Um…I’ll get right back with you.
Sadly, the G.B.U is a one-person operation so far. Said one person, Chad Denton, is an undergraduate in Fredericksburg, Virginia, who fashions this site out of his own crappy, outdated computer and the school’s computer labs. He’s also an aspiring writer who dabbles in depressing, Morrisey-esque poetry (is there a self-respecting college student who doesn’t?), short stories, brief plays about historical figures like Catherine de’ Medici and Judas Iscariot, and is currently working on a non-b-movie related book tentavely titled A Guide to Mad Monarchs and Tyrants in European History and a (still unpublished) comic book series called "Shaw Tener: Reality Repairman." Except for a website called "The Verdict" which reviewed comic books and had the lifespan of a boy band, this is Chad’s only venture into the online world.
The cream of the crap, so to speak. The definition really varies, but basically they’re movies that, despite being awful by most standards of cinematic quality, are fun to watch, especially in a group setting. These are not to be confused with Y-Movies, which just suck, like Jurassic Park III.
Heavens no. College and George W. Bush’s ‘residency’ have.
Mostly horror and exploitation, although I’ve also been developing a knack for obscure fantasy and sci-fi films. Unlike a lot of my "competitors" and my host Nathan, I still haven’t developed a taste for wire-fu, but there’s still time.
Oh, there’s been a few. The only b-movie that I’ve positively, absolutely loathed was Vice Academy, which was my ‘Nam. I’m proud to say that I’ve never hit STOP on a b-movie…not yet, anyway.
Officially, I’m now trying to do a film or two a week. Unofficially, it’s on a "whenever the hell I feel like" basis. I’m trying to avoid the huge gaps of inactivity that have plagued my site since joining Cold Fusion Video though.
Sure. It doesn’t mean I’ll see them necessarily, but I’ll consider it. I love getting e-mails, even death threats. It reminds me people actually read this (which is important, since I don’t get paid for it).
Sure. Two independent productions, Lethal Force and Concealment, have both been happilly reviewed by myself. E-mail me and I’ll give you my mailing address. Just don’t expect me to get to it right away…
