K-pop demon hunters.
- haunter 9mo agoThat's not a sleeper hit, it became the most watched animation ever on Netflix 1 month after the release and then the most watched film ever after 2 months.
- vanviegen 9mo agoYeah, but it's a good example of a modern day 'indy' cult classic. It's a regional production that happens to do really well with global viewers.
- awithrow 9mo agoIts the opposite of a cult classic. Its hugely popular across platforms. Halloween this year was full of kids in costumes of the various characters. It a hit. A cult classic is something that finds a small but intense following over a course of years or decades.
- vanviegen 9mo agoYou right, I misused to term. What I meant to say is that it is a small production that made it big.
- forrestthewoods 9mo agoIt depends on if you’re defining sleeper hit as “unhyped movie that blew up” or exclusively “movie that initially flopped but became popular down the road”. Generally people include the former in the sleeper hit category. For the latter I’m not sure about movies. But some shows have blown up after failing on one platform then moving to Netflix.
