Bad, schlocky, camp, etc?
Feb. 20th, 2007 10:23 amIn a comment in yesterday's post,
xiphias asks:
Is it possible to make a distinction between "bad movies", "schlocky movies", "exploitative movies", and "cheesy movies?"
My short answer is, "sometimes." I'll also throw "camp movies" into the mix.
That said, I'm also a little overwhelmed at work today, with no time to seriously write up my thoughts. So I'm throwing the discussion open to all of you. Discuss amongst yourselves, and let me know how you distinguish between the various kinds of movies listed above.
