Well, considering it was originally made as a low-budget film (the classic definition of a 'B' movie)

In days of old the studios classified their films as either "A" or "B" films. The "A" films got the top actors, the full court press publicity and wide distribution, while the "B" films enjoyed limited release and little-known (or has-been) actors. Word of mouth and good publicity propel "B" films to major motion picture status, eventually earning cult-film status.
