Cult film

A cult film is a movie that gains a dedicated and passionate following over time, often outside mainstream popularity. These films typically resonate with specific subcultures or niche audiences, who may appreciate their uniqueness, humor, or style. They often inspire repeat viewings, discussions, and even rituals, fostering a sense of community among fans. Cult films can become iconic because of their memorable quotes, unconventional storytelling, or unusual characters, and their influence persists long after their initial release. Examples include movies like "The Rocky Horror Picture Show" or "Blade Runner."
