    Feast sloppy seconds - cracked me the hell up!
  • Troma puts out some classic, ultra low budget fun. It doesn't appeal to everybody though.

    As for B movies, I've been watching some of the old Vincent Price movies lately. Masque of the Red Death, The Raven, Theater of Blood, etc. All very entertaining if you like VIncent Price and his hamminess. He could read the ingredients off of a cereal box and make it entertaining.

  • I stumbled across this movie on the SyFy channel once called "Dread." It has Jackson Rathbone in it, whom some of you may recognize from Twilight fame... anyhow, I didn't expect it to be any good because it seems like I'm never impressed with much of what SyFy does these days, but low and behold, it actually really held its own! A tight script and a particularly perverse and sadistic antagonist really make this movie a fantastically unpleasant experience :) The final scene of the movie, right before it goes to credits... it will make your stomach drop.

    Just watching that trailer brings up chilling memories of watching the movie

    One of my favorite made for TV horror movies is the original Don't Be Afraid Of The Dark. I also found an early John Carpenter movie at my local used DVD place called Someone's Watching Me. I'm not sure if it was a made for TV movie, but it had that vibe. Very suspenseful. Some of my favorite B movies are Piranha (original), Night of the Comet and Night of the Creeps!
