B Movie Bonanza

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.

Out of all the ones posted here this year


For me (excluding watch party announcements made/crossposted here, e.g. Big Trouble in Little China for #KungFuSat):

Of ones posted by someone else, a toss-up between:

  • Bad Black (2016) action-comedy on the mean streets of Lusaka... "SWAAAAAAAAZ!"
  • Future Cops (1993) the Street Fighter/Super Mario/time travel mashup you never knew you needed

Runner-up:

Of ones I posted myself:

Blast from the past (from me going over the earliest B Movie Bonanza posts):


I still have so many I need to catch up on, though. I've probably seen only 3%! (Also I only joined the threadiverse around April this year.)

Basket case

Encounters of the spooky kind

Absolute powerhouses of cinema for low budget but high return on fun.
I love those movies where they just commit to their world

I love Encounters , adding Basket Case to my wishlist

Ok so while I can't say that the sequels are as tightly written as the first. If you enjoy the monster and think Freaked (1993) wasnt insane enough I do think they aren't a bad time.

I watched every Evil Bong movie in October. It was enjoyable but man were some stinkers part way through the run. I will forever think of those terrible songs they slapped across the series "God Smokes weed" being at the top. Favorite part is they must of hit up the local strip club every time shooting started for the naked Girls, they are different every time.

I'll chalk up Evil Bong 666 as my favorite.

  • Still haven't seen Laserblast, it was on #Monsterdon just before I started joining watch parties. Added to my wishlist.
  • Still convinced that the guy on the Laserblast poster is Richard Lynch, I don't care what IMDb or Wikipedia says!

Poster for the film 'Laserblast'

Laserblast is bad, real bad, but it's also lots of fun. In the US it's on Tubi and Fawesome.

Still convinced that the guy on the Laserblast poster is Richard Lynch

The running joke on monsterdon was that he's Meth Mark Hammill.

For me it's a tie between Future Kick and C.H.U.D.

As for the movies I posted myself: it's a three-way tie (😆) between Future Cops, Attack of the 60 Foot Centerfold(s) and La Nave de los Monstruos (aka Ship of the Monsters.)

Cool, added the unseen ones to my wishlist

And many thanks for the year of great B movie posts! 👏 👏 👏

Big thanks to you too. You rock! 🙌
