Cult films have become a major part of the fabric of our everyday lives. Even casual movie fans have their favorite. Though film nerds love to “one up” each other with encyclopedic knowledge of the lesser known variety, even huge blockbusters can attain cult status when the fervor around them fails to cease with the passing years. In celebration of this phenomenon, director Danny Wolf has crafted a three-part documentary on the beloved genre titled TIME WARP: THE GREATEST CULT FILMS OF ALL TIME.
VOLUME 1: MIDNIGHT MADNESS focuses on the birth of the “midnight movie” while VOLUMES 2 and 3 tackle horror/sci-fi and comedy/camp, respectively. Hosts Joe Dante, Ileana Douglas, Kevin Pollak, and John Waters guide viewers through Wolf’s deep dive into this fascinating side of cinematic history featuring a cast that includes everyone from Pam Grier and Penelope Spheeris to Roger Corman and Rob Zombie.
