Canuxploitation is the primary keyword when talking about Canadian Cult films, and much like any other exploitation genre, Canuxploitation covers all sorts of different genres.

Canada has definitely produced some rather strange cult movies, whether they’re films from body horror master David Cronenberg or bizarre kids films, Canada surely has something for every cult movie fan.

So here are 20 Canadian Cult movies that are worth checking out. (Keep in mind that movies like Black Christmas, Porky’s, Scanners, and My Bloody Valentine are not going to be on this list due to their massive popularity)
