Cult sci-fi movies

I came a little late to this thread, but I have a couple of entries that haven’t been mentioned yet, that are my all-time faves:

1. Phantom of the Paradise..early DePalma movie shot here in Dallas, with Paul Williams and Gerrit Graham, and features the lovely Jessica whatsername from Suspiria..

2. Logans Run, also shot here in Dallas, with Micheal York, etc. both of these are personal faves especially since I had extra parts in both productions that actually made it to the screen, for which I was thankful.

3. From Beyond, with Jeffrey Combs,and Barbara Crampton. Hey anthing that Stuart Gordon and Brian Yuzna do is ok in my book..
And the last scene where Barbara goes from hysterical crying to hysterical laughter should have gotten her an academy award.

4. Wicked City (live action version) Very over the top, even for Hong Kong flicks.

5. Heroic Trio, Michelle Yeoh, Maggie Cheung, and Anita Mui, and the inimitable Anthony Wong type-cast again as the raving maniac.

6. Kronos….early sci-fi from out of the blue, (not the vampire remake) killer sfx for it’s time, about an energy drainer from outer space..

7. Pinocchio 964, Japanese cyberpunk flick, must be seen to be explained fully, like Tetsuo Body Hammer.

8. Dunwich Horror, with Dean Stockwell and Sandra Dee. (she’ll NEVER live down this movie) and Dean was a bad mamma-jamma, too.

9.Phantasm (1 only) Absolutely scared the living crap out of me, when I first saw it.

10. Videodrome, (I think someone did actually mention this one) James Woods and Debra Harry were astounding in this early cypberpunk flick. And the subject matter must have been tough to do, for the times.

I’m sure there are more faves out there, but it’s still early, I may come up with more later… [img]images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif[/img] [img]images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif[/img]
