WHAT IS A CULT FILM?
Cult films are Obscure, Transgressive and shunned by Mainstream films. Cult films break conventional set barriers by Mainstream films, leaving behind the audience stunned. These films break the stereotypes present in the society and makes the audience refreshed. Cult films often open with poor openings and this "CULT STATUS" do not depend on box office collections.
So it's quite difficult for me to rate these films in order because it mostly depends on how much a movie can influence oneself, so I mean no disrespect and this listing is just a reference guide and nothing more! Kindly enjoy going through the list 😅
7. A Clockwork Orange (1971)
Glance
Review
This film is a drug-filled mayhem of milk plus and the old Ultraviolence, Alex lives a life where he chooses his every action with zero empathy and no repercussion whatsoever, giving in to animalistic urges just like our ancestors intended. In a world of normalcy and order in society and misfit like Alex lives life to the fullest with a little bit of help from Beethoven. The ideology was perfect and can stir any individual who feels like their life is nothing more than clockwork for the corporate world to feast upon.
Meter of Influence - 7.2/10 and a milk-plus from the Korova 🥛.
6. Fear and Loathing In Las Vegas (1998)

5. The Big Lebowski (1998)
Glance
Two goons mistake 'the Dude' Lebowski for a millionaire Lebowski and urinate on his rug. Trying to recompense his rug from the wealthy Lebowski, he gets entwined in an intricate kidnapping case.
Review
The Dude is an iconic character, it could either be your lazy uncle or a friend but there's always a DUDE in your social circle. That's what makes this film so hilariously relatable. The chill, the accent and the vibe the Dude brings to the screen is so glorified and the Coen brothers aced it when it comes to portraying the DUDE. Pot, a twisted kidnap tale and a couple of White Russians to sum it all up, what more is needed in a film.
Meter of Influence - 8/10 and a rug!

4. Monty Python and the Holy Grail (1975)
Glance
A comedic send-up of the grim circumstances of the Middle Ages as told through the story of King Arthur and framed by a modern-day murder investigation. When the mythical king of the Britons leads his knights on a quest for the Holy Grail, they face a wide array of horrors, including a persistent Black Knight, a three-headed giant, a cadre of shrubbery-challenged knights, the perilous Castle Anthrax, a killer rabbit, a house of virgins, and a handful of rude Frenchmen.
Review
"Tis but a scratch!" as the Black Knight says after his limbs got chopped off is as iconic as it is funny. This movie quite possible sums up to be the finest of British Humour. With its quirky and witty jokes, this movie really made my cheeks ache from smiling too much. The humour is not generic like the shit we get served today in contemporary films but it actually makes you use your brain and hits with a "This actually makes sense!".
Meter of Influence: The airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow/10 😉!

3. Scarface (1983)
Glance
Tony Montana and his close friend Manny, build a strong drug empire in Miami. However as his power begins to grow, so does his ego and his enemies, and his own paranoia begins to plague his empire.
Review
GTA-Vice City was the stuff of dreams back then and I'm sure most of us have heard this game and hated Demolition man, but only a few knew that Vice City was based on Scarface, the mansion, storyline and theme are quite similar. Al Pacino's finest of all time, with the greatest accent ever 😂, this film definitely struck the chords of many movie buffs like me.
Meter of Influence: 9.5/10 and a Hello to my little friend! 💥
2. Pulp Fiction (1994)
Glance
In the realm of the underworld, a series of incidents intertwines the lives of two Los Angeles mobsters, a gangster's wife, a boxer and two small-time criminals.
Review
I really need to thank humanity for this film, the intrinsic dialogue between characters, and the persona all add up to make this stand out as one of the best films of all time. All the intertwining stories are unique and equally enjoyable and every character is so freakishly influential, the movie is chaotic in a good and RIP Marvin!
Meter of Influence - 10/10 and a Royale with Cheese!
Onto #1 Best Cult Classic Movies Of All Time.
1. Fight Club (1998)
Glance
Discontented with his capitalistic lifestyle, a white-collared insomniac forms an underground fight club with Tyler, a careless soap salesman. The project soon spirals down into something sinister.
Review
There are no words to exaggerate how relatable this film is, this is not for the rich, it's for the masses, the forgettable humans of an unrecorded history. This film details out how worthless we are in the bigger picture and it won't lie or sugar coat about it. The actors did a phenomenal job, the story is outlandish, rebellious and really gets to your head. I'm gonna say it, this film is LEGIT! So much so that it influenced some idiot to plant bombs in mailboxes to chart a smiley on the map like in the film. It's chaotic and also releasing from the shackles of society at the same time. Funny, inspiring and true a masterpiece!
Meter of Influence - It just tops the charts 10/10! 👏
I believe a cult movie comes from the personality of a film-maker. From the fearless, non stereotype, unique mentality of them, comes the CULT CLASSIC MOVIES.
But to come across a movie that changes your perception and makes you wanna impersonate a character or the flair of the film out of deep reverence is what "CULT STATUS" means and this is probably the highest honour the stans can give to the filmmakers. These films are mass brain washers and influencers for good or for the worst, but they are extraordinary nonetheless. This is our 7 Best Cult Classic Movies Of All Time.
