Favorite Cult Film?

[KayaBrew]

Gentlemen Broncos is a good one.

I was going to mention that one. I don't think it's cult though. It's "indie", and just about no one has seen it, but I don't think it's cult.

 

[arturo7]

By THAT definition, Tampopo is not a cult film. It was a major production in Japan. That's like saying a Miyazaki film is a cult film.

One could argue that almost any foreign film is cult. Not many people here want to read subtitles for an hour and a half.


Rubber

 

[KayaBrew]

Teenage Catgirls in Heat.

 

[Misfit]

Hmmm... too mainstream?

How about 'Undead' or 'Dead Snow'?

Much too. Dead snow was really quite good I thought

 

[Misfit]

Any fans of the gate here?

 

[TheBreweryUnderground]

They Live

 

[Airborneguy]

They Live

Classic.

 

[weirdboy]

Classic.

John Carpenter really has a lot of awesome cult classic films under his belt.

They Live
Big Trouble in Little China
The Thing
Escape from New York
Halloween

 

[KayaBrew]

Couldn't most if not all Wes Anderson movies be considered cult? The Life Aquatic surely...

Halloween no. In the past 10 years or so it has become a huge film. Back in the 90's i would agree with you.

 

[gunner65]

Evil dead 1,2 and Army of darkness. Best one liners ever.

 

[Nova5]

The Last Starfighter.

 

[cheezydemon3]

Rubber.....hell yes.

Evil dead II, best horror ever. Absolute cult classic supreme. Saw the theatrical musical version last month. INCREDIBLE.

I blame my older sister for this one, Billy Jack.

 

[Dwain]

My BIL is a serious movie watcher. He says you haven't lived until you've seen the Leprechaun series, specifically, Leprechaun in the Hood. I can't make myself watch them, they just seem too weird.

Amazing movies. I like leprechaun in space.

Two great scenes come to mind. When the girl shows the guy her tits and he goes to motorboat them. Bam. Tricked him into thinking it was a girl when actually it was a fan. Another one is when he is on a pogo stick jumping on the guys chest.

 

[TrooperThorn]

Evil dead 1,2 and Army of darkness. Best one liners ever.

Totally agree. I can't believe I didn't think of those.

Groovy!

[hoppymonkey]

Boondock saints
office space
pulp fiction

in that order.

This plus

Clerks
Requiem for a dream
Pink floyd the Wall
Fear and Loathing Las Vegas

 

[hoppymonkey]

Selma Hayek at her hottest!!

I would have to go with Dazed and Confused. I cant remember how many times I watched that in high school/college.

OH crap yeah! Salma is the hottest thing ever.

 

[weirdboy]

The best part of that movie is the Portuguese versions of all the David Bowie songs.

 

[cheezydemon3]

OH crap yeah! Salma is the hottest thing ever.

My kids were watching Spykids 2 (god save us) and I was doing my best to be out of the room. BUT....Salma plays this scientist chick with PIG TAILS......
Somehow.........hotter than D to D......(maybe).....

 

[Hang Glider]

What ? no votes for Howard the Duck?

none here, either, I'm in the Monty Python, Pulp Fiction, & Rocky Horror camp...

 

[WildGingerBrewing]

The Attack of the Killer Tomatoes

Yeeeees! One of my favorite bad movies.

Wow! Two people besides my dad and me that have seen this movie!!! I truly thought we were the only two. The same night we watched this we also watched "Cars That Eat People" Another "classic" haha

I've seen Attack of Killer Tomatoes. Blah. The theme song that makes everyone go crazy is whacked though (Puberty Love).

[damien]

What is your favorite "cult" film?

For me ... probably Dr. Strangelove

Back in the 80's really liked The Warriors too, haven't seen it in years tho.

The Omen. I was named after Damien Thorn

 

[damien]

Pulp fiction.

The best film of the century

 

[TomHanx]

American psycho
Fight club (duh)
Blade runner
The Warriors
Akira

A clock work orange and dr strangelove both really good but wouldn't say personal favorites.

I used to like boondock saints like top 10 fav of all time then watched it the other day for first time in awhile and there were so many f-bombs it kinda killed it for me. I didn't realize how terrible the dialogue was in it.

Can't believe office space is considered a cult classic but I guess it does has that kind of following. Greatness though, just think its too mainstream with Jennnifer Anniston

 

[TomHanx]

Snatch = greatness

I've seen on a few diff list after googling it... The Shawshank Redemption. Really? How is that a cult classic?

 

[TxBrew]

Aww man, I'm going to have to watch all of these this weekend. It's been too long. I'll throw out a few.

Goonies
Clerks
Army of Darkness

Three of my favorite movies right there.

 

[arturo7]

Any movie that has been shown on TV or cable, with the exception of IFC, should be booted off the list.

 

[cheezydemon3]

Arturo.....purist/threadkiller/all around good guy!!

Nice try on that one, but I predict the thread will live on.

 

[Misfit]

The goonies is so far from a cult film

 

[weirdboy]

Any movie that has been shown on TV or cable, with the exception of IFC, should be booted off the list.

I have seen Pi on cable.
