Bikinis, bullets and Jimmie JJ Walker, "Dynomite!"

I like crappy horror movies and SyFy's originals never disappoint.

Recently watched "Long Island Cannibal Massacre" and "They Don't Cut The Grass Anymore" for the first time. Now trying to track down a copy of "Weasels Rip My Flesh". Sheer brilliance.

I like B-movies and Syfy's offerings disappoint pretty much every time. Real B-movies may not have had much of a budget, may not have had very talented people in front of or behind the camera, may have had crappy special effects, but the people involved were trying to make the best picture they could with their limited resources and skills. There was an earnestness there, which often makes the pictures unintentionally campy. The people who make Syfy's movies make crap, know they make crap, and don't care if the make crap. It is a low grade, cookie cutter product.

For a decent shark movie check out The Reef. It is low budget done right.

Titled 'Shark!' and also, 'Caine', this 1969 Burt Reynolds flick had a stuntman killed by a shark and contains a knife fight with a shark:

Is this real or am I'm dreaming?

I found an even better trailer that contains an F-15, missiles and shows Super Shark has some serious skills:

All kinds of marathons this weekend. If I watch, it will probably be AMC's War Heroes weekend--all war movies, including the Dirty Dozen, Midway, Patton, and the Longest Day.

Oh, I just re-watched the Dirty Dozen, such a great flick.
