B-Movie Bingo Cards Are Here!

Get ready for a cinematic rollercoaster! I have interactive Bingo cards for all your B-Movie and Hallmark disasters. Choose your vice, and voila!

Each card is unique and randomly packed with genre clichés for each category. When you see it on screen, mark it off. And remember “Blank Square” is not a free square, it’s an event in the movie so outrageous it deserves it’s own square.

Grab your popcorn or dive into a tub of ice cream and get set for an eye-watering experience!

“[M]ovies are so rarely great art, that if we cannot appreciate great trash, we have very little reason to be interested in them.”

– Film critic, Pauline Kael in her article “Trash, Art, and the Movies

 

The Backstory of Bingo

Anyone who hangs around me or has worked with me long enough has participated in a Bingo night hosted by me. This nonsense started with a dream called “B-Movie Bingo”, which I later expanded to include Holiday films from Hallmark or the Netflix-factory. Yet the original story started long ago….

In 2006, deep in the heart of Portland and way too late at night, friends gathered to watch yet another Chuck Norris movie. We had challenged ourselves to watch every Norris film known to man, and we were drowning in the monotony. To fulfill our dreams, Dex (the visionary, at left in the video below) suggested we create a Bingo card for all the 80s or 90s-era action movie clichés. And it worked.

Fast forward years later, (I had moved away) and somehow, the Hollywood Theatre decided to pay the guys every month to host B-Movie Bingo for a paying audience. As time keeps passing, B-Movie Bingo nights are still going strong.

Watch the guys retell their version of the story:
