I think this could be interesting…remember its exploitation or cult so lets not get hung up on arguments about what qualifies as exploitation 
heres mine in order of year:THE HITCH HIKER(1953) Carnival of souls(1962)FASTER PUSSYCAT KILL…(1965)THE 10th VICTIM(1965)DANGER DIABOLIK(1968)POINT BLANK(1967)GET CARTER(1971)LONE WOLF AND CUB:BABYCART AT RIVER STYX(1972)LADY SNOWBLOOD(1973)FEMALE YAKUZA(1973)ZERO WOMAN:RED HANDCUFFS(1973)COFFY(1973)DEATHWISH(1974)THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE(1974)SUSPIRIA(1977)THE MAGNIFICENT BUTCHER(1979)ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK(1981)LONE WOLF MCQUADE(1983)NIGHT OF THE COMET(1984)FIGHT CLUB(1999)GHOST DOG(1999)KILL BILL(2003)SIN CITY(2005).
At first we need a similar definition of cult films…
Well here is my simple definitions …exploitation-a cheaply made movie with shocking content(violence,sex,themes…)etc. cult-a movie with a small but devoted following, films that dont appeal to the masses.
Reckon this should be prefaced where I stuck the * with … ‘which started’. They start small - but can end up massive. ‘Withnail and I’ is classed as a cult film but ended up winning zillions of fans and accolades. Sometimes they can end up appealing to the masses. Maybe your ‘don’t’ should be replaced with … ‘didn’t start by trying’ … (‘course tho’ - some started small - ended small).
Maybe? (edit… sounds confusing? you should’ve been in the pub a coupla hours ago!)
sure…i never argue with a man of the cloth especially when he’s tipsy.

“Cult” is too broad, but exploitation/grindhouse is interesting. The Grindhouse Database has a couple of Top 20 lists which are pretty good:
http://www.grindhousedatabase.com/index.php/The_Deuce_Top_20
That includes Tarantino’s list, which is decent.
My own Top 20 would be a variation on these.
