B-Movie
A "B-Movie" refers to a low-budget film that is typically produced quickly and with less emphasis on high production values. These films often feature simple plots, lesser-known actors, and can span various genres, including horror, science fiction, and action. B-movies gained popularity in the mid-20th century, often serving as the second feature in a double feature screening.
Despite their budget constraints, B-movies have developed a cult following and are known for their campy style and unintentional humor. Some notable examples include Plan 9 from Outer Space and The Toxic Avenger. These films often explore unconventional themes and can be appreciated for their creativity and charm.
