One of the best written films I have ever watched. The dialogue romps along, as does the action and the violence. As a rule I don't like violent films but Tarantino's violence is OTT rather than psychological so it becomes almost comical. This film is a cult classic and deserves this kudos.

Ari Aster is one of my new fave filmmakers. Midsommar is like the original Wicker Man on steroids - and mushrooms. This film has stayed with me longer than I expected, it's everything right about 'cult' horror films.

It's epic and awesome. The director's cut is even better. I highly recommend.

Much better than most of the Friday the 13th films
Slasher fan heaven
A pretty cool hack'n'slash film. Almost tongue in cheek at times, it could almost be a spoof of both series of films. The effects are cool and there is plenty of blood for gore fans. Nice to see a recent film starring these two cult film characters giving the fans what they like.

Rather daft plot (1 more)
Low budget vibe
Oddball Comedy Horror
A group of friends go to a Horror park that's made up of areas from cult Horror films but soon find out they are in their own horror film.
There's a couple of familiar faces in this and while the idea was OK it could have been done a lot better. Not much comedy in it either to be. I've seen better Horror park theme films recently.

"""Two great milestones for Lynch: his debut masterpiece and his most recent masterpiece. Eraserhead is the truest representation of a dream (or nightmare) I’ve ever seen put to film. Lynch’s debut was one of the ultimate midnight cult films of its time, and the Criterion package also includes all of his early short films. Mulholland Dr. is Lynch at his best, combining Blue Velvet and Twin Peaks into a hypnotic mystery that only gets better (and makes sense) with multiple viewings."""

One of the quintessential cult films since the term was invented, The Princess Bride is a movie that everyone seems to love. The characters are memorable, the dialog is snappy and funny and the movie just gets better every time that one watches it.

This film started my love affair with the wonderful Robin Williams and his loss feels raw even today.

Mrs Doubtfire has become something of a cult classic over the years and its impressive script means it still remains relatable today – and just as hilarious.

Chris Columbus, who later went on to direct the first two Harry Potter films crafted a near-perfect adaptation of Anne Fine’s Madame Doubtfire. Most people don’t realise the film is based on a novel, and I have to admit, I only discovered this a few years ago.

Even decades after its theatrical release, Mrs Doubtfire proves films can still throw up a few surprises if you look deep enough.

"I love that Criterion not only focuses on the classic work of the Fellinis, the Bergmans and the Kurosawas of film history but also gives attention to controversial, camp, and cult films like Salò, Head, Beyond the Valley of the Dolls, and Pink Flamingos. And none is more strangely perfect than House. One of the most beautifully strange and original films I’ve ever seen. Almost like a psychedelic, live-action Japanese version of an episode of Teletubbies, H.R. Pufnstuf, or Scooby-Doo. The fact that both this and Eraserhead came out in the same year leads me to believe there were some really good drugs floating around in 1977."
