If something is carefully crafted to be tongue in cheek, kitsch, ironic, retro whatever....can it really be "terrible but great"

Discourse.

I don't know, but Kung Fury is brilliant. Triceracop should have his own spin off. The Penitentiary films, basically blaxploitation Rocky are definitely in so bad it's good territory. Not sure if they are classed as B movies though. Slugs and Ankle Biters are both kinda amusing.

Any of the Troma films will fit the bill.

Low budget film about a girl turning into a werewolf during her time of the month - pretty much defines b movie doesn't it.

Inbred was filmed in Thirsk where i live. There was outrage when it was announced,

Death Proof I like.

Gladiator Cop is my favourite B movie. utter rubbish with pointless scenes but an excellent post pub watch

Man Bites Dog is hilarious, assuming you like your humour very very dark.

Wasn't there a sequel to Bad Taste which was slightly more mainstream?

Pig face has it all of the trim and films would fit the bit. Chopper Chicks in Zombie Town and Terror Firma are two of my favourites. Most of them are on the Troma YouTube channel too.

I saw a decent one a couple of years ago with zombies and strippers, but I can't remember what it was called.

War of the Worlds - the original - with Ronald Reagan NOT the Z movie with Tom Cruise in it!

Thread should have ended with Tremors.

Greatest B movie ever made.

Black Dynamite. Low-budget but well done & genuinely hilarious. Great Kung-fu action too!

Basket Case.

B movie horror at its finest, and not for the faint-hearted !

I'm not sure it counts as a B movie but Galaxy Quest is excellent.

Was Hard Boiled a B Movie?

At the time it was a massive movie (by Hong Kong standards) with it's two biggest stars and a superstar director. So I would say no. But you're right, awesome film.

Dark Star

There's nothing terrible about Dark Star. It's brilliant.

Really random British film where i've yet to meet anyone else that's ever seen it:

Christie Malry's own double entry, just sounds wrong until you realise it's basis is in accounting, where he uses the principles of the double-entry system to settle his owns scores with various people in increasingly violent ways, starred a young Nick Moran, always remember it being surprisingly good

I'm not sure if it fits with B movie due to some of the cast, but Earth Girls are Easy is IMO just an absolute classic of what i consider to fit in with what he wants... funny.
