In this instance whatever you thought a cult movie was Spartan
I think a cult movie is a movie that usually didn't do real well at the box office but had heaps of fans after movie was taken off the screens (Somebody will correct me ,but that was my understanding anyway)

Soldier - starring Kurt Russell - another one which is sorely underrated

American Graffitti for those who remember it.

American Graffitti for those who remember it.

That was sort of a prototype for Happy Days right?

 

[cunno]

Yes it was Yoss, Happy Days was a series I enjoyed watching, way back then, hey, hey, hey, it had a different Fonz in it to the one Bug talks about. :slight_smile:

Has anyone ever seen Toy Soldiers? Watched that a hundred times when I was a kid

The 'Enforcer' with Clint Eastwood is on channel 9 at 11.30pm tonight, the Dirty Harry movies could be considered 'cult' movies I guess.

It's a more recent film which cost a truckload to make but performed poorly at the box office but I'd put Tron: Legacy into the cult film category.
