The cult films you need to see Options

[Zorya]

As my Netflix list dwindles, I thought it would be fun to ask the members of the Tribe what great movies are out there, but that have a cult following as being great flicks. We could watch the movies others recommend, and have a discussion about them, if we wanted.

I'll start:

Run Lola Run. Watch it in German with English subtitles.

Donnie Darko. Watch the original version before the director's cut.

Serenity. See what all the fuss is about.

[Dive]

Great topic Z.

I haven't yet seen the three that breaker posted but the others are all excellent flicks. I'll recommend three as that seems to be the case.


Primer is the best representation of time travel I've ever seen. Super smart corporate geeks inadvertantly create a time machine. I won't give any more details but prepare yourself for a mindfuck with this movie.


Brotherhood of the Wolf combines horror, wire-fu martial arts, swashbuckling, and more! Set in 18th century france, the movie follows the investigation of a terrible monster stalking the countryside. Master naturalist/adventurer Chevalier de Fronsac and his Iroquois friend Mani encounter bloodthirsty gypsies, maniacal noblemen, and shapely french prostitutes in their quest to capture or slay the dread beast. Bonus points for starring Monica Bellucci.


Heavy Metal is the 1981 animated film adaptation of the illustrated cult magazine of the same name. Presented in vignettes, the film faithfully brings to the screen, some of the classic stories from the early issues of the magazine. Make sure you rent the special edition dvd for inclusion of a very sinister extra segment.
