Saturday Night Cult Movies

CultMovie

In 2008, Channel 31 asked us to present a series of late night cult movies on Saturday Nights. We claimed we had plans on Saturdays, but they called our bluff and so we presented three seasons of cult movies, from The Lady Vanishes to Santa Claus vs the Martians. In the third season, we moved to Thursday nights but continued to call the show Saturday Night Cult Movies because we always remain true to our roots, even at the expense of confusing the audience.

Here, for the benefit of completionists only, are all 39 openings we recorded for the series. One of these intros is for our very favourite film. Can you guess which it is?
