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.

I worry it can't possibly live up to the cover art.

It absolutely does. It's easily an S-tier bad movie. What makes it special to me is that it's very earnest and even wholesome throughout. It has plenty of terrible acting and questionable choices, but it was made by someone who really believed in it and wanted to genuinely spread a positive message. It's worth your time.

You were so right. I can't believe it's real.

Dude it's so fucking good. This is one of the few movies on this sub I've seen and can vouch for. Karate rock band fighting motorcycle ninjas?? Incredible.

It was incredible. It might be the most '80s thing that exists. It was stunning.

It's so true. It makes me so happy you watched it.
