B Movies Blog

Hello, Movie Mavens! Welcome back to the B Movies Blog. Today, we’re popping some movies about movies into the ol’ VCR. 

I feel like I’ve said this so many times that it’s annoying, but I love, love, love, love, love a good meta horror movie. Particularly those that focus on movies within movies. 

Now, there were several meta movies that didn’t make the cut, only because they weren’t SPECIFICALLY about movies, i.e. flicks like Behind the Mask: The Rise of Leslie Vernon (a personal favorite) and Tucker & Dale vs Evil (which I constantly quote). 

I think there’s something special about a well-executed meta movie. Not only does it provide commentary about movie tropes, but it builds upon its predecessors and molds the horror genre into something new. 

Taylor, you’re what the French call a dernière fille. 

And, in a shocking turn of events, that’s why I want to comment on reaction content. 

There are certain reaction creators on YouTube I love, like Baz, but his videos are the polar opposite of other creators, who I won’t mention. Baz not only subscribes and interacts with the creators he reacts to, but he provides his opinions and adds to the videos he shows. 

As a small creator myself, I would be livid if someone put one of my videos or blogs on their screen while they, I don’t know, got up and went to the bathroom for 10-15 minutes and then stole my thumbnail. 

TL;DR – Subscribe to Baz, give creators their credit/subscribe, share, and like their videos, and screw “reaction” creators that try to make their success off the backs of other creators. 

Cool? Cool. 

I digress. 

There are two types of periods. 

I’ve gone on a tangent and given a disclaimer, so it must be list time (see what I did there?). 

Three of my favorite movies about movies are: 

• Scream 3
• Demons 2 
• Killer Movie

With honorable mentions to: 

• The Last Matinee 
• Demons
