What is your favourite cult movie. I liked Hair and saw it numerous times. I liked Berger. I had

[applegrove]

the album from the movie and the album to the broadway show.

[nytemare]

1. Rocky Horror Picture Show.

For sure.

[applegrove]

2. I never saw RHPS as a teen. I've only ever seen parts of it.

[dimbear]

7. The perfect recipe. Take a long running successful staqe play,

then run in a couple of Hollywood stars, and let rip. There's a light, my friends, there's a light. :)

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

3. Rocky Horror Picture Show.

Saw Hair on Broadway way back when (March, 1969), never saw the movie.

Then there's Eraserhead. I could only stand to watch it once because it's so creepy, but it's certainly... distinctive.

[AllenVanAllen]

4. The Phantom of the Paradise

it had a great soundtrack to boot.

[Iggo]

5. I was a Song Remains The Same guy.

That was my midnight show.

[GreenPartyVoter]

6. "The Gamers," and "The Gamers 2: Dorkness Rising"

[MrScorpio]

8. The Hunger

Still great.

[muffin1]

9. Heathers

[Joe Fields]

10. definitely Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas

One of Johnny Depp's finest performances. And the movie was spot on with the book.

[HappyMe]

16. I agree.

And 'House of 1000 Corpses'. It always freaks me out.

[HopeHoops]

11. "Repo Man"

[Joe Fields]

15. Yeah, Repo man was pretty cool.

[kentauros]

19. Plate. Shrimp.

Plate of shrimp.

:P

[Frank Cannon]

44. Another vote for Repo Man. n/t

[muffin1]

12. Also like "Carnival of Souls"

[Patiod]

45. Another "Carnival of Souls" fan here!

Very creepy.

.

[geardaddy]

13. Harold and Maude

[OriginalGeek]

22. My wife made me watch that when we were first dating

I don't think it had anything to do with the fact that I was 20 and she was 27 when we met...

She also made me watch the original Last House on the Left - and was mad at me for laughing through it...

And when I say "made" I mean we would skip class at tech school and go to her house and "watch movies"...

lol

[geardaddy]

24. So, did you like H and M?

[OriginalGeek]

25. Yeah it was good

but I haven't seen it since then so I don't remember much - I remember it was a ton better than LHotL though lol...

[mucifer]

46. agreed

[TZ]

14. 13 replies and NO mention of This is Spinal Tap? SHAME!

The Lounge no longer goes to 11 :cry:

[OriginalGeek]

27. I would have

but I was messing around in the Harold and Maude post.

Yeah Spinal Tap and everything those guys have done since then are some of my favorite movies.
I also love Rocky Horror...

[pokerfan]

43. It's like I don't even know this place anymore...

This is more like it...
