B movie

The term B-movie generally refers to a low budget movie with lesser known (and generally considered lesser-talented) actors. Usually the films are very campy, with cheesy special effects and gratuitous nudity, sexuality and/or violence. They are often not even released in theaters, instead going straight-to-video. They spawned a type of late night television show commonly called "Midnight Madness," where they are often shown back-to-back until the early hours of the morning.

Some of the more famous or cult classic B-movies are:

• The Girlfriend From Hell
• The Toxic Avenger
• Class of Nuke 'Em High
• Tromeo and Juliet
