9

<p>Then you who did not start this thread have a personal view of a cult film that is not shared by others.</p>

10

<p>What do you think are cult films?</p>

<p>You don't think that 'Dr. Strangelove Or: How I Stopped Worrying and Learned to Love the Bomb' and 'Trainspotting' are cult films?</p>

11

<p>or are you refering to what drusba posted? ...anyway, this isn't a debate, it is a list of cult films and possible discussions about them. if you disagree, post your own, don't *****</p>

12

<p>maybe trainspotting, but dr. strangelove is a well known and acclaimed film. </p>

<p>drusba: some of the films you posted are classics in their genres. hardly "cult" films.</p>

<p>animal house? airplane? fast time? classic comedies
metropolis, 2001, casablanca, the graduate? not cult in the slightest.</p>

13

<p>Fast Times at Ridgemont High</p>

<p>Drusba: good call</p>

14

<p>i have always seen Fast Times at Ridgemont High as a cult film... maybe not the rest. Animal House is a close call.</p>

15

<p>The Rocky Horror Picture Show</p>

16

<p>Everything Monty Python</p>

17

<p>yeah, cause no one has ever heard of monty python or rocky horror!</p>

18

<p>Dr. Strangelove is often regarded as a cult classic. It seems as though you are in the minority not to think that.</p>

19

<p>Timothy, I don't think you understand what a cult film is. I will check wikipedia quickly....</p>

<p>eureka. here is a list of what wikipedia believes are cult films:
