A place for lovers of B movies to come together and talk about them.

Rules:

  1. Be most excellent to one another. (Don't be a jerk)
  2. Try not to repost movies that have already been posted. (If it has been over 12 months feel free to repost)
  3. If posting links for people to watch the movies let them be legal ones. (Free is best but not when it's shady, you dig?)
  4. Have fun and enjoy all the awesomeness that B movies can bring you.

I was really hype for this when I discovered it a few years ago. It was fine, but to me it felt like it was trying way too hard to be campy. And that sorta soured it for me.

Imo camp is WAY more fun when it doesn't feel artificial.

That's the fine line of quality B movies. I don't want some "holds up spork lol XD this movie is so random" B movie. I want "we had a shoestring budget to make this movie and spent about half of it on a bag of coke, this is the best we could do."
