Loved it as a kid, and still love it.

Dunno about Phantasm, but is Dreamscape really a "B movie"? It had a fairly impressive cast and a $6 million budget, which was not chicken feed in 1984.

This movie felt life-changing to me for a brief time as a kid

Wouldn't say I liked it. But scared the hell out of me when I was about 5 or 6 years old. The Blob - 1958

And I still like it as an adult 30+ years after I saw it as a kid

The Explorers
Remo Williams: The Adventure Begins ( I think the adventure ended too)
The Last Starfighter (maybe this wasn't a B movie but in retrospect it feels like it)

Agreed on Ice Pirates.
This was another big one for me - could not get enough of the half-tank guy. I mean, look at that fucking tagline!

Disney's The Black Hole
And I still love it. I watch it at least annually.

pretty much what was on HBO. Turk 182 and Night of the Comet are a couple that stand out in my mind.

Yeah, Godzilla when it was available.
Also stuff like Cannonball Run and the older Max Max movies.

Re: B movies you liked as a kid
Probably the first horror movie I ever watched as a kid, and I remember it distinctly. I was probably the same age, maybe just a little older. No more than 8 though. It was The 4:30 Movie on WABC-TV in NY (look that up if you never heard of it), and it was at my neighbor's house. Every commercial break, I went into the kitchen to check the clock, under the guise that I had to be home for dinner by a certain time, but in reality it was because I was scared shitless and needed to know how much more I had to endure.
BLOODFEAST
I was 4 or 5 when it was released. It was playing at local drive-in. My older sister was about 12 and word had gotten around the junior high about the movie. She talked dad into taking us to see it. For several years after, whenever I'd ask dad to go to the drive-in, he'd say "One of them better not be Blood Feast".
