"Great" B-movies.

[bestseller92]

Hey, a movie doesn't have to be expensive or well produced to be great, now, does it?

Does a movie even have to be good to be great??

That might make an interesting discussion.

Which is sorta why I brought it up.

Just off the top of my head, one of my "most favoritest" "B" movies would have to be "Legend of Boggy Creek".

Anyone else like this "Foulke monster" movie from the early 70s? What are some of your own favorite "B" movies?

I used to love the Billy Jack movies. The Born Losers, Billy Jack, The Trial of Billy Jack, Billy Jack Goes to Washington.

When I was five or six, my brother took me to the drive in to see a flick called "When Women Had Tails".

It might be one of my favorite B movies, except I don't remember anything about it except the title .

I thought they still did? Poor me all this time I have spent looking at

something that does not exist.

Captain Logan: [to Ray and Danny] Hey! That jumper yesterday? Just got a flash from the coroner on the cause of death!
Danny Costanzo: Oooh, let me guess. Deceleration trauma.
Ray Hughes: Cement poisoning.
Captain Logan: He drowned.
Danny Costanzo: Oh, poor guy couldn't swim or fly, huh?

Maximum Overdrive

One of my all time favorites.

Hollywood Knights

Another great one.

Tremors, one of my favorites. Whenever I watch I know all the dialogue, but when it's unedited I get confused as to what I'm watching.

Rocky Horror Picture Show..

Rocky Horror Picture Show..

Yep!

And "The Big Lebowski"....

[z-man]

althought the actors/actresses are known now, they were all unknowns when this fantastic cheeseball was made:

[sonofabeach]

Midnight Madness

I remember that from when I was a kid and every now and then when we still say
"faga beefe" when someone pulls a bonehead move.


I'm not sure if it's a B-movie but I like
Harley Davidson and the Marlboro Man
They Call Me Bruce
Superfuzz

I'm shocked that no one has mentioned Amazon Women on the Moon......perhaps the best B movie of all time.

Here's a few clips from the film featuring Arsenio Hall and Michelle Pfeiffer (there's many other stars who make cameos in the movie)

[Glorfindel7]

I love Amazon Women on the Moon (but in all fairness I cannot call it a B-Movie because it's really a satire of B movies

My favorite B Movie? (that's tough... but I'll go with Killer Klowns from Outer Space....)
(BTW anyone ever heard of the cult of UHF?....http://www.cultofUHF.wordpress.com )

I used to love the Billy Jack movies. The Born Losers, Billy Jack, The Trial of Billy Jack, Billy Jack Goes to Washington.

I wandered across The Born Losers on late-night local cable, and could not turn away!!

It was SO, SOOOO bad...

I had to watch the entire mess just to be able to laugh at myself for having done so!

[Lightning Bolt]

althought the actors/actresses are known now, they were all unknowns when this fantastic cheeseball was made:

you're right, there...Jim Carrey and Damon Wayans were still pretty much unknowns.
Jeff Goldblum had done The Big Chill, but here.... he was pretty much just collecting a paycheck...or he had lost a bet!

...and Geena Davis was just plain HOT!!
she was about to break out with an Oscar-winning turn for The Accidental Tourist

althought the actors/actresses are known now, they were all unknowns when this fantastic cheeseball was made:

A really bad/good one!!!

I used to love the Billy Jack movies. The Born Losers, Billy Jack, The Trial of Billy Jack, Billy Jack Goes to Washington.

OMG... I cannot even tell you how many times I watched those movies!

[Lightning Bolt]

Hollywood Knights

A Robert Wuhl classic!... blue moon!!

...and now I remember why I always thought Fran Drescher was hot!
