Canuxploitation

Canuxploitation is a film genre that encompasses B-movies made in Canada, especially those produced throughout the late 1970s and early 1980s to take advantage of government tax incentives. Often derided or outright ignored by Canadian critics and cultural historians, these horror, science fiction, comedy, action and exploitation fims present viewers with a film legacy that challenges a traditional understanding of Canadian movies as either languid art films or happy tales of Prairie life.

There are at least 130 films keyworded with Canuxploitation in the IMDb. Many of these are dated post80s. Some don't seem right that they would also get to be placed in this niche subgenre.

You really can't be surprised this exists. Can you?
