So here's the deal kiddies and kidettes: There's no place you can go to watch crap movies anymore, which is really quite a shame. I'm sure some of you out there recall those heady days before drinking was legal (or you met that creepy older guy who was always hanging around trying to score with fourteen year old), settled in front of a television set anxiously awaiting the familiar southern drawl of Joe Bob Briggs or Rhonda Shear's sex kitten intonation on the word 'up'. Yeah, I miss it too. So here's a little blast of awesome, courtesy YouTube and a handful of bad movie enthusiasts, just trying to keep an American tradition alive.
Ah, Joe Bob. You know he hosts an Oscar party every year. Gotta get to that one of these days...
The ever awesome Rhonda Shear, who brought me so very many censored soft core porno movies and the occasional bad horror film.
Without Sandra Bernhard, I never would have picked up all those Russ Meyer movies at the video store. Sure, Reel Wild didn't show movies in their entirety, but it was a good show nonetheless.
What can I say about Cassandra Peterson that hasn't been said about breasts a hundred times before? These are the people who changed my youth. There are others, sure - Penn and Teller used to host Monstervision before Joe Bob and Gilbert Gottfried switched out with Rhonda Shear every other weekend and there was that local broadcast of B movie cinema...
But I digress. True American heroes, all of them.
