What is your cult movie ?

[jeff30997]

Really! What movie did you saw 10-20 times ?

I saw The Doors at least %$? times !

So don't be shy.

[jeff30997]

14. Seen it 4-5 times...

Some of my friends didn't like it and I don't really understand why because

that movie was truly original! A GOOD S-F Movie that is mocking the S-F stereotypes ?

SUPERB!!!

[MrScorpio]

24. I can explain it to you

What do you want to know?

[jeff30997]

28. I'm not sure what you mean...

I loved the movie and understood all the satire and sarcasm.

Hey BTW,one of my friend was in the movie!

Ève Salvail.We studied photography in Quebec together in college.

Great person.Super nice and not a snob at all.

[SPKrazy]

117. seen it a bunch

the die hards

speed

armageddon

full metal jacket

geez

many many others

:P

:bounce:

[Zookeeper]

136. I thought I was alone in liking that movie...

It's over-the-top, fast paced, funny. Not High-Art, but very entertaining.

I know a lot of people who hated it, though. :shrug:

[RevolutionaryActs]

2. I have a ton!

But my biggest would have to be Moulin Rouge!, I've seen that about 100. Um yeah. :P

[jeff30997]

18. Damn! Never saw it !

I promise you that I'll watch it ASAP !

[RevolutionaryActs]

19. It's a weird movie

and the beginning is very.. uh.. frantic. But I can act it out. :P

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0203009/

[jeff30997]

26. Weird movie ?

I love weird movies!!! I'll take a look and if I find it somewhere I'll watch it you can bet on it!

[DarkTirade]

98. I have too, but not voluntarily. :)

Roommates watched it incessantly for about a year.

[sasquatch]

143. What no Big Lebowski?

Oh and don't think I've forgotten.
:spank:

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

4. Airplane.

I've seen it a whole lot of times.

[Demintheusa]

104. That one never gets old.

[City of Mills]

5. Duel

It's always a fun movie to watch!

[jeff30997]

31. Hi ByTheRiver !

Love that movie!

Did you know that before Duel Spielberg directed a Colombo movie ?

[City of Mills]

32. I did not know that!

Off to imdb.com I go!

[RiffRandell]

6. Liquid Sky and The Wall

Sigh. I'm so old now----37---:cry:

[jeff30997]

20. Liquid Sky ?

I don't know much about this movie.Can you tell me a little bit about it ?

[Fire Walk With Me]

29. Blade Runner, and perhaps Liquid Sky.

I've seen BR far more times, though, if that's the given measure of a personal cult movie...

[jeff30997]

33. Blade Runner...

Best S-F Movie Ever !!!

[DS1]

76. No. That would be Alien

But Blade Runner has the best effects ever, still beats out the cgi crap

[jeff30997]

86. Weird coincidence !

Yesterday I was wondering which was the best movie directed by Ridley Scott
and of course I was stuck between Alien and Blade Runner...Tough choice.

[DS1]

87. I have to go with Alien

As much as I love Blade Runner, it's not much more than a futuristic dystopian western. I do love the look and effects.

Alien, on the other hand, introduces the classic isolation theme with totally alien beings - twice - ! Scott, however, did rip off his own landing sequence graphics from Alien when the spinner is taking off in Blade Runner, just reversed.

Of course another argument is whether Blade Runner was true enough to the source to really be based on a short story by PKD

[jeff30997]

88. Great analysis of the two movies....

And I come to the same conclusion.

In short(I'm going to bed now),Alien is the best movie

that Ridley Scott ever directed.

But Blade Runner is really a masterpiece.

However for that movie most of the credit goes

to Philip K. Dick.A Great Writer.

[RiffRandell]

96. Hear you go.

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0085852/

[jeff30997]

37. "I'm so old now----37"

Hey kid,I just turned 40 last june.That was a shock and now I feeling old!!!:cry:

[Zookeeper]

137. I saw Liquid Sky when it was first released...

'talk about OLD! :P

I haven't seen it since then, although I did like it.

[Nomad559]

7. My Cult Movie For 2007- V for Vendetta

I have seen V for Vendetta about eight times.

[jeff30997]

30. Seen it twice...

And I plan to see it again.When fiction meet reality,if you know what I mean.:)

Kinda predictable for a DUer, I guess.

[unsavedtrash]

[Twillig]

118. I'm hungry for a plate O' shrimp.

http://www.furmovie.com

[AlCzervik]

34. Shaun of the dead and 28 days later.

[bridgit]

same group still way funny http://www.hotfuzz.com :rofl:

[AlCzervik]

36. oh yeah i saw it and then bought it, hilarious!

I loved the overdone sound effects, that cracked me up.

[bridgit]

38. we netflix't it the other day, love it when his partner say, "Oh, I use my notebook too!"

and he's got that little animation in there shit! that was funny!! :rofl:

[Rob H.]

146. In the DVD extras menu, there's "Flick Book: The Other Side"

It's a short clip of the animation that's on the other side of the pages of Danny's notebook. It got cut from the movie, but it's funny, too.

One my favorite lines was Danny's "By the power of Greyskull!" :D


Edit: found "Flick Book" on youtube if you've already sent the DVD back: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OJi5W4tc4jU.

[DS1]

39. It was okay

Great promise, but got silly with the 'town cleaners'

[bridgit]

40. no way around that it *was* silly...

:dunce:

[stuntcat]

43. yes

2 beautiful movies :headbang:

[Zookeeper]

129. I love both of those, especially "Shaun of the Dead."

We bought "Hot Fuzz" on DVD today and are going to watch it in a few minutes. :bounce:

[LynzM]

41. Real Genius, and Monty Python and the Holy Grail, and The Princess Bride

Because, you know, having one cult movie would be silly of me... :crazy:

[jeff30997]

73. Monty Python = Instant Cult Movie !

My favorite one: The Meaning of Life.

[jeff30997]

79. "The Princess Bride"

Yes,that movie really was fantastic! I've seen it at least 5 times.Really Romantic and funny...

"Hello. My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father prepare to die."

Love it and I think I'll go rent it again,thanks for reminding me that great movie!

[LynzM]

111. Yep, I love it....

Mayhap that's what I'll do with my evening when I get home tonight... now to decide between that and the other two! :rofl:

[Ahpook]

45. Not sure if it's "Cult" or not..

Natural Born Killers is one i have watched quite a bit.

It did piss quite a few people off when it came out... but, tough shit. Don't watch:)

[jeff30997]

51. "It did piss quite a few people off "

Bwahahahahh!Great movie!Let them eat piss!

50. The big lebowski

[jeff30997]

54. Hi HEyHEY !

Maude Lebowski: What do you do for recreation?
The Dude: Oh, the usual. I bowl. Drive around. The occasional acid flashback.

But my favorite quote:"I’ll suck your cock for a thousand dollars "

Whoa! After that I fell in love with Tara Reid...And then she had that horrible boob job! :(

[stanwyck]

55. My family text messages each other

lines from "The Big Lebowski". "Is this your homework, Larry?"

[jeff30997]

75. Hehehe...n/t

[Lethe]

152. The Dude Abides

love that movie

[Oeditpus Rex]

53. 10-20? Quite a few

I've seen "American Graffiti" about 40 times and "Monty Python and the Holy Grail" about 60.









Fear me.

[jeff30997]

80. Well my dear Oeditpus Rex...

(OK CaliforniaPeg I will pay you for copyrights:) )

American Graffiti,maybe 7 times,but damgambit I never saw Monty Python and the Holy Grail !

Gee! Not available in my rent-a-DVD near were I live.

[EFerrari]

56. The Princess Bride, The Milagro Beanfield War, Ghostbusters

Crimes of the Heart.

If you want, I can write out the scripts. :)

[stanwyck]

57. Stuart Saves His Family

with Al Franken and Vincent D'Onifrio. Like "Spinal Tap", it's one of those movies that when its on, you have to watch. Same for "Shawshank Redemption" and "Hudsucker Proxy".

[Redneck Socialist]

58. Pulp Fiction

I saw that movie four or five times in the theater alone.

I've also seen Brazil about a brazillion times as well.

[jeff30997]

83. Brazil = Masterpiece

Saw it 3 times and I think I'll watch it again and again and...

[sakabatou]

60. Akira

[ghostsofgiants]

Err...Bugs freak me out! Your .gif is very disturbing for me...

Of course you can put whatever you want in your sig but...

I really love your posts but the bug is really freaking me out.

Just saying.

:scared:

[JTG of the PRB]

62. Mars Attacks!

One of my favorite sci fi/B/spoof movies ever made. I usually manage to break it out once every couple of months, so I've seen it at least 25-30 times.

[opiate69]

63. Clerks, Clerks 2, Dogma, Lebowski, LOTR, Pulp Fiction, Clockwork Orange, Fish Called Wanda

[susanna]

64. Boondock Saints, bay-bee.

LOVE that crazy movie. :-)

On edit: watched it about 30 times.

[sasquatch]

144. Me too!!

:woohoo:

[susanna]

145. YAY!

Another BS fan. ;-)

Sorry it took a bit to respond, was at the Michigan State Fair the last two days. I came back to DU to find my "last 48 hours" empty. I felt useless, so I searched...

sasquatch...

:yourock:

[Tikki]

65. 'She'....with Ursula Andress and Peter Cushing...

I've watched it about half dozen times.






Tikki

[Fire Walk With Me]

66. Ursula Andress... Growlrlerwrlrlr...

84. Hehehe...

[edbermac]

67. Anything by Stanley Kubrick.

[FloridaJudy]

68. Bagdad Cafe

http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/bagdad_cafe/

A quirky little movie about the unlikely friendship that grows between an obese German tourist, and her discombobulated African-American landlady. My sister and I probably own the only two DVDs made of this movie.

We usually watch it half a dozen times whenever we get together, which is only every few years.

(edited to add the link)

[NMDemDist2]

94. OMG!!!! me too!

SISTAH!!

:hi:

[NC_Nurse]

100. Love that movie!

:hi:

[MilesColtrane]

134. Great soundtrack!

I love "Calling You" by Jevetta Steele. It's absolutely haunting and beautiful.

[flvegan]

69. I've seen "Rocky Horror..." well over 100 times.

Outside of that, I'd have to say "The Punisher" is my most viewed...that or one of the Monty Python flicks.

[jeff30997]

72. I've seen Rocky Horror 3-4 times...

Very original movie especially back then but I saw it 2 or 3 times only.I guess I'm not a fan...

But I have to admit it was a kick in the nuts for the fundies,hehehe...:)

[DarkTirade]

97. Which Punisher?

Dolph Lundgren or Thomas Jane?

[flvegan]

113. Thomas Jane

I wouldn't put myself through 2 hours of Lundgren.

Edited to add: The other REALLY cool thing about Punisher is that it was filmed in my home city.

[rucky]

77. Raising Arizona - at least 7 times

Spinal Tap - 'bout as many

Tape Heads - 4

Office Space - 5

Airplane! - ump-teen

[jeff30997]

85. Yep!

Anything made by Ethan Coen and Joel Coen is instant cult movie.

[Fire Walk With Me]

151. Yay! Tape Heads!

If you liked Repo Man, John Cusak, or Tim Robbins, you should see Tape Heads.

"Teach me to read!"

[lutefisk]

78. A Hero Never Dies

I really admire Hong Kong director Johnny To. I just love Hong Kong cinema in general.

[AnotherDreamWeaver]

81. I would like to see "Zardoz" again

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zardoz
But I don't watch films over and over...

[KT2000]

91. Yes - have seen that one

quite a few times over the years

[MilesColtrane]

89. "Dazed and Confused"

Because it's such a complete vignette of my high school years.

"This is Spinal Tap"

Because it goes to 11

"Enter the Dragon"

For the beautiful documentation of the one guy who could rip your heart out and show it to you before you died.

[Bryn]

90. V for Vendetta & Lord of the Ring

Several times. I cannot watch a movie twice usually, but I love these two! :)

[DarkTirade]

92. Oh, I've got a few.

Hedwig and the Angry Inch - Lost count of the number of times I've seen it. Listened to the soundtrack at least three times as many times as I've seen the movie, if only because I don't own my own copy of the movie.

Original Star Wars trilogy - Lost count. Watched it on a regular basis throughout my entire childhood and teen years.

Stargate - Lost count. Bastards stole my idea, but still a cool movie. :)

Real Genius - The best bad 80s movie ever. Need to get a copy, only seen it somewhere in the 8 to 12 times range... :)

Short Circuit - Gotta count 1 and 2 in here, don't think I've seen either one alone enough times to count as a cult movie, but the two together make the second best bad 80s movie. :)

Back to the Future Trilogy - Best non-bad 80s movies.

The Goonies - The second best non-bad 80s movie after the Back to the Future trilogy.

Who Framed Roger Rabbit - Lost count of the number of times I've seen this movie, and I've noticed just about every single mistake and whatnot in there. Despite the fact that it was technically made in the 80s, this isn't really an '80's movie'. It's a timeless movie.

Lord of the Rings trilogy - Not the short versions, the long ones. Yeah, I watch 'em all the way through. Fairly often. And I still get misty-eyed every time I hear 'Into the West' and the riders of Rohan theme. I know. I'm a geek.

If I had my own copy of Rocky Horror, I probably would have seen it enough to qualify that as one of my cult movies, but I've only seen it 8 or 9 times, not 10. :)

[DarkTirade]

153. Oh, almost forgot to mention Princess Bride

I've got that one memorized. :)

[MnFats]

93. can I get a shout out for "Fargo?"

living here it's sort of mandatory.

"I guess that's your friend in the wood chipper, then."

"He's fleein' the interview"


"Dat don't sound like such a good deal for him, den."

[Auggie]

95. Eating Raoul

Still cracks me up. Seen it probably over 50 times.

"Can you buy a new frying pan? I'm a little squeamish about cooking in the one we use to kill people."

and

"I just killed a man."
"He was a man. Now he's just a bag of garbage."

[SCDem]

99. Harold and Maude

I own it so I have seen it quite a few times - I love the Cat Stevens Soundtrack and the contrast between the darkness of Harold and ligtness of Maude. And yet at the end Harold is the one living and enjoying life.

[Auggie]

114. This is my second favorite cult film

Vivian Pickles and Ruth Gordon... what treasures!

[Richardo]

101. I've lost track of the number of times I've watched 2001: A Space Odyssey

Most of them in the theater. Certainly more than 20.

[NC_Nurse]

102. Many of mine have been mentioned. I'll add

Young Frankenstein
The Pink Panther and The Return of the Pink Panther
Plan 9 from Outer Space
Glen or Glenda
Ed Wood
The Hudsucker Proxy
Time Bandits

[stuntcat]

106. ooooo Young Frank!

what a PERFECT movie

[terrya]

105. I've seen "Xanadu" at least 15 times.

:-)

[Mad_Dem_X]

109. Ha! Me, too.

But I guess my "cult" movie would be The Usual Suspects.

[leftofthedial]

107. Tremors

although I've also seen The Fifth Element many times

[Zookeeper]

135. Tremors is excellent.

Funny, scary, not pretentious.

:thumbsup:

[Orsino]

108. Kelly's Heroes

Seen it at least a dozen times.

[carly denise pt deux]

110. I LOVE The Doors........I have seen Animal House too many times to count

I have seen it too many times to count...the actors look like twins to the real characters, amazing.

[CabalPowered]

112. Caddy Shack

I've watched it at least 40 times.

"Pool, pond. Pond would be good for you."

[oregonjen]

115. "Somewhere in Time" with Christopher Reeve and Jane Seymor

[XemaSab]

116. Shallow Grave

:D

[bicentennial_baby]

123. "It's not a story Alex! It's a corpse!

:D

[XemaSab]

125. "But you're a doctor, Juliet, you kill people every day!"

:o

[bicentennial_baby]

132. They went up there alive and came back down dead!

Did you notice that? The difference, I mean: alive, dead, dead, alive, that sort of thing? It wasn't difficult to spot. He killed them both.

:o

[XemaSab]

133. When you get up in the morning

how do you decide which shade of black to wear? :shrug:

[libodem]

119. Polyester

staring, Divine. It's a John Water's film about a dysfunctional family, done soap-opera style. And Brazil.

[CTyankee]

122. "Chariots of Fire" and the "Godfather" trilogy

I can't get enough of any of these. We see "Chariots of Fire" about 3 times a year at home and I used to watch any "Godfather" that was on TV (Hubby doesn't care for them so we don't have the DVDs). I'd like to get started with the Godfathers again!

[emmadoggy]

124. Hmm. I have several that I can watch over and over...

A Life Less Ordinary
In & Out
Parenthood
Addicted to Love
Shakespeare in Love
Pulp Fiction
The Fifth Element
Field of Dreams
Legends of the Fall
Interview with the Vampire
Bull Durham
The Color Purple
Independence Day
Gladiator
Thelma & Louise
Die Hard
Dances with Wolves
Titanic

There's probably more, but I've seen all of the above several times at least.
:hide:

[sniffa]

126. midnight madness

michaeL j. fox's first movie.

[BarenakedLady]

127. The Philadelphia Story

I have no idea how many times I've seen it.

Valley Girl - also lost count.

[Zookeeper]

128. Eraserhead....

Roughly 10 times at Midnight showings. (And I walked home afterwards.)

Mr. Z. bought it for me recently on DVD. I still love it and have fun freaking out my teenage kids and their friends with it. :D

[tigereye]

130. Harold and Maude

Spinal Tap
Blade Runner


on edit Satyricon - simply amazing.

[Skittles]

131. ditto on Harold and Maude

a true cult classic :thumbsup:

[mockmonkey]

139. I don't know many times I've seen these

"The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension", I LOVE John Lithgow as Dr. Emilio Lizardo.

"Dead and Buried", Jack Albertson is a HOOT in this horror movie.

"Blood and Concrete, a Love Story", Quirky funny movie.

Damn, I need to watch these again!

[Norrin Radd]

140. When I was a kid -- Clash of the Titans.

Now -- Zoolander.

[Kazak]

141. INLAND EMPIRE

That just trumps everything for me right now. I've seen it about four times now, but it's still a fairly new movie, though I'd say it definitely already qualifies as "cult".

[Godhumor]

142. Tombstone and Soldier

Kurt Russell has a talent for picking those kind of movies (I'm sure I'll be adding Grindhouse to the list once it hits DVD--loved it in the theater.).

[WinkyDink]

147. RHPS---At least 15 times (a piker, I know!). But hey, I have Tim Curry's autograph on the album!

Went to "Spamalot" just for the chance!

[bamacrat]

148. Big Trouble in Little China.

Kurt Russell and a pre Sex in the City Kim Catrall. I also am a fan of the Big Lebowski, Pulp Fiction, Monty Python and the Holy Grail.

[EstimatedProphet]

149. Several - Excalibur, Fantastic Planet, Dark City, Mars Attacks!, Repo Man

[Deep13]

150. Return of the Living Dead

[Left Is Write]

154. Dazed & Confused. No idea how many times I've seen it.
