[MOVIES OF THE FUTURE] XLRATOR MEDIA ANNOUNCES NEW HORROR & ACTION SCHEDULE!

 

I watch a ton of XLrator Media films, so I’m happy to run this press release listing some news about their upcoming release schedule. It may be vaguely nerdy of me to pay that much attention to production company logos, but in my defense, XLrator has a striking logo, plus any film fan worth a damn ought to notice a company that can boast releases as interesting as FIVE STAR, HOUSEBOUND, THE MACHINE, and of course, Daily Grindhouse favorite AMERICAN MARY. Some of the upcoming movies mentioned here sound pretty cool — see for yourself!
