Many things are called cults... and typically the answers would vary greatly as to whether one in particular is good or not.

Here is "cult" from dictionary.com:

a. A religion or religious sect generally considered to be extremist or false, with its followers often living in an unconventional manner under the guidance of an authoritarian, charismatic leader.

b. The followers of such a religion or sect.

2.
A system or community of religious worship and ritual.

3.
The formal means of expressing religious reverence; religious ceremony and ritual.

4.

5.
a. Obsessive, especially faddish, devotion to or veneration for a person, principle, or thing.

b. The object of such devotion.

6.
