It was a very tough decision here because there was definitely more than just 3 film selections for me to want to choose from here also . The 3 Cult Films I voted on ( and especially because these had a very special place in my heart and IMPO felt these were very underrated too ) Somewhere in Time (1980) Carnival of Souls (1962) and of course Xanadu (1980) These also were other great films I would have chosen too ( also in order of this list here ) . Death Wish (1974) Harold and Maude (1971) Fright Night (1985) Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory (1971) Tommy (1975) The Warriors (1979) The Rocky Horror Picture Show (1975) Mommie Dearest (1981) Gremlins (1984) All the others from this extended list I have not seen . Thanks so much geode for your subject post .

So many cult films. I think Blade Runner deserved a listing on there. I chose Rocky Horror. It has a warm, cosy and cheeky vibe about it that is really the ultimate cult film. Once again, only films that had been subject to identification as the subject of a thread were eligible for inclusion in the poll. As was already pointed out D ark Star did not qualify for that reason. It would now as I started a thread for it. You can select up to three choices. Also, if enough "write in" votes are noted, a film can be included in the upcoming runoff poll.

That is why polls that compartmentalize are really redundant and not reflective or consistent with the whole.
Listing ones favorite cult film\s would be just as effective, without a poll.
Well, that is one reason I decided to make a list for the poll from movies that had threads dedicated to them, and then a second filter that limited the list to movies with threads that had attracted the most attention. If left to my subjectivity there are a number of movies listed in the poll that would not be there. Listing without a poll would not allow the result to be quantified. It would just be a hodge podge of titles.

Blow Out The Swimmer - cult film? Yes, I would definitely consider *The Swimmer" to be a cult film. It certainly has obtained that status decades ago. But I haven't heard anybody talk about it in a long time.
