This is my final entry in my Cult Films video series, I know I said #4 was but it did not feel done until now, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cult_film
Wikipedia defines a cult film as such "A cult film (also known as a cult movie/picture or a cult classic) is a film that has acquired a highly devoted but specific group of fans.[1] Often, cult movies have failed to achieve fame outside the small fanbases; however, there have been exceptions that have managed to gain fame among mainstream audiences. Many cult movies have gone on to transcend their original cult status and have become recognized as classics; others are of the "so bad it's good" variety and are destined to remain in obscurity. Cult films often become the source of a thriving, obsessive, and elaborate subculture of fandom, hence the analogy to cults. However, not every film with a devoted fanbase is necessarily a cult film. Usually, cult films have limited but very special, noted appeal. Cult films are often known to be eccentric, often do not follow traditional standards of mainstream cinema and usually explore topics not considered in any way mainstream—yet there are examples that are relatively normal. Many are often considered controversial because they step outside standard narrative and technical conventions"




I included a large cross section of Cult Films, but could not include them all, so if I am missing your Favorite it will be might in parts one, two, three, or four ..the songs used are "The Music Goes Round My Head" by The Saints and "The Movies" by Alien Ant Farm ........THIS VIDEO IS FOR EDUCATIONAL VIEWING PURPOSES ONLY AND NOT FOR SALE, UNDER THE FAIR USE ACT.This video "Compilation" is protected by copyright, Title 17, Ch 1, section 103.

  • Really great tribute, Craig! Love that "Thunder Road" was there; I watched it again recently. I find it a fascinating 'cult film', yet also to watch the dynamics of a father/son duo play brothers on screen. All the B&W films here are great! (& so are some in colour!...lol) Nice montage. 5✰

  • @PlayIt4MeAgainSam I am thrilled you liked it Lia, thanks!

  • ...Making the classics look fresh....and the recent stuff sharper.
