Cult Movies of 2012

1/13/2013

39 Comments

 
With 2012 now come to a close and the awards season in full gear, audiences and critics alike are concentrating on current Oscar contenders and end-of-year releases. People tend to forget the smaller, more genre-driven, releases of the summer or spring. Even though, it is mostly these films that end up being the more memorable in the long run. For example, which film do you remember seeing more recently: 300 or The Queen? Anchorman or Finding Neverland?

These are all recent examples of cult films. Here, I try to list the films of 2012, which , in a few years, might achieve cult movie status.
Picture
The Cabin in the Woods

A film which delighted horror fans and puzzled the non-movie geek, Drew Goddard's meta exploration of horror tropes and cliches probably won't feature in any Oscar nominations. It will, however, be remembered for its unique premise and insightful characters.



Cult-worthy scenes:
1. Making out with the “moose”
2. The insane 3rd act massacre

Instant Classic Quotes:
“Ok, I'm drawing a line in the fucking sand. Do NOT read the Latin! “
“Tequila is my lady!!”

Picture
Looper

Rian Johnson's script might not have gotten the same critical acclaim as Tony Kushner's Lincoln screenplay, but it definitely sparked more forum discussions on the internet. Looper's take on time travel is both unique and respectful to previous sci-fi films.



Cult-worthy scenes:
1. The diner confrontation
2. Old Seth's execution

Instant Classic Quotes:
“This time travel crap, just fries your brain like an egg...“
“I'm from the future. You should go to China.”

Picture
Dredd

The Judge Dredd reboot failed to impress at the box office this year, but interest in the comic books plus the over the top violence and quotable main character might be enough to ensure this film's passage into the cult movie realm.



Cult-worthy scenes:
1. Every slow-motion scene

Instant Classic Quotes:
“I am the law!”

Other possible contenders:
21 Jump Street
The Raid
God Bless America

I saw all the three movies and I am somewhat more inclined towards the Looper. According to me, it is a good movie and I liked it a lot. Maybe, its not Oscar material, but still the movie deserves a thumps up.

An interesting discussion is worth comment. I think that you need to write more on this matter, it may not be a taboo subject but usually individuals are not enough to speak on such topics. To the next.
