A place for lovers of B movies to come together and talk about them.
Rules:
- Be most excellent to one another. (Don't be a jerk)
- Try not to repost movies that have already been posted. (If it has been over 12 months feel free to repost)
- 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?)
- Have fun and enjoy all the awesomeness that B movies can bring you.

as a huge Bruce Campbell fan, how have I never heard of Jack of All Trades? thank you, gonna download it now
Jack is outrageously funny, irreverent, and a bit too adult for broadcast TV at the time.
Just like Brisco County, he was just a little early. A couple years later when the dedicated cable channels hit their stride he would've been very successful (FX, SciFi, etc).
I bought the Jack DVD's, they were like $20 - totally worth it.
Bruce is in Maniac Cop, but he doesn't get the chance to be very "Campbellesque" ;)
I've still never got round to watching Jack of All Trades, although back in the day I did catch some episodes of its "stablemate" Cleopatra 2525.
I did finally see Brisco a few years ago, such a shame it was cut short. Apparently it was during a moral panic about violence on TV, and the campaign group picked an episode of Brisco featuring a boxing match, and they counted every single punch as another incidence of violence, giving a total that made it seem like it was a Blumhouse slasher.
