B-movies.
Who doesn’t love B-movies? With their D-list actors delivering solid B characters, and a cheese factor that would make any wine lover drool…. Who cares if the story line is unrealistic and downright ridiculous? I for one don’t; I enjoy the hell out of it!

George A. Romero is one of my favorite directors.
He has a fetish for zombies much like I do, and that usually translates to a good film.
Can the same be said for Diary of the Dead?

Back in 1994 a couple of no names decided to hook up with an equally no name low budget writer (Kim Henkel) who decided to make his directorial debut with yet another installment in the Chainsaw series. I might also add that this debut was his ONLY directorial effort.
Never heard of him? Neither have I. But I have heard of the two no name actors in this installment: Matthew McConaughey and Renee Zellweger. Talk about a weird combination!

Here we have college kids trying to fit in and trying to get laid, picking on nerdy kids, and providing the gratuitous boob shots that have become a staple of B-movie worthiness.
The acting was laughable, the cast was mostly no name actors, the script was so obviously memorized….
This was turning out to be a GREAT movie!
Unless you’ve been living under a rock, I’m willing to bet you’ve heard the name “Troma” - a name that is synonymous with B-film. Some might even dare to say Troma Entertainment is the king of B. Would they be right? Well - as my mother likes to say, “that’s why they have chocolate AND vanilla [...]

Best Movie Line: “I’m not putting that hack drug up my nose - it’s so 80’s!”
Introduction
There are certain movies that I can watch repeatedly, recite almost verbatim, and still I [...]
Courtney Cox & David Arquette’s company “Coquette Productions” is no stranger to film. With the success of the TV show Dirt on FX Where Cox plays a very crass and open editor-in-chief of a sleazy tabloid, and the much less successful Talk Show Diaries - not to mention the combined filmography of both - I [...]
Paris Hilton: Millionaire Model and really bad actress? Or is she good??
Let’s face it. Paris is Hot. Say what you want to about her - that she is a spoiled rich kid who has the world by the ass; a dumb blonde; a waste of space; untapped genius….. ok that might be a bit of [...]
Remember those old Godzilla movies from the 60’s & 70’s? The ones where the monsters were constructed in such an amateur, plastic-y, stunted manner; and the special effects looked like something out of a Batman comic? I loved those movies. Still love them with their antiquated graphics and their awful actors…… its just that now they are tied to a much higher price tag. $25 mil I think on this one.
Any of you out there have what I call your “go to” movies? You know, movies that you have seen 100 times , can recite the lines word for word, but still watch over and over when nothing else in on? From a comedy standpoint, I love Adam Sandler. His movies are a riot. As well, [...]
