Ok oh great and powerful God of TFP what is your definition of cult classics?
mine definition is, this maybe faulty:
1) cult movie has to be at least past the inital popularity. that means past when people are going to see it at the movie theater and past seeing it on home movies
2)cult movies due to their following may return to the movie screens Rockey horror, star wars etc....
3) cult movies has to have some kind of following. it may be a small get together that people come every year or even every month. (thus the word cult). it doen't have to be a set time though. for an example once and a great while all my friends get together to watch Howard the duck and do the eighties drinking game.
4) cult movie start by some die hard movie fans showing the movie they like to everone they meet. sort of like how the boon dock saints got so big.
i may have left some things out but this is the gist of it.
