They’re super cheap, but also they serve a purpose. B-movies are a great start for upcoming directors, videographers, production designers, etc. You may have an assistant director from biger projects you want to promote, but since they’ve only worked under others you don’t want to let them potentially fuck up on a big production. Give them a disposable Christmas TV movie to test their ability to run a set on their own.

They are really cheap to produce. And there are right wing Christian investment funds behind a lot of them. They don’t need to make money on them, it’s a form of propaganda.
