The worst possible news, Zone Horror - the
UK's leading (only!) free to air channel dedicated to trashy horror movies is closing it's doors!
Chello Zone who own the channel have merged with CBS and will replace Zone Horror and the other Zone channels with CBS produced content. So no more sleazy b-movies movies on Zone Thriller either! This is a sad day indeed.
It launched in 2003 as The Horror Channel,
re-branding in 2006. Thinking about it when your best shows are re-runs of
Beastmaster - The Series and Mutant X, and
prime time is filled with such gems as
Ghoulies and Slumber Party Massacre 3, and those are the classier ones, it's not hard to see why there was no profit in this televisual tour-
de-force of bad taste. I for one will miss it, where else could you watch Joan Collins in Empire of the Ants every weekend, guaranteed! They also specialised in late night gore with an
abundance of cannibal and zombie movies in the early hours. With it's average audience share of 0.1% all of three people including me will give a damn, but how could anyone hope to top a lineup like this:
Zone Horror
2003-2009
