Movie Mania (formerly B Mania) was a 24-hour movie network that catered to fans of the B movie genre and was targeted at a male audience. Carriage was limited to a small number of cable companies, as well as being available via the C-Band 4DTV system (Galaxy 23, VCN 800). The channel was organized into smooth eight-hour blocks, so the same movie was generally shown three times per day.
History[]
The Channel ended broadcast in November 2000, becoming Movie Mania[1]
Programming[]
Genres shown on the channel were Premier Theatre, Action Theatre, Comedy Corner, Horror Feature, Classic Cinema and M2 Movie as well as M2 Specials. Movies ranged from the well-known, (ex. Night of the Living Dead), to cult films (ex. Santa Claus Conquers the Martians) to new movies.[2]
Current status[]
The channel is no longer broadcasting and the web site is also gone.[3]
