Einstein said 'For every action there is always an equal and opposite reaction' - well 
in the world of exploitation films that isn't entirely true. For every big budget or successful film there is a reaction but whether that is equal or not is debatable. We're talking about 'rip off' films, those released to cash in on the success of the popular movie. These can be 'unofficial' sequels, titles designed to confuse viewers with the original movie or just blatant 'we have no copyright here' clones. The ironic things is that some of these productions are occasionally better than the original or at least just as enjoyable in a sideshow kind of way. For these reasons they've attracted legions of followers and collectors (here a 'legion' is defined as some where between 10 and a few dozen).
