Lionsgate Shifts 'The Midnight Meat Train' Again
Thursday, June 5, 2008

Choo-choo! Lionsgate has set the ball rolling and has shifted the release of The Midnight Meat Train (review) once again, but at least it's only a two week difference. The adaptation of the short story by Clive Barker will now hit theaters August 1 instead of July 11. No word on if it'll open in more theaters, but word has it that the release will be extremely limited. The story features a commuter's run-in with a New York subway serial killer and a horde of subterranean cannibals.

The thing that bugs me about a limited release is it just pushes back the eventual dvd release. If you're not going to support it, just put it out on dvd already so the people that want to see it can.

Movie studios make no sense. Everyone I've shown this trailer to, even non-horror fans, want to see it. It just looks like an awesome film.
