REFLECTIONS OF A ''B''- MOVIE JUNKIE: A tribute to, and homage of, the ''B''-Movie genre films of the Saturday Matinees, of primarily the '40's and '50's
Reflections Of A B Movie Junkie is a tribute to the old B Movies of the Saturday Matinees of yesteryear Actually it is more of a homage to them or at least 6 genres of those film types that were so prevalent back in primarily the 40 s and 50 s Their research and discussion however in some instances dates all the way back to the beginning of the talkies of motion picture content and can extend in the other direction into the early 70s These 6 genres include the popular B Western The Comedy Teams The Jungle Adventures Sci Fi Fantasy Horror and the Serial or Chapter Plays so popular with the week end Matinee crowds back then These film types filled up our Saturday afternoons and evenings with exciting adventure curious wonder spine tingling horror and non stop action Often filmed on a shoe string budget and in a limited time frame many of these classics came to be looked upon by many fans as being so truly bad that they were good in a bad sort of way They are thus categorized reviewed and discussed for the most part in a lovingly personal style especially when compared to the film types we are subjected to in today s market They had their place in film history and that time is long since gone But for some of us they have never been equaled which for others may indeed be a good thing
