Mockbusters Episode 026 Cult Following

Do you like money? Yeah, well, so do video/movie production
companies! When a movie such as Pacific Rim or Avengers: Age of
Ultron is set for theatrical release, there are independent
production companies looking to capitalize on its momentum. Have
you run across the $5 DVD bin at Walmart? Did you notice a movie
cover that looked like Pacific Rim but was called Atlantic Rim? How
about Avengers: Grimm? That is what we discuss in episode 26 as
Mockbusters! When is it a genre as opposed to a direct rip-off?
When did it start and has it ever transcended the original source?
