Bloody Disgusting and Cinedigm Launching Free Horror Streaming Channel on The Roku Channel!
Horror is more than just movies to many of us hardcore fans. It’s a lifestyle. Bloody Disgusting has always been a celebration of all things horror – we live and breathe it; we not only watch the movies, but we wear the clothing, eat the horror-themed cereals, buy the toys, devote our bodies in the form of tattoos, and even name our pets and children after our favorite horror icons. Most importantly, Halloweentime is everything.
This fall, we are insanely excited to take Bloody Disgusting streaming with our very own channel launching for free on The Roku Channel* beginning Tues. September 29th.
Cinedigm is behind Bloody Disgusting TV, which features not only a mix of horror classics and contemporary cult favorites, but also a mass of original programming. New programming from Jon Grilz’ Creepy, Bloody Disgusting’s Boo Crew, SCP Archives, Horror Queers and This Week in Horror will also debut on the network this October with special trick-or-treat events planned for Halloween.
Cinedigm will also provide content from its catalog which includes hundreds of popular horror titles like The Collector, Day of the Dead, The Hills Have Eyes, Re-Animator, and Tales from the Crypt to foreign favorites such as Audition, Ringu, World of Kanako and Tenebrae.
The channel’s goal is to reflect the programming and curatorial sensibilities of Bloody Disgusting and the technology and distribution capabilities of Cinedigm.
“Partnering with Cinedigm gives us the opportunity to expand the Bloody Disgusting brand and deliver a variety of exciting original video content,” said Tom Owen, President of Bloody Disgusting. “We have been working to create something really special that we think fans of the genre are going to love. Our entire team is thrilled to be launching exclusively on The Roku Channel and being able to celebrate Halloween with horror fans everywhere on their platform.“
We’re really proud of this unique experiment that we hope is different than anything you’ve ever experienced.
Grab your favorite snacks and let Bloody Disgusting entertain you this Halloween season!
