I'll vote for ya.

I want to replace all of Congress with those fireman guys on the mobile phone commercial.

And I'm going to run under my Cellar name. That way I won't have to endure all of those background checks, the invasion of privacy, talk shows, and so on.

I hope I won't have to do any public speaking.

some candidates and their platforms

America is getting ready to vote in a presidential election next Tuesday, but forget that -- I've got something far more important to life on earth as we know it today: A poll for your choices for the Science Fiction B-Movie Hall of Fame! Two weeks ago I asked you all to nominate some of your cheesy favorite science fiction flicks of all time, and you came through, with over a hundred comments with suggestions. From these I've culled ten nominees, based on (in no particular order) frequency of nomination, enthusiasm for the movie by the nominator, and fundamental cheesiness of the film involved.

I tried to steer away from movies that, while cheesy, were also major productions -- for example, 1983's Spacehunter: Adventures in the Forbidden Zone, while undeniably cheesetastic, was also relatively big-budget and heavily promoted by Columbia Pictures. And since I limited the poll list to ten movies, I couldn't pick everything for this round. But don't worry. If this goes off well, we'll do this again.

And now: Your nominees -- and selected comments from the nominators. Read the reasons, and then cast your vote. The two movies which receive the highest number of votes will ascend to the Science Fiction B-Movie Hall of Fame. I'm sure their filmmakers would be proud. In chronological order:
