Help Barkers Midnight Meat Train
This is an actual message I received Via Myspace from Troma Founder Llloyd Kaufman. Lets help out Troma's friends and help horror return to where it needs to be
GREETINGS FROM TROMAVILLE! A very deserving film is being given the shaft, and not in the good way! I received this email from a friend, and wanted to pass it along to all you guys and gynos out there who care about the lifeblood of independent art. hearts and flowers! xoxo Uncle Lloydie ************************************************** ******************************* WE NEED TO START A VIRAL CAMPAIGN TO GET "MIDNIGHT MEAT TRAIN" A WIDER RELEASE!!! A very reliable SOURCE from Lionsgate has told me that the Lionsgate decision to "dump" Midnight Meat Train in as few screens as they are contractually required and then rush the film to DVD is based purely on INTERNAL POLITICS. The new head honcho doesn't like the old head honcho and is deliberately "dumping" all of his films out of spite and malice. But there is HOPE!? The only thing that overrides backstabbing politics in Hollywood is PURE GREED.? It is clearly not healthy for investor relations to "dump" a movie that has a vocal and dedicated audience. Midnight Meat Train represents the kind of horror film that audiences have been dying for!!! There is growing internal pressure within the company for a wider release of this film and PUBLIC FAN PRESSURE may help to push this decision over the edge. If you wish to see MIDNIGHT MEAT TRAIN in all its big screen glory at a THEATER near you, please do the following: Cut and paste the message at the bottom of this post and e-mail it to: 1) investor relations at Lionsgate: [email protected] 2) Lionsgate: [email protected] 3) call the main office at (310) 449-9200 and express your desire to see MIDNIGHT MEAT TRAIN get the release it deserves. BE POLITE AND PROFESSIONAL! We don't want to piss them off, just want them to know how many fans out there would like to shell out their hard earned cash to see the most groundbreaking horror film of the past ten years in a real movie theater! WE'VE WAITED TO LONG FOR THIS MOVIE TO LET IT GO STRAIGHT TO DVD!!! Post this message everywhere, send it to your horror friends and spread the word! We need to act FAST to have an effect!!! And LONG LIVE THE MEAT!!! ********** E-mail message (or feel free to compose your own): Dear Lionsgate, As a long time Clive Barker fan, I am writing you to express my strong desire to see "The Midnight Meat Train" on the big screen. Rumors are currently circulating that the film will only be released on a limited basis and I am very concerned that I will miss my opportunity to see the most highly anticipated Clive Barker film in over a decade in all of its big screen glory! There are millions of horror fans like myself who have been disappointed by the recent trend towards watered down PG-13 horror movies. ? Clive's work represents a return to serious, thought provoking horror movies and with Ryuhei Kitamura at the helm, I am even more excited to experience this collaboration as it was intended: in a packed theater with hundreds of other horror fans like myself! I urge you to please give this film the release it deserves! Many thanks, __________________
