Shudder has announced in a year-end press release today that 2019 was their biggest year to date, with subscribers watching, reviewing and talking about their content in record numbers. And that’s hardly a surprise, as 2019 saw the launch of Shudder’s original series “Creepshow,” while the service also landed some pretty massive new movie premieres this past year.
The most watched movie premieres of 2019? Based on minutes streamed in their first week on Shudder, Haunt, Nightmare Cinema, Hell House LLC: Lake of Fire, Body Bags and Belzebuth top that particular list. The most watched *series* premieres were “Creepshow,” “The Last Drive-In,” “A Discovery of Witches,” “NOS4A2” and “Channel Zero: The Dream Door.”
With scores plucked from Rotten Tomatoes, the best reviewed Shudder films of 2019 include One Cut of the Dead, Horror Noire, Tigers Are Not Afraid and Beast, with Bloody Disgusting’s own Hagazussa coming in at #4 on that list. The film is the newest addition to the BD film library, and the second title we’ve put out with Music Box’s Doppelgänger Releasing.
