Reptilicus.  When a movie compounds words like that, you know you are in for trouble.  Basically, it's Denmark's foray into the monster movie rage of the 1960s.  Just look at those...um, 'effects'.

Freddy and Jason movies are such cult classics. <3

Reptillicus you! I haven't seen that movie in forever. Earth vs. The Spider is also another 50's cult classic.

The Call of Cthulhu (2005)
Anyone who is a fan of H.P. Lovercraft's writings should know of this cult classic done in 2005, it was produced by Sean Branney and Andrew Leman and distributed by the HPLHS.

Ah the Silver Age of cinema.  When you could make movies completely cynical about the tent poles of society.  Case in point...

Steven Speilberg at his finest, before he did Jaws.

Zabriskie Point, long before it was immortalized on the cover of The Joshua Tree, it was a sign that Antonio had gone too far with an over-pretentious condemnation of consumer-centered, soul-sucking American society.  Still, it has some fantastic cinematography and compositions, and a fine overview of what you might have seen walking down a street in Los Angeles during the late 1960s.  But if this was the caliber of that generation, it's little wonder why the revolution failed.
