How did you find Badmovies.org?

Aye...twas several long days into a journey at sea when de crew spotted something on de horizon.  Dat be Andrew.

I really have no idea.  I was either looking for a certain movie review, or maybe I did a search on B movie reviews.  As soon as I found the forum, oh yeah, I was prattling on like nobody's business.

I can't remember for sure, but it was probably one night when I was looking for info on some old movie.  It was probably about the same time I found  The Astounding B Monster (which is regrettably still there but with no new content since 2006).

I just had Badmovies in my bookmarks for a few years and checked for new reviews once in a while.  I started lurking on the Phorum about 5 years ago, and finally decided to post something and hey, it's history now.

I was wasting time at work, looking for some bad movies that I had not yet seen, and came across this site along with a couple others. I read the reviews at several sites, most of which are gone now or at least not regularly updated. I avoided the message board for a long time, just reading the reviews. Then I finally started reading the posts and decided to join in the fun. Oddly, I think one of the first reviews I read was for the movie that is being advertised at the top of my screen right now: Jesus Christ, Vampire Hunter. Still haven't seen the movie, though.

I'd also like to see it as it was one of the last films banned by our beloved Censor Board before they went down the toilet of history.

I don't remember exactly why and how, but first I hit a post in the forum . Someone was asking for the title of a movie with teenagers whose uncle turned into a zombie and they needed an antidote to rezombify him. That really got me hooked, that someone actually enjoys these kinds of movies, especially since I just got the very DVD as a present a couple of days earlier.

Wow, lemme think about this one. I know it was 1999, cuz that's when my friends and I started our original b-movie review site "The H.O.P.E.L.E.S.S.". I'm pretty sure that my friend Mike, who put the original site together, did a web search for b-movie sites so he'd have something to put up in the page's links section. I'm 70% sure that that was how I was introduced to the Holy Grail. Fortunately my face hasn't melted off yet, but maybe there's a 10 year delay on that...

In case anybody found this forum while doing a Google search for the terms 'penis' or 'p***y', and discovered this site in that search due to the inordinate and wanton use of those words on this forum...


...you are welcome.

"the ghoul" told me about it at an otherwise boring party.

Followed a link from the IMDB while looking for a review of CEMETARY MAN.  Saw many of my other favorites were reviewed here.  Then I noticed the forum link...

Same here.

Believe it or not I was running from a rabid mutant gator (don't even ask why I was in a sewer) when my flashlight went out.  Now if you've never been in a small confined space underground without any light let me tell you it gets pretty scary lonely in the dark.  That's when I heard this grating sound and a voice shouting down from above, "If you want to live come with me!"

I didn't know it at the time but that was Andrew.  He was carrying two sticks of dynamite, a shotgun, and a dead chicken on a rope.  Actually, now that I think about it, I never really did find out what Andrew was doing hunting gators that day.  But he pulled my proverbial bacon out of the fire that day and I've been hanging out with him and his crew here ever since.

Then there was that time we all went to this crazy strip club slash bar and grill out in the middle of the Mexican desert. . .

If I remember right, I think that there was a link to a review on here on IMDb that I was checking out in terms of a particularly terrible movie.

From that point on I was hooked.

I'm more puzzled about just what Andrew was doing with the dead chicken on a rope.

You throw the chicken into the room in front of you to check for monsters.  If something bites it, then you know a monster is in the room.
