Agree with you on some degree on this PN.
Just seems to me that cult has
become mainstream thanks to the hollywood money-making remake conveyor belt.
When cult slashers, foreign (particularly French and Asian offerings) are getting the gilded remake treatment, and you can almost guarantee that anything remotely original and fresh that isn't US produced in some way will get a remake; and within increasingly shorter timescales (e.g REC vs. Quarantine) - is cult now becoming mainstream??
