Movie Cult Classics Films/Movies

Ok hit me up with your favourite cult classic film.

I’m nominating So I Married An Axe Murderer.

So many quotable lines & cameos. Used to hire it out from the video store all the time back in the 90s.

The Scottish dad, La Paglia, Debi Mazar….all gold

Underrated movie that one .

That head huge its got its own post code lol.

Basic instinct.

I love 90s thrillers.

vanishing point (1971) - car chase movie, with themes of freedom, rebellion against authority, and counter culture

And a nude chick bouncing around on a Honda CB750 four.

Just watched Battle Royale (Japanese film, 2000).

Think of a cross between Lord of the Flies and Squid Game, with more gore.

Pretty ****ed up, it'll take a while to process. Tarantino said it was his favourite film from 1989-2009.

Don't look at the wikipedia entry for it, it's a full spoiler.

And if you want an Aussie cult film... Wake In Fright is hard to go past.

great picks
the 4K restoration of Wake in Fright is great. Side note, is Donald Pleasence one of the kings of cult movies? (thats a thread in itself, who are the best cult movie actors?)

I'm gonna sit down tonight and watch the 1980's remake of The Blob. I think Shawnee Smith was still in high school when she starred in it. Always loved the different deaths. Here's what's in store;

Is The Last Waltz cult? Scorsese directed but the The Band is niche these days at best.

Dark Star

We watched it every summer for a few years in the late 70s at the drive-in theater.

I think a lot of old concert movies could fall under that definition. Before the net Song Remains the Same, Gimme Shelter, Cream Farewell, Live at Pompeii, were more legendary that viewable in the 80s. It was almost cultish if you had been one of the few who had actually seen any of them.

Another State on Mind and that Athens GA documentary from the 80s played on a cable channel at least once back then, I taped them.
Cult classics if you know about them.

I feel like there are more, but maybe just some good non-MS movies with great period soundtracks like Repo Man(bona fide classic), Tape Heads, Dudes,
