Has anyone mentioned Boondock Saints yet?

And don't forget "A Dirty Shame."

LOL

well, like jb814, i always got him confused with the DJ. whoops!

Did I mention Spinal Tap?

Hey Thagomizer, great choice of films you made on your list, the Evil Dead films are a classic. I have the computer game of City Of Lost Children "Worst Video Game Ever" as Comic Book Guy would say.

Mystery Scienece Theater 3000, what a film and a series too. I just saw This Island Earth (The film they take the mickey out of) on Sky Cinema here in the UK.

I've always wanted to see Fritz The Cat, I saw clips of it on and a documentary about animation history and on The Top 100 Cartoons (reached 56) thought it looked... Interesting, I know its an X rated cartoon but I loved to see it but they never show it on TV anymore or is sequel either.

My two favourite cult movies are Top Secret! and Kung Pow: Enter The Fist

Fritz the Cat was a cartoon character creatd by Robert Crumb, and he hated the movie which was made against his wishes.

By tom

I read up about that, Crumb thought the idea was stupid and he thought it didn't relate to the comic book version of Fritz. The sequel "The Nine Lives Of Fritz The Cat" is set after the final comic book when Fritz is shot by his wife but returns after losing one of his lives, Crumb didn't get invovled in that either. Their seems to be a bit of a racial thing in the film, on the clips that I saw on TV all the African-Americans are represented as crows. At least they got one think right and the cops were represented as pigs. Isn't it set in a period of the 60's and not the 70's.

Fritz the cat was brilliant, it is gritty and entertaining. Spinal tap is funny too. Ive got the soundrack for it.

He's in Mystery Men too

What about the Pink Panther movies?

Haha! Ed Wood is the funniest Tim Burton movie on the planet!! ! (I got Plan 9 on DVD) That is quite true about Glen or Glenda. I hate the fact that they took MST3K off the air on Sci-Fi The movie is so hard to find!
