Greatest Cult Film That No One Has Ever Seen?

[Joe the Destroyer]

Here's where I got my uncut (except that biker! ) copy of NIGHT OF THE DEMON:

SHOCKING VIDEOS! is one of the best resources for obscure titles I've seen, and check out those genre categories like "AMERICAN TRASH" "NUNSPLOITATION" "AUSSIE TRASH" and "PEPLUMANIA"( ).

It can take quite a while to get your order, but the guy who runs the site explains why in very clear and easy to understand language on the "ABOUT US" page. 
     

Thanks for the link!  I may have to waste some money come next payday!

Yeah, Shocking Videos is a great website because the man really does put his heart into all of his dupes. The descriptions are sometimes better than the actual movies themselves and the DVD box art and the quality of the discs is very well done. My first order took about 2 weeks to get, while it's been about 2 weeks since my last order and I'm still waiting. Oh well, I'm in no rush...

That would be THE DAY THE CLOWN CRIED.

From what I can tell not a single print of this has yet to escape the dark recesses of Jerry Lewis' vault. I wonder if it still even exists.

You used to be able to buy copies of the screenplay on e-bay. Maybe you still can.

even in germany, it's hard to believe someone thought that would be a reasonable  idea for a movie.

Hey, for instance there is the last butterfly http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0100393/ , a really well executed movie with a mime in a concentration camp. The nwe have Roberto Benigni and Robin Williams in Concentration Camps and then finally we got Train of Life http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0170705/, which is amaziing. Humour is perhaps the only way to cope with the unimaginable and the progression of a selfish Person could be an interesting topic, especially if the motives   are unclear  to the audience.

I think the greatest Cult film not many people have seen is Probably 1983's Doctor Detroit starring Dan Aykroyd. The Plot is: Clifford Skridlow teaches at a small Chicago college run by his father. Conned into managing four prostitutes by their pimp, who skips town to escape the mob boss known as Mom, Clifford draws on his course in medieval literature in his quest to save the women from Mom. The greatest thing about the movie (in my opinion) is the DEVO song for the movie named Doctor Detroit.

I LOVE Dr. Detroit!... no, I'm serious... there's no punchline to that statement, I really do like Dr. Detroit...

I remember a Joel episode of MST3K where, during a car chase scene, they do an impromptu promo for the movie touting it's soundtrack that includes tracks by Devo and Cutting Crew... heh heh.

I must have seen DR DETROIT a half dozen times or more when I was in the Navy.  My favorite part is when he quotes Shakespeare's HENRY V as the hookers get him dressed up in his Dr. Detroit costume for his confrontation with "Mom".  I  hated that they never made the promised sequel!

[Amontillado]

All this talk of Dr. Detroit  ( by the way) made me think of two other movies not a lot of people seem to know about. Both starring Walter Matthau and a well known actor/comedian. The first is another Dan Aykroyd movie called The Couch Trip. It usually gets panned, but I think its hilarious. "I hope this place has cable, I can't take terrestrial TV without drugs?" The other one was The Survivors with Matthau and Robin Williams. That one was really funny. The plot wears a bit thin, but its got plenty of laughs with both physical comedy and dialogue. A really overlooked gem. Matthau's got a great line in that one too when he asks and obviously Indian woman: "Do you treat everybody like cows?....Oh...well...I guess you don't then..." I also liked the fact that the psychos in both movies share my name.

[AnubisVonMojo]

The Couch Trip is one of those movies I came into late, so I've never seen the whole thing. If it's got Dan Akroyd in it, I'm obligated to give it a chance, so maybe I'll try to hunt it down and finally see it in all of it's skeleton clown endorsed glory.
