Terminator did so-so business at the box office. It wasn't until HBO and home video that it took off. That's part of the reason the sequel was so far off. And Blade Runner had a huge budget for its time, roughly $30 million if I recall correctly. It did not make its money back in theatres. It built its audience in people's homes, not in the cinemas.

That's a bomb, not a cult movie.

And Terminator did $34M at the B.O. in '84 - quite good.

VoicesCarry said:

I didn't realize Terminator made that much in the theatre. And, yes, I know not doing well in the theatre makes a film a bomb Many cult films bombed in the theatre.

VoicesCarry said:

always grasp your sarcasm , Ripher2shreds is kinda off on those, I mean something like Howard Duck , but both those movies were too loved to be cult.

VoicesCarry said:

Stop watching Brown Bunny already.....

lilgish said:

Killer Klowns From Outer Space and Motel Hell - both cult horror. There's a lot of cult horror I like.

shit, you beat me to it.

lilgish said:

I merely downloaded the best part

Chloe's a very nasty girl. And the dialogue during that scene is absolutely hilarious. Gallo has a little girl voice. Too bad he didn't convince Xtina Ricci to do the same thing in Buffalo 66.

lilgish said:

I'll grant you Terminator. I was under the impression it didn't do well in theatres, and didn't do my research. But I stand by my assertion that Blade Runner is a cult film. One of the best Web film resources, filmsite.org, backs me up on this one.

Although a GREAT movie!







and Im suprised noone mentioned...

I love this movie! Sort of the Scream of its generation. It threw me for a loop when I saw it as a teenager and Marcia Brady was feeling herself up.

I'll put this shit on a cult list, Mcdonalds meets E.T meets shitty actors meets good times

RipHer2Shreds said:

Then you should also see:



With Melissa Sue Anderson!

And Glenn Ford no less.

lilgish said:

I remember that movie. Low-rent, but OK.

VoicesCarry said:

Damn....

VoicesCarry said:

Seen it a million times over! This was another that HBO played to death! Glenn Ford was kinda hot when he was young. Yeah, not so much in Happy Birthday to Me.

is that lindsay lohan on the poster?

Another HBO movie they played to death was about roller derby called SOLARBABIES


who remembers that?

I've changed the title of the thread to reflect my intent...and to save myself future headaches

Anxiety said:

Gratuitous starlet bashing! And how can you tell that's not the other half of the Skeletwins, Nicole Richie?

lilgish said:

I remember that Ebert hated that flick.

/never seen it

VoicesCarry said:

SOLARBABIES is off the fucking hook, I mean haven't seen it in about fifteen years, but that movie was one of my favs as a kid.

lilgish said:

Maybe I'll check it out.

Anybody who had HBO in the 80's knows that the movie they played the most was
Club Paradise with Robin Williams. I mean every fucking day that movie was on

A HbO movie that I'll give lilgish cult status is Space Camp
