Cheesiest "B" movie of all time?
Edited on Tue Jan-08-08 11:19 PM by benEzra
I think I might have found a leading contender...



http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Santa_Claus_Conquers_the_Martians

Other possibilities...

1. Pia Zadora was in that!
I have no idea what else she ever did of merit...

2. I've seen 'Santa Claus Conquers the Martians' three times
It's more like a D-minus movie.

Seriously — it's horribly done. It'd make Ed Wood roll his eyes.

The best thing that can be said about it is it was Pia Zadora's debut film. She was 10.

That's how bad it is.

18. Plan 9 is so bad there's no letter in the alphabet to classify it.
Ed Wood was strictly a Z class filmmaker.

10. I have to go with
Robot Monster. How can you deny the title to a guy wearing a bigfoot suit with a diving helmet?

20. There Should Have Been Only One
Here's a tip: Any film with Michael Ironside in it is crap.

Total Recall
Red Dawn
Highlander II
etc...

14. You have to see the Mystery Science Theater 3000 take on these
You'll die laughing!

MST3k did a couple of hundred of these types of movies!

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mystery_Science_Theatre_3000


"Attack of the Eye Creatures", "Terror from the Year 5000", "Prince of Space"... NetFlix has them!

Oh, and check your PM...
