Even though nobdoy has replied to this post I just thought I'd update it and say that Russ Meyer is now fully covered on the site and there are 3 Walerian Borowczyk added:

Contes Immoraux (Immoral Tales, 1974)
Dzieje Grzechu (Story of a Sin, 1975)
La Bete (The Beast, 1975)

They've also added Murder in a Blue World (Eloy de la Iglesia, 1973) aka Clockwork Orange (no not the Kubrick film)

well i'm not too sure what to class as cult but i will add a few that i believe are cult...funnyman,into the mirror,and dark city...let me know if i'm wrong cus i have no idea if they're classed as cult or just weird...lol...

Well I've used the word "cult" loosely because it can mean different things to different people but I'm looking to add films that are generally not considered mainstream. So I'm looking at genres like Blaxploitation, Sexploitation, Giallo, Italian Crime films, Art-house/foreign language, Spaghetti Westerns etc. Of course examples of these genres have reached mainstream audiences but most are seen by a small number of people or are generally ignored by the mainstream press. I have a fondess for 1970s cinema which was probably a peak period for weird and wonderful films, the likes of which will probably never be seen again.

Buffalo 66 is what I'd class as the ultimate Cult film, its by Vincent Gallo with Christina Ricci and its hell fringe cinema at it fringest! Plus heaps of ppl like it without it become overly popular ...like Donnie Darko thats not cult anymore cause basically everyone's seen and loves that now...

Plus thats awsome cause im sick of just seeing Cheaper by the dozen and its many evil sequels on flickster! Thanks man!

That's my aim - to increase the exposure on "non-mainstream" films.

Lots of choice films, Got a lot of catching up to do.

Metropolis -They made an animie remake recently but not nearly as dark and sinister.

Faster Pussycat.

The "Ultimate" cult film which is also pretty mainstream is The Rocky Horror Picture Show, it really is the mother of all cult films. Little or no plot, interesting characters, no predictability. HAZA! The movie was a flop but is cult beyond belief, go see it in a small theater, dress up, and bring the classic things. Water gun, newspaper, confetti, the works! But if I had to CHOOSE a favourite cult film, I'd best say Repo-Man. Man Emilio is the shit... Well I enjoy cult films thoroughly. If you have any exotic (I don't really mean EXOTIC) cult films you'd like to share, I'd appreciate it.

my favorite is to wong foo thanks for everything love julie newmar!
