We Hear You Loud and Clear

Since the inception of Meet Martell @ The Movies and the Midnight Screening Series, we have received hundreds of requests from various subscribers wanting the series for their city. A few weeks ago, we started a contest to see which city really wants the event in their town. Cleveland, Atlanta, Detroit and Philadelphia have been screaming loud, as well as Dallas and Houston, TX. We still want to give everyone a chance to represent their town, so please, send us a note stating that you want blackfilm.com and Martell to visit your city. Send your e-mail to info@blackfilm.com and include the following:

• Full Name:
• Complete Mailing Address:
• Phone Number:
• Be sure to include your zip-code.

Thanks again for taking the time to spread the word and representing your city.

Till next time,
the blackfilm.com crew
