| | | | (...) Come on man!! "They Live" is probably my favorite "B" movie of all time. It has one of the best fist fights I've seen in a movie, All to get a guy to ware a pair of sunglasses of all things!! I love the movie and crack up every time I see it. (...)

| | | | (...) If by "best" you mean comically protracted, I wholeheartedly agree! While undeniably a good B-movie, one of the things I like most about it is... . . . . . . spoiler space . . . . . . . the fact that the hero dies. That's fairly rare in modern (...)

| | | | | (...) Yah that's what I mean. There have to be 4 or 5 points during the fight that you figure thats it, it's over, and they go about kicking the &%$# out of each other for another round. That is one awsome, and incredibly funny at times fight. If it (...) (24 years ago, 15-Mar-01, to lugnet.off-topic.fun)

And on top of that, I know that it's a good movie to sit around and watch and make fun of (there are two types of good movies in my mind- ones you can enjoy (...)

Well, you liked "Fight Club," for pity's sake, so I don't know if your definition of "really bad" matches mine! 8^) "In the Mouth of Madness" was absolutely god-awful from start to finish, and "Village of the Damned" was just about the same, (...)
