The "Evil Dead" series is hilarous. Bruce Campbell is the man.

I know there are other B movies I love, can't think of them now though.

Breakfast Club

My three favorite B movies which are all, interestingly enough musicals. Favorite songs and tidbits are included....

1) Earth Girls Are Easy (the title song and the song " 'Cause I'm a Blonde" are hillarious). With Jim Carey and Gena Davis, you really would think this movie would have done better. The name is a LOT misleading.

2) Grease 2 ("Cool Rider", anyone?). Watching Maxwell what's his name (used to be on the Colby's) try and sing while looking very pained is a riot!

3) Girls Just Want to Have fun (Dancin' in Heaven). Stars both Sarah Jessica Parker and Helen Hunt as Catholic school girls from Chicago who've just gotta dance.

Plan 9 from outer space.. would that even qualify for "B" movie status?

There's a movie called Ed Wood about the director. Includes a little of the background from Plan 9.

Several items of interest.. but my favorite would be the simulated flying saucers -- 2 paper plates glued together and you can see the string!

I loved ALL those Brat Pack movies! (exception...Less than Zero)
Thinking of Soylent Green-A Clockwork Orange!

As far as B movies...the whole genre of monster flicks and Tokyo are pretty hard to beat especially when the lips are moving and the talking is DONE!

Are these cult status or just classic?
Orson Wells-War of the Worlds or The Day the Earth Stood Still
How about The Bad Seed-"You better give me those shoes Leroy!"

Good grief-I've seen so many movies, my head is cluttered with trivia.

I'm going to check out some "newer" stuff from all your recommendations!

I thought I was the only one too...
That movie was really strange, especially the ending

I think "The Warriors" is a good cult flick, also "Slums of Beverly Hills"

I worked at HOllywood Video for a year, so I've seen PLENTY of those movies.

Hmm let me think....

B Movie- There were a dump load of B teen movies during my tenure that star many of today's most popular actors during their heyday.

Telling You
All I Wanna Do
Coming Soon
The Suburbans

There's also many straight to video sequels like from Dusk Till Dawn that the original cast had nothing to do with, and your favorite B movie actors (Roddy Piper, Micheal Dudikoff, Richard Grieco, Ernie Hudson, now Van Damme and Steven Seagal.)

There's also your occasional gangsta/ghetto/barrio B movie:

Down For The Barrio
Border Wars
17 & Under
Thicker Than Water

And then there are some HORRIBLE, TERRIBLE "horror" movies. If any of you have seen any of these, I commend you on your bravery:

Asylum of Terror (THE WORST MOVIE I'VE EVER SEEN)
Fangoria
Trapped
Captured
The LAst Broadcast (The precursor to the Blair Witch Project, and it was actually good, better than the Blair Witch)

I'll think of some more later. What's so funny is how many people on a regular basis would rent them, come back, tel me how stupied they were, THEN RENT ANOTHER JUST LIKE IT!

I had Heathers on video and watched it until the tape broke.

How about
Faster Pussycat, Kill! Kill!
from Russ Meyers??

One of my fave cult movies is "Waiting for Guffman." Absolutely HILARIOUS! If you haven't seen it, its a must-rent!!!

I don't consider John Hughes films "cult" or "B" films, since they all made boatloads of $$$, were promoted out the yin-yang and pretty much everyone my age saw them. The Last American Virgin or Spring Fever, now that's another story.

I will watch Soylent Green or the Omega Man anytime (although I don't think Omega Man will be on TV again till the war is over) and I also get sucked into those really bad 1950's teen movies...the ones where everyone thinks Sandra Dee is a tart just because she has enormous boobs.

Night of the Living Dead

Anyone seen "Donnie Darko"? Very strange, yet interesting. After watching it I kinda stared at my tv for a minute thinking "What the hell just happened?"
