Elvira Star Says Netflix And Shudder Rejected Her Revival Ideas: ‘So Now What?’

Posted on by Leave a comment

Really? It’s not clear exactly what Shudder was turning down — a new series, a new movie, just airing her classic Elvira‘s Movie Macabre episodes, or maybe all of it. Without knowing the full context, it’s hard to know what led to a rejection. Too expensive? Are there any rights issues? It’s hard to imagine they just didn’t think the content would be a good fit. – Gina Carbone, Cinema Blend » https://www.cinemablend.com/television/2478779/elvira-star-says-netflix-and-shudder-rejected-her-revival-ideas-so-now-what [photo: New World Pictures/IMDb]

The classic horror/suspense anthology series Boris Karloff’s The Veil is available as it’s own stand alone free Roku Channel. […] The series was hosted by Boris Karloff, who also acted in every episode but one, and was allegedly based upon real-life reports of supernatural happenings. […] Hailed by critics as “the greatest television series never seen” (according to DVD release publicity) The Veil was never broadcast. Troubles within the studio (and the collapse of a preliminary co-production arrangement with National Telefilm Associates) resulted in production being cancelled after only 10 episodes. – William B.

Shudder was launched through a partnership with AMC and DramaFever, but it isn’t AMC’s first foray into the realm of cult viewerships. The recently relaunched and positively reviewed SundanceNow Doc Club streaming service gives members access to an extensive library of Sundance-approved documentaries, complete with collections curated by notable names. Currently, Shudder is still in Beta mode, but I’m going to try and answer the most pressing streaming service question: Is Shudder worth the $4.99 a month cost? – Kayla Cobb, Decider
