Celebrate Cult Classics.

Movies that have an extensive, enthusiastic fan base regardless of how they performed at the theater make up the genre cult favorites. Audience participation, quoted dialog and repeated viewings are all marks of true cult classics like these.

Turn a showing of a cult classic into an easy event with one of these ideas.

  • Host a back-to-school BBQ and toga costume contest in conjunction with your showing of "Animal House" to welcome everyone back to campus.
  • Host a zombie 5k fun run before your showing of "Shaun of the Dead" to raise awareness of your movie showing and encourage fitness on campus.
  • Liven up a showing of "Fight Club" with a boxing class before the film. Bring a local gym for a “how-to” class for students to learn the basics.
