its not a huge mystery - its a function of the dvd market collapsing. less shelf space, so less room for DTV.

Posted by: Moviesnob on May 08, 12:27 in response to HarryWarden's post Anyone have any thoughts as to why the DTV horror market...

After Dark isnt DTV. Ghost House was, but they arent acquiring DTV product anymore

BOM: [TBDRG] made $689k / 259 theaters , [BEAVR] $104k / 22, [LSNIT] $32k /10, Passion Play 2k / 2 theaters OlegMaxYTD May 08, 09:46

[PSNPL] That sucks for Passion Play... but the movie sucks. We'll see if either that or LSNIT report box office. {nm} secretstalker May 08, 10:01

both are digital plays. "sucks" is not an applicable description {nm} Moviesnob May 08, 10:42

It's better than An Invisible Sign... Have you seen that? secretstalker May 08, 10:45

Oh no you didn't! ;) {nm} HarryWarden May 08, 10:47

believe it or not, we passed {nm} Moviesnob May 08, 11:11

action is really the only genre we can get away with DTV....sequels/prequels to theatricals still do well at DTV, not much else does {nm} Moviesnob May 08, 11:12

Anyone have any thoughts as to why the DTV horror market dried up? It must have done well before; the market was flooded with them HarryWarden May 08, 11:17

So Ghost House Underground is history? What happened to Dimension Extreme? {nm} HarryWarden May 08, 15:18

I hope you weren't nice about it when you passed :) {nm} secretstalker May 08, 12:44

MS, what's the best-selling DTV genre? Action films? Does horror or comedy sell well in that format? HarryWarden May 08, 11:01
