One thing I had to learn quickly was that my preference towards anything cultural was not in line with what my peers found good/cool, so I strode down the road of enjoying what I enjoy and let others enjoy whatever they enjoy.

Here's a short list:

Roadhouse

The 13th Warrior

Both Ewoks movies

Roadhouse is a classic! I don't think it counts here.

I very much liked 13th warrior, just watched it again last week! It's on YouTube free with ads right now

It may be considered as such today but it panned as not worthy of the time for many years.

The 13th Warrior was another of those movies that got thrown into the grinder by critics and cinephiles for being not worth the effort just to develop a cult following in response.

Which remebers me of another panned movie: Pathfinder

And while we're at it, let's add both Dredd movies (the second is the best) and the Demolition Man.
