This movie aired in late 2010 or 2011 , yet Cult status may be nearing any day now, " RUBBER ". This movie was about to begin, just as I was sitting down for the evening cable show. It was actually a primiere movie , so I watched with anticipation. This movie is sorta " campy " , but worth the LOL or disgust, whatever comes first.
The series " Dark Shadows " ,original set in the 60's or 70's. Forego Ben Cross and other pretenders. This is the original Vampire series , with Barnabas Collins ( vampire ) and Angelique ( witch ). Some- how it claimed soap opera / love story status. I mean, really, aren't most series ?
" Seinfeld ", a very thought provoking and witty series, starring Jerry Seinfeld.
" Being Human " isn't vintage, but it's owned it's place among Cult Classics. It's still airing on BBC, and new season beginning this autumn. The story involves a ghost, a werewolf and a vampire.
Anybody seen Long way Down ? Him and Charley Boorman traveling the world on their motorbikes .... such a good watch ...
I did! love it

Hey I forgot to mention Sci Fi__Science Fiction______________________
Kill Bill 1 & 2 with David Caradine with Uma Thurman reminded me of my dream to be a samurai warrior-ess. Great swordplay and masterful acting. RIP David.
Hear, hear! Huge Tarrentino fans! Like Inglourious Basterds the best, like Pulp Fiction, like KB I and II, some biker movie he did, etc.

Last scene and proposal from Pride and Prejudice with Matthew Macfadyen,... and final scene from North and South with Richard Armatige ... think I need some romance !
Yes, YvyB Matthew Macfadyen = yum, like everything he does, even Musketeers with Ray Stevenson. Of course Excalibur! But my all time fav is Gone with the Wind.

I had no idea that Tarrantino was responsible for " Inglorious Basterds ", I mentioned it in earlier post because it
is a brilliant film. Having watched it again , on cable, it was clear that this one deserve's a win. Michael
Fassbender , Diane Kruger , and a few other notables , rounded out that stellar cast.
As for " Kill Bill 2 ", the actor that portrayed Bill's ( Carradine ) brother, also starred in " Thelma and Louise ".
He was sort of a " Elvis " lookalike, and was Sarandon's beau in the movie. His reparte with Darrryl Hannah,
Know What ? I'm gonna clarify ( for the record ), that "Cult Classics" of any type are allowed here. So go ahead and mention them . If a lengthy discussion is warranted on that subject, open up an appropriate forum Topic in Television , if it happens to be a long running series.
I actually despise Tarrantino films, lots of violence without a compelling story (although I did enjoy Once Upon a Time in Mexico) and he's the guy responsible for giving the world Spy Kids and Shark Boy and Lava girl. But Inglorious Basterds is something uniquely special! Christopher Waltz possibly did the best acting of all time in that movie. OE that's a bingo!

in KB2 was pretty good too.
Michael Madsen, Virginia Madsen's brother, like them both. She is in Dune.

Does anybody here like the Blind Swordsmen movies (Zatoichi)? Jaqen and I love those, they're quietly powerful but you have to be in the mood to read subtitles so they are a rare treat.

"Pasqualino Settebellezze" ("Seven beauties") by the brilliant Lina Wertmüller. One of my all time favorites. A gem. A very young and handsome Giancarlo Gianini.

Yum ! Thankyou Macha ! Have you seen North and South ?
I'm a huge fan of the John Jakes book series, Y. I went to Boone Hall Plantation near Charlestown, where N&S was filmed. Feels like Swayze is still there, miss him.

@Andrea...one of my favorite films. That Beck song haunts my soul. "Everybody's gotta learn sometimes..."
Yes, I know... "Change your heart, will astound you...". Lovely movie, great acting, great script. I don´t know what happened with Michel Gondry these days.

Oh Lyanna that is one of the best series' I have ever seen!
Jakes also has the series that starts in France and ends in America. Starts with "The Bastard" and ends with the "Americans". Very good. Have all of them. Read them in high school. Reread many times.

"Being John Malcovich" and "adapatation" are stellar as well
Confession time: I must be the only human in existence who hated Being John Malkovich. Probably because I loathe John Malkovich. To me he's one of the most overrated actors that I have ever seen. I look at him and he always looks like he had dung for breakfast.
Yep you are Macha. You should just give up all hope now of ever being cool. ;)
Its ok. John Malkovich is overrated IMO. I just like the story and the writing. Not to mention John Cusack (the only Mance Rayder for me)

I generally dislike John Malkovich, but "Being John Malkovich" blew my head off. That said, my fave from that director is deff. "adaptation".

oh Yvy, that miniseries it´s a perfect adaptation of E. Gaskell's industrial novel. Lovely.

Ok not a film but I just started watching the "Girls" series on HBO. Fucking brillant. Its coming back to HBO in Jan for S2 and it's amazing. Fuck meth heads, fuck zombies, fuck angry gents. This show is for real. Ah, making my wait for GoT that much easier.

Yes Ry, I´m watching Girls since it began. Do you know that Lena Dunham (hannah) is the creator right? She writes and directs. Very funny.
