The fragility of youth under guise of a cult
A very descriptive and interesting concept tackling the effects of being a vulnerable child being manipulated by a cult. While it describes how all young people are fragile and are desperate to find a place in the world, the author seems to lack somewhere, and the narrative seems slightly disjointed.

There isn't much of an explanation for the adult Evelyn and it leaves a massive hole between the young and older versions of the main character.

There is also a lack of character build up of the members of the cult, and it does not explain what happened to the Manson-like cult leader in the end. Overall, a little long for a plot with too many questions but a great idea.

1988 | Action, Comedy, Horror
Horribly produced zombie cop film with ridiculous gore and a quirky appearance by Vincent Price. Has gained a small cult status over the years.

Cult classic
Its a cult classic and has been referenced in spoofs which does mean a new watcher may recognise scenes or know the plot. The acting is very good and you get a feel for who each character is well. Hannibal is played well without he becoming an obvious lunatic.

Jane Fonda appears in this cult classic ahead of it's time, also quite raunchy for when it was made. A pure swinging 60's film.

Carpenter's wonky sci-fi thriller was hated when initially released but became a massive cult classic when people finally realized how tenuous this campy film is.

Cult classic
I can imagine this caused a huge stir in 1973. Short, simple and with a unique ending. A classic Horror film.
