My favorite:

The Last Days of Planet Earth.

Its a cheezy Japanese end of the world, hippies go crazy, flick.

I've seen the term "cult movie" defined as a movie that fans see over and over again. If this is so, then my favorite cult movie would be The Girl Can't Help It (1956) starring tom Ewell, Edmund O'Brien, and Jayne Mansfield. I've seen it at least nine times in the theater, several times on television, and own the video.

Movies that I see over and over again tend to be musicals, such as Gold Diggers of 1933, Hollywood Review of 1929, The Big Broadcast (1932) and Pigskin Parade (1936), which was Judy Garland's greatest film.

By the way, I saw It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World at the Cinerama Theater in Hollywood in early 1964, and I remember really enjoying it.

"Mickey One", an early film with Warren Beatty. Tense, paranoid.

And a movie that burned a hole in my brain, "Invaders from Mars", 1953 version

Designed and directed by William Cameron Menzies (one of the greatest production designers of Hollywood's golden age, whose credits include Gone with the Wind), this eerie little thriller benefits from Menzies's skill at combining physical settings with psychological undercurrents of paranoid terror and resistance against the alien threat. It's still most effective for younger viewers, with Jimmy Hunt providing the story's youthful point of view. And although the malevolent aliens look campy now, with a leader who resembles a bubble-brained squid in a fishbowl, Invaders from Mars remains one of the seminal science fiction films of its time, paving the way for The War of the Worlds and the rapidly developing trend of alien-invasion thrillers. --Jeff Shannon
