Yes I liked Leon very much, and a cult movie which I found good/different and interesting was "Dead Man" with Johnny Depp and Lance Henriksen, shot in black and white.

 

Also a different one, not REALLY cult, was, "Door to Door" with William H Macy...….very good and a true story.

True Romance is great movie, script by Tarantino, to me better than his much more recognized movies, and what he  actually directed.

 

Not excactly cult film, but a classic, and  one of my favorites 'Dog Day Afternoon'.

 

 

 

'Boogie Nights', not cult film, now receiving recognition  and praiss it never got, when released. 

 

 

 

True cult, 'Le Samourai',

Alain Delon as a hitman, minimalist Euro Noir

Cult...…….well not really, but thought Reservoir Dogs and Twelve Monkeys were great. Oh and Angel Heart was "different" and had to watch it twice to the bottom of it!

Ellie Parker 2005. Not sure if you'd call it cult, but it's one of my favourite lesser known films. Shows what a great talent Naomi Watts is.

What does "cult" mean? "To hell and back" with Audie Murphy, does that count?

I liked The Legend of Barnie Johnston

 

I don't know if Brazil counts as a Cult Movie, or Corpse Bride.

 

For a Korean Western, you can't beat The Good, The Bad and The Weird.  If your Korean is not so hot, like mine, then try to get the subtitled version.  Maybe you can beat it, I've not seen any others, to be fair.

I just watched this and as a "mild critic" depp has to count his blessings on the co performers here..music score akin to sergio leoni if my spelling is ok saying that .. Black and white was the greatest move from the director..never the less brilliant ! cheers TD

Cult is up to your opinion in that you would argue the toss but come to an agreement ??

For me Cult could mean Breaking bad  or Ray donavan..or it could mean The Beverely hill billys  and even Coranation st. your shout !

Ladri di biciclette (The Bicycle Thief)... a must watch.

Great movie, but it's The Duellists, with Harvey Keitel I believe.

Correct , another fave of mine from long ago was Ace in the hole...which i consider a ground breaking step into realism of the "hero wins the day: . duhhh the loser as a reporter..i am i wee bit tipsy here in the boonies of Surin ..please carry on.

If you have Netflix, 'The ballad of Buster Scruggs' a coen bros movie,very very,good.

Now this is the one i want to see ! just discovered it today, but its way way past my bed time, catch up Prung nee. TD.

a 'cult' movie usually describes something that has a following but no official accolade like the well regarded Tarantino and David Lynch films mentioned above which have been honored at Cannes as well as other places...Night of the living dead and The rocky horror picture show come to mind as 'cult' movies...Bicycle thieves aside from winning awards has been honored as one of the greatest films of all time and rightly so...

 

what we are talking about here are our favorite obscure films...and don't get me started on that one...(teetering on the precipice and then 'arghhhh!!'...)

 

The battle of Algiers

Memorias de subdisarrollo

El Chacal de Nahueltoro

Cutter's way

Mon oncle antoine

Los olvidados

Breaker Morant

A woman under the influence

Gloria

and most of Robert Altman's output...to start with...
