10 Absolutely Terrible B-Movies That Have Become Cult Classics

10. Miami Connection

In terms of sheer entertainment value, few good bad movies are quite as fun as Miami Connection.

Written, produced, and starring Korean martial artist Y.K. Kim, Miami Connection was made in 1987 and it really shows. The film is smothered with typical 80s style and follows a rock band named Dragon Sound as they take on various gangs of thugs and motorcycle-riding ninjas.

Kim, who had been running his own Taekwondo school before production began, used all his life savings and actually mortgaged his school to make the movie happen. Unfortunately, no film distributors were interested and the movie released in just eight screens around Orlando, Florida. It was a major flop and slipped into obscurity, but very slowly started becoming a cult hit.

Despite the dumb plot, silly scenes, mad montages, and ridiculous dialogue, fans appreciated the non-stop action and genuinely fun fight sequences throughout Miami Connection. It's a film with a lot of heart and, in 2009, a Texas film distributor got hold of the rights and decided to re-release it.

The re-release was a big success and the film started being screened at various film festivals and cinemas all around the US and internationally, helping to breathe new life into a movie that every good bad film fan needs to see.
