B-Movie Hall of Shame

[The Burgomaster]

If you are a sports fan, you have probably had at least one disagreement with someone about players who should/should not be in the Hall of Fame.

I think it would be great if someone opened a B-Movie Hall of Shame.  It would be a museum where you could go to see props, posters, wardrobe, film clips, etc. associated with B-Movie personalities.  There would be annual ballots to vote in new inductees, and only the worst of the worst would become enshrined.

Who would be on your ballot?

What are the items that you would like to see on display?

Anything created by monster maestro Paul Blaisedale.

that's a pretty cool idea, you could have cool, wierd categories like "best wax special effects in a b-movie," with runner ups like The Incredible Melting Man and Hellraiser. Or another one could be "The most painfully unbearble movies to watch without MST3K or a mind-altering substance," with Manos as the main runner up!

Ed Wood as a founding member.

Have yearly nominations for worst costume and worst portrayal of a monster.

The Hall of Masks

Jason's hockey mask
Michael's William Shatner mask
A whole assortment of monster masks

you get the picture.

Ed Wood as King of B-Movies and Roger Corman(maybe Criswell) as narrative guide throughout the museum.

I would think an homage to all the Roger Coman films that use footage from "Battle Beyond The Stars" would be in order...

Went to Tombstone, Arizona last Spring and Vincent Price did the naration on a history diarama that you can view at the site of the O.K. Corral and museum. I was pleasantly surprised.

Ash's chainsaw and/or "boomstick"
One of the cheesy, mid 70's Godzilla suits
David "Frankenstein" Carradine's car from "Deathrace 2000"
Snake Plissken's guns

Inductees:
Ed Wood
Roger Corman
Bruce Campbell
David Carradine
George Romero
John Carpenter

Jeez, the list goes on...

[Scott]

Not bad Matt for a guy who's only seen 9 movies.  : )

[Flangepart]

How about a video format wing devoted to "the most seen stock footage of all time"?
And, maby some talks by famous B-people. Bob could bring tales fromt the basement, some of the gang from MST3K could give "Riffing Lessions", that sort of thing.

[trekgeezer]

Yes, it needs to include that  V-2 rocket footage that was used in every space opera made during the 50's.  Going up for blast off and reversed for landings.

Ray Harryhausen gets a wing

Ray Harryhausen gets a wing

So do Vincent Price and John Saxon.

[Evil Matt]

Yeah, but I read a lot of stuff about the movies I haven't seen.  Especially because no one's gonna write a book about House Party 3 anytime soon.
