For anyone with a Netflix, Amazon or Now TV subscription, you will have undoubtably seen a massive list of movies available of which the majority are complete and utter garbage.
I’m not talking about movies that should have been good but turned out bad, it’s the ‘straight to video’ guff that usually features one person you may vaguely have heard about any many others you won’t have a clue about.
The whole industry behind these sort of movies I find interesting. Do people set out to make something that is garbage? Do they know at the start that this is a piece of crap and are just churning it out to make a living? Do these movies ever make any money?
