I love you. That is one of my favorite movies of all time. Tim Curry, Madeline Kahn, Martin Mull, Christopher Lloyd and Michael McKean all together in a movie based on a board game? Destined for greatness.MajoraPersona said:
I also enjoy most David Lynch films, except Wild At Heart but I blame Nick Cage for that.
Boondocks Saints, pretty much anything by Hayao Miyazaki (Princess mononoke, spirited away, howl's moving castle, etc.), Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind...That's all I can think of that hasn't been said.
I want to say A Scanner Darkly, but that's more of a highly regarded 'cult movie' just within my circle of friends, and hardly anyone else has seen it or cares.

Has anyone said Rocky Horror Picture Show yet? I just skimmed the posts, but I didn't think I saw it. Classic. Also:
Boondock Saints
Dogma
Office Space
Reservoir Dogs
Dog Day Afternoon
Brick
The Lost Boys

RAND00M - (from Wikipedia): A cult film (also known as a cult movie/picture or a cult classic) is a film that has acquired a highly devoted but specific group of fans.[1] Often, cult movies have failed to achieve fame outside of the small fanbases; however, there have been exceptions that have managed to gain fame among mainstream audiences. Many cult movies have gone on to transcend their original cult status and have become recognized as classics; others are of the "so bad it's good" variety and are destined to remain in obscurity. Cult films often become the source of a thriving, obsessive, and elaborate subculture of fandom, hence the analogy to cults. However, not every film with a rabid fanbase is necessarily a cult film. Usually, cult films have limited but very special, noted appeal. Cult films are often known to be eccentric and do not follow traditional standards of mainstream cinema and usually explore topics not considered in any way mainstream?yet there are examples that are relatively normal. They are often considered controversial because they step outside standard narrative and technical conventions known.[2]
