RIDDUM_N_STYLE Posted April 2, 2021 Share Posted April 2, 2021 Bumping this because the second season of the Creepshow spin off series began on Shudder yesterday (I stumbled across it by chance on Vumoo) with a fun pair of stories. The first one was about a kid obsessed with horror movies, mostly Universal Monster movies, as a release to help cope with his mum's illness who gets revenge on his abusive uncle after being put into his care when she passes while the second is a fantastic homage/accompaniment to the Evil Dead franchise when a local TV antique hunter unlocks and reads the Necronomicon Ex Mortis, brought to his attention as a family heirloom by Ted Raimi aka Sam's brother, and unleashes the DeaditesĀ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Panhead Posted May 22, 2021 Share Posted May 22, 2021 (edited) Can anyone please tell me if you need to have a Prime Video subscription to be able to watch Shudder through it? I want to be able to watch it on my LG TV but there's no specific app for it on there. There isn't one for it on the PS4 either, but I can see it's available through Prime Video. Apologies if this sounds like a load of bollocks and doesn't make sense.Ā Ā Ā EDIT*** Never mind. Just had a proper look and you need to have a Prime Video subscription to watch Shudder through it.Ā Edited May 22, 2021 by Panhead Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Chris B Posted May 22, 2021 Paid Members Share Posted May 22, 2021 It depends what you have or what you're using. There's a version of the Shudder app via Prime Video as a channel. But there's also a Shudder App that's separate - it's just not available on everything. Apparently, they're working on a PS app.Ā There isn't an app for my TV, but I got an Amazon Firestick, which it *is* available on as an app (and you don't need a Prime subscription to use it). It's also available on Roku. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panhead Posted May 23, 2021 Share Posted May 23, 2021 Might be worth while me grabbing a cheap Fire Stick then. Thanks man. When I Googled about a PS app, I found something where they said they were working on it. I think the article was from about four years ago!Ā Would you recommend Shudder then? I'm just really desperate to see Psycho Goreman but I can see plenty of other stuff that I'd watch on there.Ā Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Thunderplex Posted May 23, 2021 Paid Members Share Posted May 23, 2021 I subscribe to shudder occasionally, binge what I want to watch then leave. Ā Some good original stuff On there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Chris B Posted May 25, 2021 Paid Members Share Posted May 25, 2021 I don't watch as much stuff as I could, but there's plenty of good stuff in there.Ā The way I look at it, I'd have spent the subscription cost on a couple of DVDs here and there over the months, so it's still pretty good value. I've got subscriptions to that and Arrow - depending on your tastes, Arrow probably has a better movie selection overall (with a great Giallo selection of increasingly florid titles like Death Walks In High HeelsĀ andĀ What Have You Done To Solange?Ā ). That said, where Shudder really stands out to me are some of the documentaries (Horror Noire in particular).Ā On the plus side, both are pay-by-the-month, so you can cancel at any time. In which case, I'd certainly suggest giving it a month or two and binging, like @Thunderplex Ā Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Posted May 31, 2021 Share Posted May 31, 2021 Just battered through all 4+ hours of In Search of Darkness Part II. Anyone else seen it? It's on Shudder, by the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Posted May 31, 2021 Share Posted May 31, 2021 Yeah, they're definitely better watched in small bursts. I did that over the weekend, maybe watching an hour at a time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kamaras-Tash Posted May 31, 2021 Share Posted May 31, 2021 I thought the 1st one was a massive dissapointment just seemed to spend a minute or 2 on a film then jump to another with no real insight into anything, strangely I enjoyed the action film version they did thoughĀ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arrow/Scream Factory have done some brilliant retrospectives. There is a Night of the Demon's one, and a couple focusing on various House franchise movies that are decent too....
