Zombie Strippers is listed on channels more than this 'movie'.
In fact, I don't recall EVER seeing it listed on any channel.
No one wants to air it because its so bad they know that viewers would watch ANY other channel than the one that is airing this putrid pile of poo.

Meh, it's always on TV where I live in the UK. SKY network.

It's a bad movie for sure.

[–] draftdubya 9 years ago

It's on Netflix and Epix. They have exclusive rights to it and many more movies.

Was on Danish TV3, just now..

Was fun to re-watch it..

[–] spielberto 9 years ago

EPIX?!?!?!?!?
What goofy kind of a channel is that?
My point stands then that it is minor backwater channel, not one of the nationwide broadcast channels.

(In America)

Then you really should have looked up what Epix is, LOL.

Jeez man, have you seen some of the crap that makes it into the rotation on HBO? This is not a good gauge for judging how good or bad a movie is.

P.S. Extra comedy: banner ad on the top of this page is "This movie is included with Amazon Prime," and yes, they mean this movie.

[–] spielberto 9 years ago

I did look up Epix. I HAD to because it's non-existent where I live.
And I never said HBO.
I mean the channels that EVERYONE gets in America. NONE of these channels even bother to show it.
But since you brought it up, yes, they show crap on HBO.......and even they don't show it. It's WORSE than crap. They think if they show crap, they'll still get more viewers.
What does that tell you? 

[–] enfilmigult 9 years ago

And I never said HBO.

I know, I did. I was pointing out that a movie being on a well-known movie channel doesn't automatically spell "good movie." It would follow that a movie not being there doesn't automatically spell "bad movie" either. (When's the last time you saw a movie channel air 'Cries and Whispers'?)

What does that tell you?

It tells me that Netflix, Amazon and Epix got there first. For U.S. rights anyway; HBO apparently has indeed been airing it in Asia.

Really, this is just such an awful way to criticize a movie. Criticize the actual movie. Unless it's a special case like the movie being put on the shelf for years before premiering on DVD, you'll go mad trying to figure out its quality from measures like "it's on a movie channel, but not a super popular movie channel."

[–] spielberto 9 years ago

If it was good though, Channels would show it because they know people will watch it, and viewers equal ratings, equal ability to charge higher advertising rates, equals more money.
So NOT showing it says, to me, they realize no one is going to watch it and they'd be better off airing something else......ANYTHING else.
