Live Poll: Mockbuster Movies (Part 2)

🤪 

mockbuster is a film created to exploit the publicity of another major motion picture with a similar title or subject. These films are often made with a low budget and quick production to maximize profits. Mockbusters are made concurrently with upcoming films and released direct-to-video around the time the film they are inspired by is released. The title or packaging may be similar enough so consumers confuse it with the actual film it mimics. 

Which of these mockbuster movies surprises you the most?

Mockbuster is a portmanteau of the words "mock" and "blockbuster".

Mockbusters can be enjoyed ironically as a form of "so bad it's good" entertainment.

I always surprised by the cheek, the nerve, the gall, the audacity and the gumption!

How dare they?
