Cult Movies 3 is a 1988 book by Danny Peary, a follow-up to his previous books Cult Movies (1980) and Cult Movies 2 (1983). Like its predecessors, it consists of a series of essays regarding what Peary described as the most representative examples of the cult film phenomenon. The book covers fifty films that were not discussed in the first two volumes.

The films are presented in alphabetical order, with each chapter featuring a story synopsis for the covered title, Peary’s response to the film, production and release details, and a brief selection of contemporary critical reviews. [1] The book features a guest contribution by Henry Blinder, who wrote the essay on Seconds.[2]
