst title and see how much fun you can have with it by making fun of the movie and anything you wish to add to make it fun. Ive Started making a List of Things to help you Spot B-Movies (if you wish to add to my list im always up for suggestions) and their not in any order, yet. so here it tis: How To Spot a B- Movie Hot Blonde Chic Same Actor/Actress as in other B-Movies, you've happen to seen Same Producer as other B-Movies Crappy Name (e.g. SS Doomtrooper, Boa vs. Python) CGI monster on front cover SCI-FI Horrible Plot, that makes no sense Straight to TV SCI-FI SCI-FI Original Movie From the Looks of the cover, could doube as a Prono Characters Last names show up in more then one B-Movie Main Actor/Actress was a Waiter/Waitress in a Blockbuster The Creature/Monster is on the Cover The Movie was not made in the US Cardboard is highly used in the Production of the Movie so please feel free to add to my list of "How To Spot a B-Movie"
I don't believe B-movies have to be sci-fi. My favorites are those horribly cheesy knock-offs that always come out with almost the exact same plot or characters as whatever the most popular movie of the day is. Example: Leprechaun Also of note is that some B-movies aren't that bad. Maybe their production budget is too low for great FX but the acting or plot can be decent. Some B-movie directors or actors go on to do great things. Evil Dead is an example since Bruce Campbell has made a successful career out of being a bad actor, as well as Sam Raimi going on to direct and produce lots of main stream stuff. Anyway, yes. I am also a huge B-movie fan. MST3K was the best show on television.
I use to have 200 (no kidding) VHS tape with B movies and worse (aka C(rap) movies. I bought them all that once from a movie rental store for a whooping 20 euros. You know what is worse then a b movies? B prono, it's freaking hilarious. I gave them all away, and made a student very happy with them. I went to a student party a year later and they playing those movies. So it was worth the 20 euro.
Ive started my collection a couple of months back, but since i go to school in a small town of about 2k people im not able to hit up the bigger stores to get more B-Movies. if your in the USA then a good place to hit up is a place called Hastings, its more or less a entertainment store but they have lots of used B-Movies for 10 USD. I plan on going today, since im at home and near one, and getting a few more. so far my collection consists of: Rodentz Boa Vs. Python Rottwieler 13th child Man's Bestfriend although its not much, im still looking forward to these, which ill be picking up today: Sssssssss Dog Soldiers Pumpkinhead (i dont know which one yet) i beleive that wll be it. also my favorite actor which just happens to be in some of my favorite B-Movies is: Kirk B.R. Woller
The Ninja Series: specifically Ninja Dominator. Best £1.25 I ever spent (mate and I went 50/50). I haven't laughed so hard in ages.
Truthfully... dang i was really looking forward to watching it. the plot is horrible from what i read. but one thing that made me think it was a B-Movie, was that there are two teams from the military doing a war game. well when one team ends up at the other teams base, and find them murdered they suddenly have live rounds... seriously unless your trying to literally kill the other team you shouldnt have live rounds.
Nah it's a bit more complicated than that. It's a great film though I think, you may well genuinely enjoy it. Sam
well after that let down.... Ive also been looking into buying the Movie Infra-Man.... read a review on a B Movie site and well it seems that it could live up to something...
LOL leprechaun, my siblings and I started to watch that with my dad when we were little, and he turned it off for 2 reasons, the highest and most notalbe reason - Horrible, the second was cause of the cussing.
Alright after watching "Dog Soldiers", i dont know whether to claim it a B movie, although many times does it have its parts, such as the other team has live rounds, the Dogs look horrible up close, and the guy with the intestines....and of course more i cant remember at the moment. Ill be watching Sssssss later tonight or tomorrow.
anything taking the piss out of a genre or multiple genres while happily oblivious to the fact that it is now also in a genre and should probably be taking the piss out of its self... YES, I'm looking at you scary movie and all the other crap you spawned!
Blood Gnome Review GHAHAHA...Alright well i just got done watching this great flick called Blood Gnome. Between the horrendous Camera shots and the retard that cant tell that his camera was open in his car in broad daylight, all i have to say is this: Get alot of Beer and Friends and sit down for this whorer flick, yes i said whorer, this is the only movie i think that ive seen thats not a porno that has too much boobage in. Sorry but you guys must see this one for yourselves. But Please go and get this, if you would like me to elaborate on this film i can, but at this time its a little late and will prolly go into detail later this week about it.
My absoluty favorite must be: Killer Klowns from Outer Space I almost pissed myself watching it. A must see IMHO
ive heard of Killer Klowns. another one i would rather not mention to say ive watched is "Santa's Slay", they kill their two highest paid actors in 5 minutes of the opening scene, how does that spell B for you. also has the Reknown WWF Wrester: Bill Goldberg (also an Ex Pro Football Player USA).
