Rue
Morgue Magazine and MVD Entertainment to launch MIDNIGHT MOVIE
SOCIETY
MVD
ENTERTAINMENT GROUP and RUE MORGUE have
teamed up to launch the MIDNIGHT MOVIE SOCIETY, a curated
Subscription Video on Demand (SVOD) service specializing in Extreme
Underground, Taboo and Cult Horror movies. Now genre fans can gain
access to a film library of shocking underground, outrageous gore,
creature features, cult classics and much more. Those with a taste
for the weirdest and wildest reaches of genre cinema will not be
disappointed!
"The
bigger platforms are catering to the masses and have gone puritanical
in many cases, making it very difficult for filmmakers to reach their
audience," says Ed Seaman, C.O.O. of MVD ENTERTAINMENT GROUP.
"MVD has a great deal of this type of content and when it is
live on major platforms, it performs really well. Maybe too well for
some of the mainstream platforms." MIDNIGHT MOVIE SOCIETY will
also cater to more traditional horror fare as well, pulling from the
thousands of film hours from in MVD's vast catalog. In addition, RUE
MORGUE will also be finding and curating fresh and unusual content
for the service.
MIDNIGHT
MOVIE SOCIETY will be available for $4.99 per month, or $47.88 per
year subscription, and will launch on iOS, Roku and web on Friday the
13th,
September 2019.

ADVENTURES
IN THE BUDGET BIN
GONE
GIRL (2014)
David
Fincher is one of the few living directors who has yet to make a
terrible film (no, not even Alien 3). Not that we’ve
actually liked everything he’s done, but all of them – yes, even
Alien 3 – are meticulously directed, just slightly
off-center and have at-least a scene or two you’re not likely to
have seen anywhere else. Gone Girl may not be his greatest,
but it’s certainly intriguing and this set we found in a Best Buy
budget bin includes “Amazing Amy: Tattle Tale,” an illustrated
‘children’s’ book related to the film. And yes, it’s better
than Alien 3. $5.99 AT BEST BUY.
