Looooove that one. I might even watch it tonight. :)

Have you read the Antonia Fraser book upon which Sofia Coppola based the book? One of my favorites...

My niece called me today, pissed cause she's missing the midnight Rocky showing tonight. LOL

My boyfriend loves this movie! He told me I HAD to watch it, so we caught it when it was on tv about a month ago. It's not exactly "great cinema," but as he said, "It's just something you HAVE to watch at least once."

...And it's on this Sunday night on ABC Family!

...And buzzfeed.com has been Hocus Pocus obsessed for the last month or two. Here ya go!

I do agree that HOCUS POCUS has become a new cult classic; would love for them to draft a sequel.

The ultimate 80's musical trifecta:

"Xanadu" (with Olivia Newton John and Gene Kelly)
"Grease 2" (with Michelle Pfiffer and Maxwell Caufield)
"The Pirate Movie" (with Kristy McNichol and Christopher Atkins)

Nothing like watching these movies on a rainy Sunday and wishing roller disco, cool riders and singing, dancing pirates would come back into vogue.

Because this is a new thread, I'm not freaked out that the newer cult classics aren't listed:

Clueless
Donnie Darko
Requiem for a Dream
Orgasmo

Does "Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's Dead" count?

Yes, those do count, and Darko and Requiem are high on my list of cult classics.

I've got a creepy story of DTMTBD, back in it's release in 91, I was projection supervisor at a movie theater; after the end of the first show one day, we had a male customer sitting in the front row; he had a bottle of sleeping pills in his hand and yes, this was a suicide attempt. We called an ambulance and he did survive but we did have to cancel the 2nd showing that day while the authorities completed their investigation.

Sometimes when my boss is driving me up the wall, I have to restrain myself from blurting out, "I'm right on top of that, Rose!"
