Aaron Does The "B" Movie

[weemadando]

I'll plug a TV series. It might be an unpopular move, but it upholds a lot of B-movie traditions

Strike Back - but season 2 onwards.

It's a modern military thriller, but leans heavily towards the ridiculousness of the 80s action movie - silly action and violence and wisecracking while throwing in a very heavy amount of TnA. But hey, that's Cinemax for you.

English version good, American version no doubt horrible

The English version (season 1) was a very different show. Fairly serious.

The US version (season 2 on) is just nuts.

Fuck - 3000 Miles To Graceland.

This should be on your list.

For me, 3000 Miles to Graceland was a huge missed opportunity.

Those first ten minutes should have been the story.

But then we'd never have met the Marshals. Or Ice T.

On her plus side, wouldn't have met annoying kid.

Watch Tucker & Dale vs. Evil. It's about hicks being mistaken as killers. It's the only movie that actually makes hicks charming and likable.

Thanks for the recommendation, I just watched it & it was fun (and also exposed a lot of the class politics behind the hillbilly-slasher type of film).
