Clive Barker Fans Take Note:
THE MIDNIGHT MEAT TRAIN Needs Your Help!
Hi Folks!
We’ve heard from several people that Lionsgate has decided to essentially turn Clive Barker’s new film, THE MIDNIGHT MEAT TRAIN, into a straight-to-DVD release, even though we’ve also heard the final cut of the film is really terrific. This same source reports that 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 THE MIDNIGHT MEAT TRAIN in all its big screen glory, here are a couple of ways to let Lionsgate know how you feel:
1) email Lionsgate investor relations at keasterling@lionsgate.com
2) email Lionsgate’s general customer contact at general-inquiries@lionsgate.com
3) call the main Lionsgate office at 310-449-9200 and express your desire to see MIDNIGHT MEAT TRAIN in the theater.
AS ALWAYS, BE POLITE AND PROFESSIONAL!
For the emails, here is a sample we saw in our inbox the other day:

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!
——————————–
Good luck to all of the Clive Barker fans out there! Make sure your voices are heard before it’s too late!
