How is Michael Bay not on this list?
Michael Bay is not a b-movie or z-movie director. That's why.

so how does this explain Uwe Boll?

It's because Uwe Boll's films, although big budgeted, have that b-movie vibe to them whereas Bay's films are just mainstream trash.

Well, technically he can't. But then again a lot of bad filmmakers are the same.

I had to say Joe D'Amato the mystical Italian, that no one is sure how much dreck he's ever worked on because no one's sure of all his pseudonyms. Some pseudonyms of his others used, and some were monikers for himself and another director or producer!

Where Roger Corman, who did the best with what he had (be it a sea monster which looked like Homer Simpson in a trash bag with ping-pong ball eyes) and had original ideas, D'Amato produced knock-off after knock-off; porn, and was guilty of releasing movies as squeals to larger budget movies that may have been relatively successful!

I feel really awful about saying all that.

Corman, for sure. His movies are cheap and cheesy, but they're entertaining, and pretty well made considering how little time and money goes into some of them. But then, Corman has always been about bang for the buck.

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.

    Lesson Learned:
    • Osmosis: os·mo·sis (oz-mo'sis, os-) n., 1. When a bird eats something.
