Bizarre titles, even stranger storylines, cheesy effects and dead-serious acting (I am not acting in a B-movie, what are you talking about? This is the defining point of my career!).

"Boiling tale of mad love that shocks even the UnEarthly..." Check that out -

Russian poster for "Star Wars".... sublime -
