Cult Film
Every movie in this book is a gem that every discerning film buff should know about. Although a few might be familiar – “Barbarella”, “Un Chien Andalou”, “The Blues Brothers” – most will be unfamiliar, and all will boast a small but devoted fanbase. So, just what makes a cult movie? Typically, these movies are independently made on a small budget and were never expected by their creators to attract a broad audience: the eccentricity of the film making or story telling, the controversial stance taken, or the narrow appeal of the subject matter guaranteed that their appeal was limited. Some movies achieve cult status long after their release. Neither commercially nor critically successful at the time, these movies were too revolutionary, fashionable, or simply badly made to find an appreciative audience. Movies, such as “Harold and Maude” and “Plan 9 From Outer Space”, languished unnoticed until a small, devoted group from a later generation discovered them and declared them cool. A few movies, such as “The Rocky Horror Picture Show”, originally attracted cult status, even though they were made by a major studio, owing to their dark, controversial, or offbeat subject matter.As tastes changed and tolerance increased, these films went on to appeal to a much wider audience and to gain commercial success without ever losing their cult status. With insight from critics, film historians, and academics from around the world, “101 Cult Movies You Must See Before You Die” is a homage to a century filled with 50-foot women, alcohol-fueled binges, surreal imaginary friends, flying pink elephants, and improbably large arachnids.

Why oh why did it take someone so long to come up with such a startlingly good idea?! These fabulous Fire Pits are the answer to all our prayers (well possibly not the one about winning the lottery and living a life of idle bliss). Made from a mixture of spun iron and stainless steel – making them durable and long lasting – they allow you to have the warmth and atmosphere of an open fire anywhere (within reason; setting this up indoors would be an unsurprisingly bad idea). The three sturdy legs have adjustable ball feet for steady positioning on uneven ground and two fold down handles make it a cinch to move around. Simply sit it on your patio deck or lawn (especially if you’re precious about your grass) and you’ve got an instant fireplace. It comes with an internal grill so you can use it for a bit of occasional cooking if you’re feeling peckish and it also has a mesh hood if you’re worried about errant sparks damaging your deck. You can use wood or coal toast marsh mallows at will and if the mood takes you (and you hate your neighbours) burst into ‘home on the range’ medleys with an out of tune guitar – summer evenings just got warmer and brighter. Domed mesh cover. Spun iron base and stainless steel legs. Adjustable ball feet. Folding handles. Size: 77cm diameter x 44cm
