This has been going around the blogosphere. Saw it here from a link at APCB. Since I like movies, a lot, I'll bore you with my experiences with these cult movies. Bold items are the ones I have seen.

1 This Is Spinal Tap: Funny, funny movie. As many great quotes as any. "This goes to 11."

3 Freaks: Alex Winters. 'Nuff said.
4 Harold And Maude
5 Pink Flamingos: John Waters is a local legend in Baltimore. Grossest scene ever. I could take it or leave it.
6 The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: Scares me too much.
7 Repo Man: The movie soundtrack was all the rave when I was a youn punk. "You find one in every car."
8 Scarface: Going to the U at the tail end of the 80s. This was a classic to watch.
