Cinema Suicide

One year ago, today, probably around the time of this post, I launched Cinema Suicide.  It was just me and my many ridiculous opinions about movies.  It seemed strange for a professional web developer not to have his own website and after many frustrations of websites and magazines telling me that they only published reviews from published reviewers, I set out to create a repository for reviews.  The next time an editor asked me if I had ever been published, I could point to this site and say, “Why, yes! Cinema Suicide publishes my wiriting,” but it didn’t take long for this place to take on a life of its own.  My creation was growing out of my control.  Movies were quoting my reviews in their press materials, producers and directors were asking me to cover their productions.

This site has grown steadily since day one (a total of 7 visitors) and a year later we’re in a place that I couldn’t possibly have predicted.  I’ve added an actual staff of writers and a marketer.  We’re out here producing a film series in New Hampshire to screen cult favorites at one of the oldest theaters in the country. We’re preparing to produce a webisodic series of paranormal investigations and in the next couple of weeks you’ll all get a look at our line of silk screened posters and t-shirts featuring original art from a handful of talented artists, soon to be on sale here at Cinema Suicide.  Staff writer, Tim Fife, is also about to kick off a series of articles, reviews and interviews focusing on the music of the movies that we love so much here starting with interviews with frequent Lucio Fulci collaborator, Fabio Frizzi and Goblin mastermind, Claudio Simonetti.

So, in closing, I want to thank every one of you for coming by.  It means a lot to us here and your continued support means that we’ll keep on cranking out the quality articles that you have come to expect from us.  We’re standing on the precipice of huge changes and in the coming months, this place is going to blow up.
