The Boone Dock Saints
Cabin Boy
Almost Heroes...best quote...

Jackson: Sir, Higgins has a story.
Edwards: Well, Higgins the floor is yours.
Higgins: This particular event happened last summer on my uncle's farm in Virginia. My brother and I had just finished cutting a field of hay and were enjoying the evening meal under the shade of an elm tree. He went down for water by the creek and when he was gone, I took a bowl that was filled with delicious plum pudding and placed into it, not one, but two large pieces of sheep ****. When he returned I encouraged him to taste the plum pudding... And as sure as Im standing before you, he did! He ate it all. **** Pudding!
Edwards: You got your brother to eat sheep dung. That is a very interesting story.
Hunt: Tell him the ending, that's the best part.
Higgins: Oh yeah. To be perfectly honest with you sir, I have no brother. It was me. I ate sheep ****! Swear to God.
Edwards: Clever twist there on the ending. :biglaugh:

Boon Dock Saints is good. I've never seen the Warriors but I'd love to, that movie sounds like one I'd enjoy.

Willow is probably my favorite cult classic.

Boondock Saints is terrrrrrrible and so are the brohemes who think it TOTALLY rules.

My Favorite Cult Flicks:
Microwave Massacre
Faster Pussycat! Kill! Kill!
Ilsa, She Wolf of the SS
Superfly
any Japanese Big Monster movie
Brazil
The Big Lebowski

Those are just off the top of my head.....


Truth be told, most of those are exploitation flicks...If you're in the mood and you have access to Netflix Instant Watch AND if you have a penchant for offbeat/cult/exploitation films, do yourself a favor and watch "Not Quite Hollywood: The Wild, Untold Story of Ozploitation" the opening credits and scene cuts are boner-inducing.


*edit - The soundtrack to Superfly is in the top three movie soundtracks of all time.

Anyone listing the Boondock Saints as a favorite should watch Overnight, a great documentary about the guy who made it.

I'm not sure if these qualify as "cult", but here's a few that haven't been mentioned:
Dark City
Dead Man
Kelly's Heroes
The Wild Bunch
The Tao of Steve

Does fight club count?


Oh, and American History X. Not that I particularly want to see it again, but that movie does make you think.
