Certainly not a cult director? While Cronenberg may be one of the more widely know directors deemed "cult", he is still most definitely a cult director (even with the inclusion of A History of...

Cronenbergs early films were certainly "cult" films. Scanners and Videodrome are basically listed under "cult film" in the dictionary. With his last two films he has proven to be more accessible and...

Since when is Solyaris a cult film, and Tarkovsky a cult director?

It's not my opinion, it's a fact. The first 45 minutes were a visual poem. Get an attention span.
