Alright,
I'll admit it: I am a B-Movie fanatic.
Why
do I love ‘em?
Is
it the cheap sets? The bad acting,
costumes and props? The continuity errors,
or Swiss Cheese plots with the holes
big enough that you
can drive a semi-truck
through
them?
Who knows.
Probably all of the above.
But
the
ones I truly enjoy are where the creators
-- despite budget
limitations,
or general lack of any discernable talent,
manage to turn out a decent
-- if not-quite-spectacular film.
As
long as its earnest with its intentions,
if not in
the execution, then that’s good enough
for me.
However,
let it be known that even I have my
limits. Don’t get me wrong. I love the
ineptitude,
and the more idiotic the better. It can be
terrible, hilarious -- or
even inspiring,
but the one thing it can’t be is BORING!
I
don’t care how gawd-stinking awful the
film is, if some form of genuine
entertainment can be wrung from it, then I
say by all means pop it in, adjust the
tracking and turn out the lights (where
applicable) and let’s
all wallow in the badness together.
