Psychopaths. Aliens. Mutants. Cyborgs. Trolls. Valet Girls. Sorority Babes. These are only a few of the extraordinary characters that populated the cinematic universe of Empire Pictures, the short-lived film studio founded in the 1980\u2019s by legendary B-movie producer Charles Band (The Puppet Master series). While other independent studios were targeting the growing home video market, Band was producing low-budget horror and fantasy features for multiplexes worldwide.<\/p>\n<p>But, while Band ambitiously exclaimed \u201c2,000 movies by the year 2000\u201d, his newfound studio was rapidly crumbling beneath him. His unbridled passion for motion picture marketing and distribution clashed with scandalous banking practices, largely due to a turbulent relationship with the infamous Cr\u00e9dit Lyonnais. But what really caused the youthful film company to crash and burn upon the sticky floors of empty movie theaters?<\/p>\n<p>From the immediate box office success of \u201cRe-Animator\u201d and \u201cGhoulies\u201d, to abysmal failure of \u201cEliminators\u201d and \u201cTerrorVision\u201d, this unique documentary chronicles the epic journey of Charles Band\u2019s Empire Pictures.
