Your favourite 'B' movie
 
We all have one, whether we like to admit it or not. You know the one - a mediocre film, whether it's due to bad acting, cheesy lines, non-existent/poorly structured plot, etc but you still love it. In fact, you could watch it over and over again simply because it's entertaining. And that it's cheesy. And that the acting is bad. And so on.

I'll tell you mine:

Maximum Overdrive: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0091499/

It's a Stephen King film based on one of his short stories, called 'Trucks'.

Quote:

For 8 days in 1986, the earth passed through the tail of a mysterious Rea-M rogue comet. During that time, machines on earth suddenly come to life and terrorize their human creators. A small group of people in a truck stop, surrounded by "alive" semi-trailers, set out to stop the machines before the machines stop them.
It also includes my favourite Stephen King cameo:

I really don't know very many B movies I guess.

I watched a lot of Mystery Science Theater, there were two movies that were hilariously awesome besides the commentary.

This Island Earth
Mitchell (this movie was great, it was a horribly made action movie, but still a gem)

does The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension count as a 'B' movie

might be more like an 'E' or so

Gaborlick 02-05-2013 08:23 AM

oh, I just thought of Leonard Part 6. Does that count? lol

That's a great movie!

One that springs to mind...actually two...

Vincent Price in House of Wax (1953) - there are so many other I love w/Price but this one is it for me.

Nosferatu (1922) - if a 1922 silent movie can creep me out, it deserves to top my list. Funny, you can view the actual full film on YouTube now.

LOL! I dont watch a lot of B movies but how could you not watch this. The movie itself wasnt very good, but a good laugh at the very least.

Do movies produced by The Asylum fall under the B movie category?

If so, my vote goes to Mega Shark vs Giant Octopus.

I've yet to watch Mega Shark vs Crocosaurus which stars Urkel, but I'm hoping it's just as good/bad as it's predecessor.

Not sure if it qualifies but Logan's Run immediately comes to mind.
