Here's a Double Dose of Ozploitation for your Friday the 13th (incidentally, two with David Hemmings, a Brit who enjoyed much success in the golden era of Ozploitation films).
Both of these are on Prime.
So, grab a coupla or five oil cans of Fosters and sit back and enjoy some low-budget madness from Down Under.
THIRST
A whacked-out and cheesy good vampire romp.
DARK FORCES (aka HARLEQUIN)
A bugged out thriller heavily tinged with a sense of sinister WTF.

I have an exgf that was in a really bad B movie, she looked great but I have to admit it bothered me seeing her killed in an extremely gory scene. I watched it once about 30 years ago and don't remember if I even watched the whole thing. I'm sure I could find it if I looked (I've forgotten the name of the movie) but I still have no reason to see it again.

WARRIORS OF THE WASTELAND
This Italian Mad Max/Road Warrior rip-off is pure campy genius.
Teeming with strange homoeroticism, lots of cheesy post-apocalyptic vehicles, and Fred "The Hammer" Williamson, it's definitely worth a late nite, red eyed and painless viewing.

Dolemite. Because apparently dookie has never seen it. Which is a fucking travesty.
And because Dolemite is his name, and fucking up motherfuckers is his game.

Jerry Powell and the delusion of grandeur. It's on Amazon. I found it hilarious. It's about a gas huffing guy and his exploits. Worth the watch anyway.

It's in my Amazon Prime queue, fwiw.
Additionally, I have seen Shaft, Sweet Sweetback's Baadasssss Song, The Mack, Superfly, Trouble Man, 3 The Hard Way, Cleopatra Jones, Foxy Brown, and a few other seminal Blaxploitation films, but yeah, never Dolemite.
Oh, and today I learned that there was a sequel to Superfly, where he goes to Rome and joins an African revolution!?!

Yup.
Saw it in the theater.
Even interviewed MJW about it, but never sold the story.
Posted about it back in the day, too: https://www.tetongravity.com/forums/...Black+dynamite

Watched Friday the 13th Part 2 last night. Seriously comes off like a high school film class project or something. Just so, so bad. But I still watched.

Repo Man
Animal House seems to fit the criteria of B movie.
Maybe even Caddyshack
I'd put the original Terminator in the B movie category and some of Schwarzenegger's other early work too. Commando definitely.
A bunch of those early Chuck Norris flicks too.
Probably most, if not all of those Golan-Globus productions.
Star Wars - A New Hope?
Death Wish? If not the orginal, one or all of the sequels. At least DW2 had the Jimmy Page soundtrack.
A Boy and His Dog
Strange Brew
Silent Running
Tank Girl
The Groove Tube
O.C. & Stiggs
Baseketball
Orgazmo
My dad took me & my brother to see The Incredible Two Headed Transplant when we were kids. Keep waiting for that one to show up on TCM. Probably be waiting a while longer."The mind, once expanded to the dimensions of larger ideas, never returns to its original size."

Don't forget that DW had that sick Herbie Hancock score...
But definitely Charles Bronson's latter day output was hardcore B:
10 to Midnight
The Evil That Men Do
Murphy's Law
Messenger of Death
Kinjite
But he also flirted on and off with B fare early in his career.
The more I think about it, the more I believe that the Leo character in Once Upon A Time In Hollywood is partially based on Bronson's career (he did a lot of TV, then went to Europe and was successful and then came back and slipped into B action and thriller fare).

Gotta be The Creature from the Black Lagoon for me, if only for how insanely hot Julie Adams was.
