Faces of death is quite, like many other mondomovies (e.g. mondo cane), fabricated...
Some of the thrill (you said you don't see the point in watching it) is that you believe what you watch is real... but some obviously isn't.
Faces of Death vol 1 actually was more popular in the theatres than Star Wars, when it was released in Japan (it was only made to be released in Japan, but then got it's way to the US anyway).
yaya... nobody cares anyway ;)

almost none of those are "cult" movies, cult means that few people are obsessed with it and a lot of those are really famous. whatever.

I'd say City Of Lost Children would be a recent cult flick. And definately Pi. And, uh, the Matrix! yeah

Thats a good list - I've seen about a dozen of those.
But I don't agree with Shawshank Redeption being on that list. And maybe Blade Runner too - but it was virtually ignored on release which might qualify it for cult status.

EGGACTLY whale!
thats the point of MOST if not all of these movies......and i quote "most died at the Box Office, some of them Horribly"
but they THRIVE at the video store. i'm sure thats how they came up with that list. and while peepz have mentioned some great what i'd call 'cult' movies, they don't qualify cos they don't fall into the above mentioned!
i didn't realize Shawshank absolutely SANK at the BO....cos it's one of my most favourite movies......but apparently it TANKED at the BO......and via Video Rentals it's just blossomed!

15 - Faster, Pussycat! Kill! Kill!
something about this synopsis makes me wanna watch this movie!! hahahah maybe the title too
(1966) Russ Meyer - A thrill-seeking karate-master stripper named Varla (the supremeley bodacious and abundantly hammy Tura Satana) leads two buxotic and go-go booted cohorts on a murderous rampage in the desert. If "thrill-seeking karate-master stripper" hasn't gotten you off your butt and sent you out to the video store, then the dimestore dialogue , girl-on-girl fights, gratuitous booty shots, and incongruously arty black-and-white photography whould be lost on you anyway. Charlie's Angels gone very, very bad.
Signature Line - "Honey, we don't like nothing soft. Everything we touch is hard."
Blame it for - The band Faster Pussycat and every woman on the Sunset Strip.
damn i wanna FIND this movie......ahhahahha
*wonders how many peepz will RENT this bad boy.....errrrrr girl now?*

Big Lebowski is my #1 favorite movie.

i guess i've seen...
1,2,5,6,7,8,9,10,12,13,14,16,17,18,19,20,21,23,24,25,27,29, 31,32,34,36,41,42,43,49,50.
I wonder how that list was compiled. is is based on ticket/video/dvd sales? or is it just based on critical opinion?
I never understood the appeal of "Rocky Horror..." seems to me that only dorks and/or fat girls like that movie.
but then again, i just don't like musicals. except for 'dancer in the dark' 'spinal tap' and the south park movie.

Spinal Tap is so damn funny. God help us all. Good choice. But Slap Shot is my sentimental choice... Ol' Blue Eyes... PLAYING HOCKEY!

i can add another movie to my list!! woo hoo
i agree with evolumes thought on Rocky Horror, i don't get the appeal.....cept that Tim Curry is one of my favourite actors and should get MORE work in films than he does. otherwise it's do dated and ummm.....i dunno
the list was based mainly on video rentals....i believe thats what makes it a cult movie....the fact that it DIED at the box office, but made loads of bucks via word of mouth and video rentals!

"The Big Lebowski" is one of my favorites. "She's not my special lady, she's my fucking ladyfriend!"
Also, "Slap Shot" was not a good movie at all. It was only funny during the on-ice scenes, the rest was boring crap. And I'm a hockey fan too. BUT, it does have a HUGE cult following amongst hockey fans so it deserves its place on the list.
"Spinal Tap" = good choice for #1
