  20. Well, I certainly don't feel qualified to try to define "cult
  21. movie" in front of this crowd, but I would surely think that the
  22. Blatty flick would qualify.  It wasn't incredibly popular,
  23. box-officewise, was fairly popular among critics, and damn
  24. hard to dope out on one viewing.  It's really an
  25. interesting film that doesn't get talked about much, but
  26. look it up for something different.
