Bevare! Take care! The B-Masters Cabal, the preeminent collective of old-school B-movie review sites, has finally joined the 21st century with our all-new, all-snazzy blog. Look forward to more timely announcements of new reviews from member sites, plus discussion of DVD releases and other movie news. Will the world ever be the same again? Would it want to be?

Congratulations, guys! That’s just one more place on the net to keep me entertained during the (many) lulls at work. I look forward to all the coming schlock that you all have in store.

Hey, wait! How did you find us? We were going to come out of beta this week, but were delayed by domain forwarding issues.

Lyz had a link up at her site.

Dang, I should’ve made some witty remark to the effect of, “The same way you can’t hide nuclear energy from Godzilla, you can’t hide b-movie stuff from me.” What a lost opportunity to be a wise-a**!

The beauty is that there will be many more opportunities.

Somewhere out there, Nelson Muntz is saying, “Ha! Ha!”

I really love this site. One stop shopping for all my favorite b-movie reviewers. I do wish though that there was consistency on the page with links for all the websites. I mean, some of them open in a new window some just follow the link. I’ve accidentally closed my browser several times now so I find it a little frustrating. Other than that it’s all good.
#8 by Nathan Shumate on September 14th, 2007
Hmm. I have a plugin installed that’s supposed to take care of that, but apparently it needs some tweaking. Expect a correction shortly.
#9 by Nathan Shumate on September 14th, 2007
There. All external links should now automatically open in a new window or tab (depending on your browser settings).
#10 by John Doe on September 20th, 2007
that seems to be working much better. thanks. another quick question. how much can I trust the update page? what I mean is that I used to start at one of the featured sites, typically jabootu and use their links to check everywhere else for new reviews and now I think I just want to come to this site and only go to the individual sites when they post an update. of course if that means i miss a review when it comes out, i’ll be terribly depressed and probably lash out at those closest to me in a vain attempt to alleviate . . . umm tmi huh?
#11 by Nathan Shumate on September 20th, 2007
The problem suggests the solution; if a new review isn’t posted here, you can lash out at the reviewers who should have posted their new stuff but didn’t. Win-win!
#12 by The Rev. D.D. on September 21st, 2007
Wow, this will be nice! One-stop shopping for new reviews from my favorite reviewers! Yet another place to blab about crap movies! A chance to talk to Ms. Kingsley, or at least be ignored by her! Far out.
#13 by Liz Kingsley on September 21st, 2007
That wouldn’t be a reference to my, um, erratic e-mail habits, would it??
#14 by The Rev. D.D. on September 25th, 2007
Maaaaaaybe…
Believe me, I know you’ve got more to your life than answering emails from movie geeks, and honestly didn’t expect any, but I must admit feeling a small twinge of sadness when I never got a response to my past two. It was like being told the truth about Santa all over again…

Can we include code in these posts? Like when responding to Mr Begg’s sock query I tried to embed the url in the name Sherlock Homes using the coding practices I learned posting on a php message board and the post didn’t take. what’s the frequency kenneth?

Standard HTML works fine; BBCode doesn’t. I know, it’s a pain trying to remember what fora use what markup…
