Danny Peary Cult Movies List

	This page needs some cleaning up to be presentable. This needs to be turned into a category.

Danny Peary (born 1949) is a renowned American film critic, who published three influential books about "Cult Movies" in the early 1980s. Each book provides analytical essays about the plot and themes of all the films listed. Peary's books did a lot to attract attention to cult movies in the mainstream media and are often used as a reference guide. Many of the films he elevated to cult movie status are now considered Cult Classics.

Sadly, Peary hasn't released any newer editions since 1981.
