Scheduled for delivery today, I get to go from Bats, to Bats in Action, to Action

Van Helsing (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0338526/)

"Bats" and "Ring of Fire" sucked, but "Van Helsing" kicks ass!

"A website to the detriment of good film"
Welcome b-movie fan. Here is a safe place to indulge in your more unsavory cinematic tastes. You watch them after family members go to bed, your significant other (hey, it is a bold new world) screws up their face in disgust every time you linger over Cool as Ice, once a friend even hit you for renting something really awful. That is all going to change now. Here is a website where you can read reviews, talk with other b-movie fans, and glorify the genre.

I think you are missing the point of this particular web site.

Well despite how right you are, we still need to know what sucks and what doesn't, otherwise we can't really say 'I liked that sucky, stupid B-movie' if everyone liked it.
Oh and Freep, I haven't seen Bats, but want to, I enjoyed Van Helsing but found it fairly forgettable after I watched it [Frankenstien's a bit of a nutter as well, really really badly exaggerated performance trying to get us to feel for him.] And also Reign of Fire had some interesting moments and was a good concept, but I felt that it sort of fell flat at the end. But the scene where Bale and friend re-enacts a scene from Star Wars as folk-lore is pure gold.
Hope you enjoy them!

Actually Dean, you did the same thing I did and confused Reign of Fire with Ring of Fire, which is what Freep watched.
Ring of Fire stars Don "The Dragon" Wilson.

Bah, I still stand by my comments, no matter how incorrect they are.
Funny thing, Ring of Fire has possibly the shortest user comment on IMDB I have ever seen.
Sounds my kind of silly.
For some reason I will pick up anything with Don "The Dragon" Wilson, Gary Daniels, or Oliver Gruner... (Christopher Lambert andRutger Hauer as well)
yeah Ring Of Fire is not going to be good.. but I don't rate movies on 'good or bad' just 'did I enjoy the last 90 minutes or so, and I have very loose standards for what it takes to entertain me. I mean, I watched "Future War" and that was not a good movie by any stretch of the imagination, but I don't regret it.
But I didn't get to see anything yesterday as I was competing in the National Open Capital Championship (a Taekwondo tournament). In my division, I placed second in Forms and first in Sparring
I also thought you were talking about "Reign of Fire".
I haven't seen "Ring of Fire", so I have nothing against it.
But my ponion about the other two still stands: "Bats" sucks, and "Van Helsing" rules.
