FEARnet Dumped by Time Warner

The totally awesome FEARnet On Demand channel has been dropped by cable provider Time Warner.  Luckily, FEARnet is still available on AT&T U-Verse and Verizon Fios.

But, losing Time Warner is a huge blow to FEARnet, which broadcasts uncut and uncensored horror flicks and programming.  associate editor FEARnet.com Joe McCabe has sent word out to blogs such as Chud and others:

You might have heard that Time Warner and Brighthouse just dropped FEARnet On Demand from their cable networks. As a fellow genre film lover, I’m sure you’ll agree that – with Monsters HD going under – we need a decent horror channel on TV.  And since we’re planning to unspool a lot of cool flicks on FEARnet in the days ahead – like the unedited ‘Midnight Meat Train’, ‘Phantasm’, ‘Army of Darkness’, and ‘Hostel II’ – we want the fans to be able to see them! Could you please let your users know that if they’d like to see FEARnet On Demand back on Time Warner, they should call 1-877-FEAR-247? We’ll connect them with our cable operator and they can let them know that they want FEARnet. (Please note that for some cable subscribers, FEARnet is available on AT&T U-Verse and Verizon Fios).

If you are a horror fan and have Time Warner cable, give them a call and let your voice be heard.
