IMO the banning etc is what gives a lot of these films the status.. for eg if a film got released uncut no matter how bad it was and put on the shelfs with no publicity chances r half of them wouldnt rent or sell.....a couple of the films being mentioned i havent seen.. but when i saw mbts it didnt bother me .. just the fact it happend did.. i got the other 3 completely uncut but havent watched them yet....surprise no 1 mentioned nekromantik....I think it that 1 where he kills a cat and has a bath in its blood and she digs up her bfriend dead body and has sex with it ....that films has a grim feeling to it .....but lets be honest there a lot of films out there that have there cult status, but beyond utter pants...i think some are so bad there embaressing to watch...i watch tobe hoopers death trap other night and thought that went in the so bad its embaressing pile....but there even worse films out there... i watch a lot of films because of some of these catagories....but lets be honest if most films where released uncut and easily available you just wouldnt bother with half of them
