90's Cult Flicks
Possibly the most 90's films ever, that age like your grandparents; they're unhealthy, racist and do not make any sense at all, but you still love em. Side Note: movies picked based on how much of a relic they are, not the quality (I liked the initial description but the morality of some of these are perfectly fine)

- DirectorAllan MoyleStarsAnthony LaPagliaDebi MazarMaxwell CaulfieldTwenty-four hours in the lives of the young employees at Empire Records when they all grow up and become young adults thanks to each other and the manager. They all face the store joining a chain store with strict rules.
- DirectorIain SoftleyStarsJonny Lee MillerAngelina JolieJesse BradfordTeenage hackers discover a criminal conspiracy with plans to use a computer virus that will capsize five oil tankers.One of my all time favorite movies and quite possibly the most 90's film ever made, Hackers is a mistunderstood masterpiece of 90's culture. Starring a pool of decade favorites with a soundtrack of the best dance music you will ever come across, Hackers is a hell of a ride. The NY visuals, the mumbo jumbo tech dialogue and the fucking swimsuit as normal day wear makes this a definitive 1990's movie.
- DirectorPaul W.S. AndersonStarsChristopher LambertRobin ShouLinden AshbyThree unknowing martial artists are summoned to a mysterious island to compete in a tournament whose outcome will decide the fate of the world.The most definitive game-to-movie adaptation, MK captures the bat shit craziness of the violent video game and provides classic over-acting from actors who you never saw again. The plastic CGI and the house inspired soundtrack blends perfectly into this over the top 90's blockbuster.

- DirectorRichard LinklaterStarsJason LondonWiley WigginsMatthew McConaugheyThe adventures of high school and junior high students on the last day of school in May 1976.I put this film in mainly due to the cast and cultural impact it had on films in the 90s. It stars an array of 90s favourite such as Joey Lauren Adams (Big Daddy, Chasing Amy), Rory Cochrane (Empire Records, Love and a 45), Parker Posey (Party Girl, House of Yes) and millions of others. It also was the start of 90's cult films, as the picture did well to amass an audience on home video.
