A film which causes the viewer to ask many interesting questions, such as “what massacre?”, and “while we’re at it, what dinosaurs?”, and “come to think of it…. what valley??”

As opposed to Neon Maniacs (1986) which just makes people ask "What?"

 :bouncegiggle:

According to legend the makers of Neon Maniacs ran into financial difficulties halfway through shooting and filming was put on hold for months. When they continued most of the stuff they had in mind didn't make it into the film including scenes to fill in the plot holes.
They rush-finished Neon Maniacs for a scheduled theatrical release even though it was still unfinished, unfortunately. I still love this movie though.

I am a lot less sure of the ones I've seen out of these. I only own copies of 4 of them.

Only 11/50 for me - I've got a lot of work to do! If this means anything though, I've seen the two Bigfoot movies on the list about 20 times each?

I've seen exactly none of the films listed

Shame on you!  And you call yourself a bad movie fan! 

Only 3, plus a couple on MST3K.

No shame in it; there isn't one I've seen that I can remember.  Now ORGY OF THE DEAD I won't forget!   :lookingup:

I seen 11 of those.
