Catch the Midnight Meat Train for Cheap

July 31st, 2008 in Writers, horror

MidnightMeatTrain-1 Proving that the suits always make bad decisions, Shock reports that Midnight Meat Train is getting a limited theatrical release… in fact, a very limited one. It will be available in bargain theaters across the country. This means that you can catch this well-received film at venues where ticket prices are only one to two dollars.

Ryuhei Kitamura’s adaptation of the classic Clive Barker short story has met with much antagonism from the suits at Lionsgate, who offered a limited release to fulfill its deal with production company Lakeshore. Following petitions, including one with support from the author himself, the suits went for a meeting with Barket which “did not go well.”

Catch the movie if you can. Read the story – it’s awesome. If you can’t watch the movie, then wait for the DVD release. There’s nothing much we can do at this point.

    Wow, how disappointing it is to hear this! I have been anticipating this for some time now and I might have to watch it on TV? I mean, home theaters are great these days but they’re not the Big Screen experience you get at a theater. (I love watching disturbing films with strangers to see their reactions. Sometimes their dread invades my space and infects me with an amped up feeling of doom and dispair… What could be more fun, right?)

    Oh, well! Once again, THANKS FOR NOTHING STUDIO SH*TS! Here’s hoping you have to take the midnight meat train home.
    If you do, something tells me that it “will not go well.”
