How Can A Cult Movie Be Overrated?


If this movie was greatly hated, people would say, "it's underrated". But because it is greatly admired, people say, "its overrated".

HOW CAN A CULT MOVIE BE OVERRATED?!

The mere fact that it is a cult movie means it wasn't accepted by the masses.
But because over time it has built a decent following, here come the young haters. Young people seem to hate everything that isn't new and respected.

Can't really blame
them...creativity is dead which explains all the lousy remakes of movies from the eighties! I mean really?! Kids these days are spoon fed so much garbage they wouldn't know a great flick if it walked up to them and knocked their "smart" phone out of their hands!

I dont see the point in blaming young people. If anything i see just as much old people blaming this. What is it? The older we get, the more we feel the need to bash youngsters? This is a cult movie. So that means people of all ages love this film. The video game based on the film also brought alot of new found fans.
