A favorite of mine. One of the greatest low-budget sf/horror movies ever. Wiki says it was a “modest hit,” but I remember it being described as a bomb.

[quote=“Sparky812, post:7933, topic:549173”]

Well known/well liked movies that bombed at the box office.

1. _Ed Wood_
2. _Office Space_
3. _Death to Smoochy_
4. _The Big Lebowski_
5. _The Rocky Horror Picture Show_
6. _Hudson Hawk_
7. _The Hidden_
8. _Dogma_
9. _The Cotton Club_
10. _Highlander_
11. _Eddie and the Cruisers_

The first movie to find its audience on home video, where it did well enough to justify a (bad) sequel.

Ultimately made money of course, but tanked in its initial release largely due to interference from Hearst.  
I did this one so right to choose next category goes to first taker.
