This week, The B-Movie Boys dive headfirst into the glitter-soaked gutter with Pink Flamingos, directed by the one and only John Waters and starring the incomparable Divine.

Set in beautiful, trashy Baltimore, the film follows Divine and her family as they defend their title as “The Filthiest People Alive” against a pair of jealous perverts who think they can out-gross the reigning queen. What unfolds is less a traditional narrative and more a full-blown assault on good taste, social norms, and occasionally your gag reflex.

We break down the cultural impact, the microscopic budget, the deliberate aesthetic choices, and whether this movie is incompetent, transgressive genius, or some unholy fusion of both. We debate camp vs. punk, cult status vs. endurance test, and whether Audacity just broke the Schlockometer.

It’s provocative. It’s historic. It’s deeply uncomfortable.

And yes. We talk about that scene.

Good Journey.

This week, the B-Movie Boys travel to Eternia… and then immediately right back to suburban America… to break down the 1987 fantasy adaptation Masters of the Universe.

Dolph Lundgren is He-Man. Frank Langella is Skeletor. Courtney Cox finds a synthesizer that may or may not control the universe. There are laser guns, foam rocks, multiple rubber-suit henchmen, and a villain performance that goes way harder than the rest of the movie deserves.

We dive into toy-line economics, budget gymnastics, earthbound fantasy compromises, and what happens when Shakespearean villain energy collides with mall parking lots.

The Schlockometer is deployed. Eternia is judged. Skeletor absolutely does not phone it in.

Tear down the good. Celebrate the bad. Good Journey.

In this episode, The B-Movie Boys confront one of the strangest films ever committed to VHS: Death Bed: The Bed That Eats (1977). Born from demonic heartbreak and powered by bubbling acid fluids, this sentient piece of furniture spends 77 agonizing minutes quietly consuming anyone foolish enough to take a nap.

We unpack the movie’s baffling lore, glacial pacing, and surprisingly earnest ambition, while debating whether a film can be boring and admirable at the same time. Along the way, they explore cursed beds, cursed filmmaking, and why sheer audacity might matter more than entertainment value. The Schlockometer is deployed. Science is disrespected. The bed is still hungry.

In our first full episode, The B-Movie Boys take on Birdemic: Shock and Terror, one of the most infamous eco-horror disasters ever committed to digital video. We break down James Nguyen’s Hitchcock-inspired nightmare, from its baffling performances and green-screen birds to its earnest environmental message and jaw-dropping technical choices. Using the Schlockometer, we examine where Birdemic fails, where it accidentally succeeds, and why movies that swing this hard deserve to be celebrated, not dismissed.
