some beauties here...cheers
the blob
Sex lives of the potato men - hilarious but shit
He'll comes to frog town, staring (and that term is used lightly) rowdy roddy piper!
Dark Star - it's one of my favourite films!
Toxic Avenger - pure class ,loved it i might look on line and buy right now ha ha
+1 tremors (and the sequels)
Biggles adventures in time has a very highlander-y 80s feel to it
Highlander (I)
Dark Star (damn, beaten to it..)
No way Wicker Man is a B movie TBH. When it came out it was shown with Don't Look Now which would have been a freaky evening out.. I saw it with The Privilege - film adaptation of a G M Brown story..
Dog soldiers
Someone else got there first! Ah well...
Easily the most terrible film I've seen in yonks (only saw it for the first time a few months ago). It's so crap that it's actually quite brilliant! Features a number of "before they were famous" actors too...
"The Business" is a rarity in that it's got Danny Dyer in, but it's actually quite good. Hysterical stereotypes abound in the film full of a load of Essex Boys on the Costa Del Crime in the 80's, but it's pretty funny in a tragic way.
So too "Severance" on the Danny Dyer front... Another film that's hilarious in spite of him rather than because of him.
Bad Taste and They Live my top picks, but I'll go with Brain Damage and the Phantasm trilogy.
Ski School
Can't believe no one has said
BIG TROUBLE IN LITLLE CHINA yet...
Also Darkman is excellent.
Human traffic, the best danny dyer film by far.
Nice one brother.

Pulp Fiction.
Essentially a B movie, but with an A list cast.
POSTED 5 HOURS AGO #
How can you say that about what many consider one of the best films ever made ?
What does "essentially a B movie " actually mean ?
The Gods must be crazy. Daft South African comedy.
Empire of the Ants, starring Joan Collins
Iron Sky.
Cheech and Chong
Nice dreams and still smokin.
Not quite b movies but ,
Twin town
Final cut
and nil by mouth,
Teeth
It's terrible!
Troll hunter isn't bad but great, it's just bad.
How about The Thing from 1982. B film for sure but great.
Kick boxer and bloodsport, B movies surely.
Penitentiary one, two and three. Amazingly bad blaxploitation, rocky, prison, funk with Mr T as some kind of Genie in the second one.
Incense for the Damned - utterly random psychedelic orgy scene.
Courage starring Dick Jones from Robocop. It's about a group of runners that run afoul of a bunch of paramilitary nuts. The most intense scene is when Dick Jones gets a cramp whilst hiding. Sort of like the original The Hills Have Eyes, but missing the kick ass hillbilly killing Golden Retriever 🙂
The party, with peter sellers.
Party party with perry fenwick.
Gregory's girl.
Iron sky, I mean space nazis? Whats not to love!
Sharknado!!! 🙂
Ginger Snaps
the best bad movie without doubt is
EVIL ROY SLADE with John Astin, absolutely hilarious cowboy film
and maybe KINGPIN with Woody Harrelson a close second
Some nice ones on here!
My two pennorth;
Surf Nazis must Die, Chopper Chicks in Zombie Town pretty much any of the Troma films.
Some good 60s Hells Angels films too; Rough Boys, Hells Angels 69 etc.
El Topo, Holy Mountain if you fancy something a bit more psychedelic
Class of nuke 'em high is always another favourite of mine. You can't beat a bit of low budget Troma!
cannibal holocaust
The Punisher (the 80s version with Dolph Lundren) - cheap but surprisingly good... and possibly available to watch on youtube...
In fact, youtube is a goldmine of full length crappy films.
Zombie Flesh Eaters was another awful one.....I remember being disturbed by a scene with a zombie having an underwater fistfight with an obviously drugged shark.
A friend of mine also introduced me to Archive.org which has loads of out-of-copyright films. Carnival of Souls being a very weird one!
A Boy and His Dog
Anything with shark in the title - Sharknado, Sharktopus, Dinoshark, Megashark vrs whatever it wants, the list is almost endless! Stand outs are Swampshark with Kirsty Swanson and 2 headed shark attack with Hulk Hogans daughter!
Troll Hunter is never a B movie, and its flippin brilliant.
Attack of the killer tomatoes
sharknado and the sharknado 2. both currently plying on one of the satellite channels. brilliant films best viewed with a bottle or two of beer.
I'm going with "Nightbreed" any film where you use David Cronenburg as an actor and Clive Barker as a producer has to be a spectacularly compelling omnishambles
Battle beyond the stars.
Creepshow.
I think "They Live" has already been mentioned, but it gets a huge +1 from me!
How about "Big Trouble In Little China". Brilliant brilliant stuff!

In no way could Dark Star be considered "awfully bad". It's a classic.
Bay Town Outlaws!!!
I really, [i]really[/i] cannot believe we got this far and no one has mentioned Machete!
