I am curious if anyone in here are fans of "B-Movies?" If so, which ones?

The Killer Shrews is one of my favorites. Along with The Giant Gila Monster (which was in reality, a Mexican beaded lizard)

Low-budget movies that you watch and kinda laugh at. Usually the film makers had good intentions, but their attempt fell flat.
I hate wiki, here try here anyway.

Scenes from Plan 9 from Outer Space, a classic B-movie

Do Saved and Garden State count? I love those movies. I also love any Lucille Ball movie by default, and she was in a bunch of B- movies.

Also, I know that Driving Lessons has to be a B-movie . . . I loved that film.

oh my god a thread i can live in..

i sarah, love low budget films. it all started with elvira and her old films. (the screaming skull, attack of the puppet people, etc. then i discovered evil dead and ED2, then i became obscessed with bruce campbell and it flowered into waxwork and Wax2, then all the ed wood films...

and then jesus smiled upon the earth and someone came up with mystery science theatre, which had the incredibly mixed up people who died to become mixed up zombies and santa claus conquers the martians. and OMG i almost forgot killer klowns.

my brother, the bestest kid ever, bought me the top 50 worst movies ever made.

sigh

<3 B movies<3

it should be a staple in every household.

the 2nd one i think was the best of the thrillogy because it had the humor that flows naturally from bruce and sam and in addition to it the ridiculous amount of blood.

now ima have to watch it again Smile

Some of the scences of Faces of Death were pretty intersting, i'll keep a eye out for the triology of terror.
