Really Bad News
 
from Variety:
Management firm and production entity the Collective has acquired horror-film website Bloody-Disgusting.com.

Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed, but the site will provide the Collective with a means to identify new talent the company could represent while also serving as a promotional tool for the projects its filmmakers produce.

At the same time, the new owner will enable the site to beef up its offerings to genre fans, with plans in the works to stream full-length pics and user-generated videos and to build its social-networking offerings.

The Collective reps such talent as Forest Whitaker, Martin Lawrence, Eddie Izzard, Emile Hirsch and John Leguizamo and recently produced the pics "Big Momma's House 2," "Are We Done Yet?" and "The Nanny Diaries," as well as TV show "Wild 'n Out" on MTV.




So now Bloody-Disgusting will simply be the marketing arm of a production company instead of an independent source for horror new...and their track record sucks.

I'd suggest that anyone here who visits the site regularly go and un-register. The site is no longer valid.

I've never been there...But, I feel bad for all of the regular members...That really sucks

It's all about money, Sweetheart...They could care less about the genre or the content

_____V_____ 09-13-2007 07:20 AM

Bloody-Disgusting.com was the site with the most viewed hits in recent times. Hence the acquisition. Now they ll peddle their wares through it.

Damn corporate honchos and their gimmicks...:rolleyes:

AmericanManiac 09-13-2007 07:31 AM

Does it state how much it was bought for?

Jacked up 09-13-2007 07:37 AM

That sucks...

I really liked bloody disgusting. It looks like it may turn into a cheese site now.

Money is still in transit as we speak. The deal isnt over yet, redhead.:cool:

Hmmm... When i get scaredyet.net back online, i need everyone to get their friends to hit it constantly. Then when a giant mega-corporation buys it up, i can take a picture of my giant "set-you-up-for-life" check and send it to all my admiring fans.


The picture, not the check. The check will get blown on a house and sexual favors from my wife.

(for the record, She doesnt make me pay for it, i just like it that way. It makes it dirty)

Bloody-disgusting, I have been there in ages... money,money,money.

jenna26 09-13-2007 09:29 AM

Well, that is bad news. I go by there a few times a week. Oh well, that's the way it goes, I guess.

massacre man 09-13-2007 10:04 AM

Well, it's from Variety and I haven't seen anything on the main B-D site.

There may be hope yet.

Of course THEY won't say anything about it. Why tip your hand that your website is now a corporate shill? They'll try to keep everything as normal as possible, but the "reviews" and "news" won't necessarily be trustworthy anymore.

Something about that post sounded very Dale Gribble-ish for some reason.

Shame on all you people for even think of going to another "horror" site other than HDC.


Actually I visit there once in a while. Any suggestions Rod [seeing that you are an "insider" ] on other trust-worthy sites?
