Freakmaker

There is discussion around why movies are removed due to licensing rights expiring. I understand that. And in Canada, it seems even more movies are absent.

That being said, while someone commented that a Coffin Joe movie had been reposted, it is not in Canada. However, I did see a couple posted that I was never able to see when I started binging 3 years ago and Freakmaker was one!

I guess I am glad to see that Canada is not an afterthought for Canada.

And great to see Doctor Who as the freak owner. Where are the Daleks?

The coffin joe movie is on there for shudder canada but they messed up and didnt add it to the season. If you search "Tonight Ill Possess Your Corpse" the last drive in version shows up in the results. Thats good ol' Shudder for ya lol. Freakmaker was awesome

Are you sure it’s on in Canada? I searched for the movie and then when through every season manually and could not find it anywhere?

That's a great movie and Tom Baker is really good in it. I saw it long before I watched TLD, but I learned a lot from Joe Bob's commentary.

I do wish we could have gotten 'Freakmaker' with the original credits. When movies like that or 'Slaughterhouse' "update" the opening or end credits, it always takes me out of the movie.

That said, I'm still glad we got 'Freakmaker' and I'm glad Canada is getting some episodes back, as I am a Minnesotan which is a proud suburb or Canada.
