Listen "Ep486 - Robin Block Returns, Founder CreatorVC & Darkness Unlimited Platform"
Episode Synopsis
“We delivered six, critically-acclaimed, super long documentaries in the last five years with the help of 80,000 backers,” Robin Block told me. “We’re the leading crowdfunded factual entertainment company in the world right now.”
This includes the In Search of Darkness horror trilogy, First Person Shooter, In Search of Tomorrow sci-fi documentary, In Search of Last Action Heroes, First Person Shooter and the latest installment, In Search of Darkness 1990-1994.
“It’s a manifestation of fandom,” he said of these films. “We’re not going to be doing documentaries forever. Where my interest is now, is membership and community platforms. Instead of one-off, big projects that are supported by tens of thousands of backers, I want to build a never-ending In Search of Darkness.”
The new project, Darkness Unlimited, will launch with 14 hours of new content, 20 hours of never-before-seen materials. “It’ll be exclusive interviews, like long-form interviews with John Carpenter. And we’ll launch that for about $29 for six months access. I want to create a community for elite horror fans who want to visit old movies and understand them and see what’s happening on new movies, on set. We want to create the most powerful horror community in the world.”
