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 suspect that it's not an accident that it's so memorable.

Throughout the movie, there's all of this plot stuff going on. That's of course to be expected, since that's what movies do.

But at the same time, there's little bits and pieces of the theme song coming together in the background.

Then the story ends dramatically, and with a touching and heart-warming coda, and what's the Lectroid's reaction? "So what? Big deal."

Then the closing theme plays. And that's the real culmination of the movie.
