B Movies

Fri May 06, 2005 7:07 am

I'm looking for really bad B Movies. Drive in movie style like "The Creature That Ate Everything" or "Mutant Zombie Amazons From Planet Karthark" or "The Rudebega That Ravaged Albuqurque" or "The Blood Beast That Devoured Congress" or "Godzilla vs. Mothra Stewart" or "It Came From Behind The Couch"...

Cheesy stuff like that. If anyone has any suggestions or first hand experience, that'd be great.

Also old classy Film Noir stuff like "Double Idemnity" would be muchly appreciated.

Bubba Hotep. Its a relatively new movie where Elvis isn't dead, (it was just a stand in after Elvis got bored of the life) but rather now living in a retirement home. JFK is there too, he didnt die either.

Elvis ends up fighting against the undead mummies.

...

Kung Pow - Enter the Fist

It might not be quite what you want, but it is a B-movie, funny, and badly done.

Isn't Bubba Hotep absolutely HILARIOUS!!! The idea of JFK's brain inside the body of an old black man in a wheel chair cracked me up.

Attack Of The Killer Tomatoes

One of the 5 best movie titles of all time.

coming2atvnearu (I love using this name for some reason)- See if you can find the listings for the Horror Channel on English Sky TV.

http://www.sky.com/skycom/tvguide/0,,677-0,00.html should work as a link.

During the afternoon/early evening they're not so great, but you can get some real stinkers on there. L'Hog and I like to read the listings as entertainment :P
The descriptions are class too: "A mad scientist discovers an ancient pot of mud from hell, and the evil gargoyles he sculpts come to life' or some such.

Tonight they are:
10:00
The Phantom of 42nd Street
11:20
The Fear Makers
12:00
He Walked by Night
14:00
The Wasp Woman
16:00
King of the Zombies
17:25
The Fear Makers
18:00
The Gorilla
19:25
The Fear Makers
20:00
Beast from Haunted Cave
21:25
The Fear Makers
22:00
Horror in the Attic
00:00
Do You Wanna Know a Secret?
02:00
Blood Tide
03:45
Horror in the Attic

There is one on regularly called Pumpkinhead that sounds awful.

All of the below contain gore, naughty words, ridiculous special effects, puppets and/or some nudity. Bare this in mind when renting. Sadly, they are all excellent, so you may not want to include them.

------------------------------------------------------
Bad Taste - Pete "Lord of The Rings" Jackson's first ever film. Aliens land in New Zealand. Madness ensues.

Tagline: Watch out Aliens... ... here comes Derek!

------------------------------------------------------
Meet the Feebles - Pete "Lord of The Rings" Jackson's second ever film. You'll never look at the muppets in the same way.

Tagline: Hell hath no fury like a hippo with a machine gun.

------------------------------------------------------
Braindead - Pete "Lord of The Rings" Jackson's third ever film. Blokes mum gets bitten by demonic rat.

Tagline: Some things won't stay down... even after they die.

------------------------------------------------------

There must be something in the water in New Zealand.

Random fact: Travis aka CSK actually knows somebody who acted in Meet the Feebles. This is less impressive when you take into account that there are only 6 professional actors in the entire country, and 3 of those are sheep.

Peter Jacksons movies are great. Especially when it comes to the exploding sheep. I think my father is wandering down a street in Braindead...

Meet The Feebles!

I had forgotten about that one, but that movie seriously pwns. Some others that I forgot to mention were: Glen or Glenda?, Bride of The Monster, Pumpkinhead, The Exorcist 2, The Last Horror Movie Ever, The Toxic Averger, Sgt. Kabukiman, (or any Troma Studios film for that matter, loads of blood, nudity, and campy dialouge), Phantasm, Creepshow.

That's it for now :P

I'm not sure exactly how B-movie-ish Killer Klowns from Outerspace Is because I've never seen it before. My my friend is always saying how corny and ridiculous it is, so I suppose it's worth a shot. (And with a name like that, how could it not be a B-movie?)

It has clown's sucking brains out through straws. I'd say it's pretty ridiculous :roll:

Now that's fine movie making right there.

If you're into Asian B-movies, try Attack of the Gasoline Station. I believe it's Korean. :D

Attack...of the Gasoline Station? :lol: That sounds interesting to say the least. I wonder if Blockbuster has it or not.

God I used to love that movie when I was younger :P heh
