Couch Cutter

Hello there, my name is David Anthony, the new co-owner here at HorrorMovieEmpire.com. Some of you may know me as the purveyor of CouchCutter.com. Those of you with actual lives, probably do not.

I wanted to address what was going on with the whole Blue-Underground fiasco…
In the most basic of terms, the original owner (and still co-owner), Demetrios was on his own and wasn’t prepared for a mass flood of orders that this sale incurred. He wasn’t prepared, because he never expected it. Though the store did okay, it just hadn’t hit overly impressive numbers up to this point. The response was insane. And we love you all for that.

But the lack of infrastructure and preparation made a huge mess. And Demetrios has since emptied his bank account and nearly lost his business trying to make it right.
It’s bitter sweet that this is what opened the door for me to become a partner at Horror Movie Empire. I sat down with Demetrios, strategizing how to A) clean up the problem that was already made, and B) ensure that it never happens again.

Let me share with you the situation that we are in: There is not currently enough money in our bank accounts to reimburse those of you that haven’t been compensated yet. Nobody went out and bought porsches with this money. Much of it was spent in panic, trying to get the manpower to help sort this mess out. But in the throes of trying to contain a mess that had already gone nuclear, it became clear that the infrastructure, the spine wasn’t there to support this ordeal to begin with. Information was scattered and lost, pornographic amounts of money was spent, animals were sacrificed… It was bad.

Seriously, though… What happened was inexcusable. The whole problem going on now is deplorable. But what I can guarantee you, is that everyone will be recompensated and *none* of this was done out of any malice on Demetrios’ part. He’s a good, genre-loving dude that got caught off guard, and unfortunately there were consequences that affected many of you.

This is what we are going to do about it: The store has been shut down since late March. We have re-opened and I will be temporarily taking over so Demetrios can take care of you folks that still need taking care of. From this day forward, we will not pocket *a dime* from Horror Movie Empire sales until everyone is reimbursed for their order. There’s nothing we can give you that will make up for the negative experience you’ve had here, but we will do everything humanly possible to restore your losses.

As you look around the site, I think you will notice a lot of changes. Well
, those aren’t just cosmetic. The Horror Movie Empire of old is dead and a new era begins. We have new shipping procedures and infrastructures, strategies to bring you even more great deals, and even more products!

While Demetrios spends 90% of his time straightening out with the remaining few of you that have not been compensated for your order, I will be handling many of your inquiries.

Thank you for your patience and your patronage.
