ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

B-movie

Hello there! Have you ever heard of a movie that is so simple and silly that it makes you laugh? That’s called a B-movie.

So, imagine going to a movie theater, and instead of watching a big-budget movie with famous actors and fancy special effects, you see a movie that looks like it was made with a low budget. It might have actors you’ve never heard of, cheesy special effects, and a plot that is not very complicated.

These types of movies are called B-movies. They are almost always made on a smaller budget than blockbuster movies and have a different feel to them.

But don’t think that being a B-movie is a bad thing! A lot of people love B-movies because they’re so bad, they’re good. They can be funny, entertaining or even scary, despite their flaws.

Overall, B-movies are a type of niche film that people enjoy in their own way. They are not for everyone, but they can be a lot of fun if you approach them with the right attitude!
