About Shudder by AMC

AMC Networks owns and operates Shudder, an over-the-top subscription video-on-demand service that features horror, thriller, and supernatural fiction movies.

Shudder began in the summer of 2015 with an invite-only beta test in the United States. It has completed beta testing and has extended to Canada, the United Kingdom, and Ireland by October 2016. Shudder is available on Android and Apple mobile devices, Amazon Fire devices, Android TV, Apple TV, Roku, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, Chromecast, and Amazon Video subscriptions (monthly or annual).

From August 2017 to July 2019, Shudder was also available as part of the VRV combo bundle. A monthly subscription in the United States costs $5.99 a month, but prices in other countries are modified according to the local currency. Shudder expanded its operations to Australia and New Zealand on August 16, 2020.

Shudder has over 500 horror films in October 2016, according to Aja Romano of Vox, while its closest competitor, Screambox, had 400. Shudder, according to Romano, has a “amazing assortment of higher-quality films.” According to Charlie Lyne of The Guardian, the UK version of Shudder included roughly 200 films. Sam Zimmerman and Colin Geddes, channel curators, have created categories such as “Urban Decay,” “Slashics,” and “Not Your Ordinary Bloodsucker,” which divide the collection into sub-categories. Zimmerman formerly worked for Fangoria and Shock Til You Drop, and Geddes previously worked for the Toronto International Film Festival as a film producer.

Shudder has been distributing The Dead Lands, a Mori–themed horror series set in pre-contact New Zealand that was co-produced by AMC and New Zealand public broadcaster TVNZ, from January 23, 2020. Shudder is in charge of distribution in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, and Ireland, while TVNZ On Demand is in charge of distribution in New Zealand.
