A place for lovers of B movies to come together and talk about them.

Rules:

  1. Be most excellent to one another. (Don't be a jerk)
  2. Try not to repost movies that have already been posted. (If it has been over 12 months feel free to repost)
  3. If posting links for people to watch the movies let them be legal ones. (Free is best but not when it's shady, you dig?)
  4. Have fun and enjoy all the awesomeness that B movies can bring you.

When the elevators at a New York City skyscraper inexplicably malfunction, mechanic Mark Newman is dispatched to fix them. A series of strange and deadly accidents start to occur in the building, and spunky reporter Jennifer Evans shows up to investigate. She and Mark eventually team up to find out the cause of the gruesome deaths.

Director Dick Maas’ (Amsterdamned) remake of his 1983 Dutch movie De Lift. Down might not technically be a good movie, but Maas always aims to entertain, and he's definitely successful at that. You can stream it on Shudder in North America. A few more stills..

I'm giggling like a kid at the thought of a director named Dick directing a movie called The Shaft. I'm sorry.

Looks like the opening scenes of Speed! Wonder if it is inspired?

I love this movie. It straddles the line of self-awareness of its own cheese so well, and it is indeed cheesy as all hell

I will definitely watch this now that I know about it! I love Naomi Watts and will watch anything she's in.
