@Sergio @klu9 the Higher Luke Theory, if you will.

@FiniteBanjo @verdantbanana I don’t recognize it, but Reddit r/tipofmytongue would figure it out.

@LaurenceWolse I’ve seen this one, I appreciate that it’s one of those films where the title contains everything you need to know about it.

@Sergio Big fan of creature flicks that are just the name of the creature.

@Sergio @janonymous The best bad films are like clown shoes. Clown shoes are funny because of information asymmetry: as an audience member, you can clearly see that the clown is wearing clown shoes, but it’s always surprising to the clown when they trip over them.

Similarly, some of the best bad films are the ones where the production team is convinced they’re making the next blockbuster, but you know they actually made Alien Private Eye.

@smeg @Sergio He was excellent as the captain in The Poseidon Adventure.

I don’t think he’d have nearly been as good a comedic actor without the serious background, since so much of the comedy is based on subversion of drama tropes.

@Sergio This one is a hoot.

Beware that it has a couple incidences of anti-gay slurs.

@Sergio This film has the most unexpected nude wrestling scene.

@aeronmelon @LaurenceWolse Hell of a poster, what’s the main character’s name, Luke Cokebender?

@Preacher An absolute classic. I actually think it’s pretty good, in its own weird way.

@IMongoose @Kolanaki Troma distributed Cannibal: The Musical, but wasn’t involved in production.

Troma movies are not actually good, on purpose.

@LaurenceWolse Oh my god what a poster!

@pdavis @LaurenceWolse toots 4 lyfe

@Anorack One of the greatest B movies ever. If you haven’t watched this one, drop everything and get on it.

@LaurenceWolse The soundtrack around 5:28 sounded really familiar, and I was tearing my hair out trying to figure out where I’d heard it before. Finally realized that it’s from Deep Throat. On the soundtrack album, it’s called “Pussy Cola,” though I think a lot of those titles were made up just to have name for the tracks.

@suetanvil @bmoviebonanza Oh no

No idea if images come through from Mastodon, let’s find out!

@Mr_Wobble @LaurenceWolse That’s silly, movies have their own props.

@LowtierComputer Still works for me.
