To me, that means it is not receiving the respect it deserves. The most probable cause is the content; it is too "icky" and "graphic" and "horrifying" for your run of the mill mouthbreathers.

It is a cult classic, however, it is also regarded by the film industry as one of the best movies.

Even IMDB users seem to agree by placing it in the top 50: http://www.imdb.com/chart/top
