best cult movies viewings of 2020

The best cult movies I watched in 2020:

Roger Corman’s deliciously decadent The Fall of the House of Usher (1960)

Alain Robbe-Grillet’s strange, moody, perplexing but fascinating L’immortelle (1963)

Don Sharp's Rasputin, the Mad Monk (1966) with an extraordinary performance by Christopher Lee

Jesús Franco's Necronomicon - Geträumte Sünden (1968), the first of Franco's hallucinogenic dreamscape masterpieces

Aldo Lado's Who Saw Her Die? (1972), a brilliant Venetian nightmare giallo.

John Hough's The Legend of Hell House (1973), a superb science fiction ghost-hunting movie.

Alain Robbe-Grillet's La Belle Captive (1983), stylish erotic horror surrealism.

My most popular posts with readers have been Joe Sarno’s Bibi (1974), softcore with emotional depth as only Sarno was capable of.

Jean Rollin’s The Nude Vampire (1970), a bizarre but intriguing mix of eroticism, surrealism and science fiction.

Five Golden Dragons (1967), Christopher Lee in a fun action romp set in Hong Kong.

Steve De Jarnatt’s Cherry 2000 (1987), an 80s sci-fi movie I’m weirdly fond of. It’s a boy meets girl robot story but done in a refreshingly non-sleazy way.

The Dungeon of Harrow (1962), an interesting bad horror movie that almost works despite itself.
