Hi Matthew Welcome to Librivox. As a "bad film" aficionado you would doubtless be familiar with the immortal works of Edward D. Wood, and also the movies starring the only and only Sonny Tufts (the favorite screen actor of Bulwinkle, from Rocky and Bulwinkle.) At Librivox, we occasionally indulge in...
