A list actors in B movies


I would love it if someone was able to list the B movies A list actors have starred in. Not quite sure if Jen is really A list anymore but she is still well known because of Brad Pitt and friends. The other that comes to mind is Critters 3 with Leonard DiCaprio. I don't mean just low budget but flat out cheesy bad B movies. I just remember George Clooney in Return of the Killer Tomatoes. Know anymore?

I didn't think Jennifer Aniston was as well known back then

I think the OP meant A-list actors who got their start in low budget movies. I think of:

Meg Ryan in Amityville 3-D
Matthew McConaughey and Renee Zellweger in Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Next Generation
John Travolta in The Devil's Rain
Eva Mendes in Children of the Corn V: Fields of Terror

Was watching Home alone 3 a couple of weeks ago and noticed a very young Scarlet johansson. Probably not the worst ever but pretty bad by sequel standards.

Leonardo DiCaprio – Critters 3 again not the worst movie ever made, actually its not a bad movie at all and a hell of a lot better than the 4th one.

He didn't ask for the worst movie ever made, just cheesy B movies.

Speaking of Children of the Corn, Charlize Theron was in Children of the Corn III and Naomi Watts was in Children of the Corn: The Gathering.

Gerard Butler was in a string of B movies in the late 90's/early 2000's, it was his performance in Dracula 2000 that made director Joel Schumacher cast him in the title of his adaptation of Andrew Lloyd Weber's The Phantom of the Opera. Few years later, Butler would appear in 300 which turned him into a major star.
