New Home of the B's...

AMC has launched a new section of their website:

Welcome to BMC

Bikinis! Monsters! Motorcycles! Welcome to BMC, your new go-to site for B-movies by the likes of John Carpenter (Dark Star) and Roger Corman (Saga of the Viking Women). Now online and in full screen, watch unsung classics like Asylum by Psycho screenwriter Robert Bloch or Corridors of Blood with the inimitable Christopher Lee. Want to see international icons before they made it big? Check out Raquel Welch in A Swingin' Summer or kung fu king Sonny Chiba in Terror Beneath the Sea. Looking for the unexpected? How about The Ruthless Four, a spaghetti Western starring Klaus Kinski. Whether it's hotrod culture (Dragstrip Girls) or beefcake epics (Hercules Unchained), BMC has got you covered.

Edit to add: Don't the Neptune men uniforms look like early versions of the Phantom costume below? Just sayin...
