"The 1990s were a breakthrough decade for cult films; thanks to growing awareness of underground films, the emergence of independent films in the mainstream, and the wider popularization of VHS, strange and offbeat films were able to gain appreciation and even live a second life. Many of these films have gone on to inspire followings, but some films are just waiting for the critical rediscovery that they deserve.
Now is a better time than ever to look at 90s cult films; not only are many of the creatives with these films still involved in the industry, but the shutdown of theaters forces film fans to scan their streaming platforms for hidden gems. Although some of these films were mildly successful or acclaimed, they haven't quite risen in the consciousness of the film fan community in the way that they should."
