Anyone here into old B flicks?

[johnnie]

You might have gotten these ads in email, and I usually don't pay any attention, but I ordered the horror mega pack. It was something like $29.99. It has 50 movies on it. I also saw an interview with Chris Stein from Blondie who said he bought these and loved them. So I got them and the movies are great. A lot of them are pretty bad, but that's what makes them good.
A few weeks ago I got the Sci-Fi ones, and am now watching those. So it costs me about 60 bucks for 100 old B movies that are great to watch.
Anyone else in to this stuff? I don't work for the company or anything, I just think it is a good deal and it's cool to sit around and watch them.

2. Yuppers -

I'm a fan of those old Hercules flicks -the ones with Steve Reeves were the best, but, as you say, some of the others are so bad they're good. And talk about weird plots, like in "Hercules against the Sons of the Sun", where Herc ends up in Ancient Peru, fighting a human sacrifice cult. Don't even ask - how a guy from Ancient Greece finds himself in Pre-Columbian America, is any ones guess.

5. I haven't watched the Hercules ones yet

There are so many to watch, so I have been just trying to find the "worst" ones. I will check out the Hercules flix soon. :)

Dr. San Guinary.

8. Check out "2,000 Maniacs" and "Blood Feast"

They are great, campy horror flicks directed by Herschell Gordon Lewis.

9. EEGAH!!!!!

OOOOOHHHHH... ..that is one terrible movie.

MST3000 gave it the treatment it richly deserved.

10. I watched EEGAH last weekend

I was laughing my ass off. That dude singing and playing guitar...LOL. It is one of my favorites from all of these.

11. What a bargain

Yeah I love b movies. I guess the modern day equivalent would be the direct to video (dvd) movies.

Cheers!
