Welcome! We have but one main rule, let's call it "The Comic Book Guy Rule":

Please fight the overpowering urge to downvote a movie simply because you do not like it. If the link is broken or poor quality, sure, downvote, but this is a subreddit for fans of ALL different kinds of cult movies. Use the "hide" feature on links. Give some intelligent criticism in the comment section. Just please don't downvote and make links less visible for other subscribers solely because a particular cult movie is not your bag. THANKS!

Cult Cinema is social. Part of the fun is finding others who appreciate an offbeat cinematic gem, or turning on a friend to an unusual, memorable viewing experience. A cult movie isn't defined by how much money it did or didn't make when first released, or how the critics initially treated it. Cult Cinema is about the enthusiastic audience a movie acquires over time. It's about late night screenings, dialogue that brands itself onto your brain, a ravenous taste for the unusual, and making a movie partially your own for a long time after you first saw it.

"The Twisters" (2024) - This Asylum ripoff of the "Twisters" remake is a mix of hilariously cheap tornado CGI, 80's pop star Tiffany, real life disaster footage, bad science word-salad dialogue, tornadoes that obey traffic laws, microwave space lasers, flat screens, and random Midwest city names.

"Zombie Dream" (2015) - This movie is just awful. Eric Roberts tells someone his dream and they use $14 to show it. Legit one of the worst films I have ever seen. From the zero budget, lack of script, and 'woke' zombies this thing is not worth your time, unless you are a real bad movie masochist.

"Force of Execution" (2013) - This is an odd Steven Seagal movie as he is technically not the lead or villain. He is a crime boss but the antagonist is Ving Rhames. It is mostly a vehicle for Seagal's pet project, Australian martial artist Bren Foster. Though Seagal hogs a lot of the screen time.

A Beginner's Guide to Body Horror Film

Body horror is a unique subgenre of horror films that push the limits of physical and psychological discomfort by focusing on the human body’s transformation, mutilation or invasion. What makes body horror particularly compelling is its ability to blur the boundaries between the human and the grotesque.

History and Early Development

The fascination with body horror first began in early horror literature, where themes of grotesque transformation and monstrosity began to stir. Groundbreaking works like Mary Shelley’s “Frankenstein” (1818) and Robert Louis Stevenson’s “The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde” (1886) sparked this unsettling exploration of the human body altered by science and the unknown. These stories, along with their early film adaptations, served as the blueprint for what would later evolve into the body horror genre, with their subtle yet unnerving reflections on the fragility of human form. While early films were often more suggestive than explicit, they laid the foundation for what would become a far more graphic and visceral cinematic exploration of bodily mutation and its terrifying consequences.

As cinema developed, body horror began to take shape as a distinct subgenre in the 1950s and 1960s. One of the early influences from this period was “The Fly” (1958), in which a scientist’s experiment with teleportation technology goes horrifically wrong, transforming him into a grotesque hybrid of man and insect. This film tackled a key body horror theme: the dangers of scientific overreach and the grotesque mutation of the human body, vividly representing the terror of losing one’s humanity.

Can Somebody ELI5 who killed who in Bava's "Five Dolls For An August Moon"? [spoilers encouraged]

Either this movie never explains most of the mystery or I'm having a stroke.

  • Who moved the houseboy Charles' body? First it's discovered on the boat, then it's on the beach and discovered a second time.
  • How did the sleeping guests disappear and reappear when the boat crew drops by?
  • What exactly is Isabel even doing there?
  • Who killed who? There had to be more than one murderer, right?
  • What the hell was anybody's motive in all this? Sure they're after the professor's formula, but the houseboy had nothing to do with that.

I do read reviews of this movie that likewise say the plot makes no sense intentionally. Mario Bava got shackled to this film at the last minute without a chance for a rewrite, etc. But, like, I must be missing something.
