5 Cult Films You Absolutely Need to Watch

Some movies don’t just entertain — they haunt, inspire, and stick with you long after the credits roll. Cult films have a unique magic: they may have flopped at the box office, baffled critics, or flown under the radar, but they gather passionate fanbases that last for decades.

At Supernova Heights Memorabilia, we celebrate the films, music, and culture that make collecting fun — and cult cinema is no exception. Here are five cult films you should definitely check out:


1. Labyrinth (1986)

A fantastical cult classic that continues to enchant audiences of all ages. With its mesmerising puppetry, unforgettable characters like Jareth the Goblin King, and catchy songs, Labyrinth has inspired generations of fans. If you haven’t attempted to navigate its maze or belted out “Magic Dance” with friends, you haven’t truly experienced the magic of cult cinema.


2. Fight Club (1999)

David Fincher’s Fight Club is more than just a movie — it’s a philosophy for some. With its twist ending, dark humour, and biting social commentary, it’s a film that sparks debate and discussion decades after its release. Bonus points for memorising Tyler Durden’s rules.


3. Donnie Darko (2001)

Mind-bending, surreal, and melancholic, Donnie Darko didn’t find its audience immediately but became a must-watch for fans of sci-fi and psychological drama. Time travel, giant rabbits, and teen angst collide in this endlessly fascinating film.


4. Withnail & I (1987)

A British cult comedy that’s equal parts hilarious and tragic. Following two out-of-work actors in the 1960s, Withnail & I is quotable, quotably dark, and perfectly encapsulates the chaos of friendship and misadventure. A must-watch for anyone who loves witty dialogue and offbeat humour.


5. The Big Lebowski (1998)

The Coen Brothers delivered a film that confounds, entertains, and inspires endless fandom. With “The Dude,” bowling, and a plot that somehow makes sense in its own bizarre way, The Big Lebowski has become the ultimate cult favourite. Just remember: the rug really does tie the room together.


🎥 Why We Love Cult Films

Cult films often push boundaries, explore oddball ideas, and create communities of fans who celebrate the weird and wonderful. They inspire midnight screenings, fancy dress, fan theories, and, of course, collectible memorabilia.

We love helping fans own a piece of film history — from original posters to vinyl soundtracks and rare DVDs. Cult films are more than entertainment; they’re a lifestyle.
