Cult Movies
Movies are great, but you know what makes them really great? If like, only a few people have heard of a movie and all of those people dress up as characters from the movie and then see the movie at midnight in select cities. We kid, obviously—cult movies are really fun if you're in on it. And if you're not? Well, those Rocky Horror folks aren't hurting anybody, they're just making the world sexier. Although we will say that you have not lived until you've sat in a room with someone watching The Room for the first time. So please enjoy Cracked's articles about cult movies, and maybe throw something weird on the ol' streaming service tonight:
