A Call for Contributors!



Greetings, fellow bad movie lovers!

You may have noticed that updates have been few and far between for a long time around here. Frankly, life has kinda gotten in the way and I simply don’t have the time and energy to devote to this site that I once did. That said, I don’t want to abandon this old girl to decay and ruin, so I’m asking you, the loyal visitors of BadMovieRealm.com for your help!

I’m looking for contributors to help keep BadMovieRealm.com chugging along. While all submissions will be considered, there are a few guidelines for you to follow:


Submitted reviews must be at least 500 words long and ideally be around 800-1000 words. However, a well-written, humorous 500 word review is far preferable to a rambling 1000 word one (I know this because I myself have written quite a few of the latter variety). Additionally, it would be very much appreciated if you could include several original screenshots (8-12, or more) from the film along with your review.

Original articles will also be accepted for the blog. Actor/director profiles, genre overviews, top 10 lists, etc. will all be considered for publication. If you’ve got an idea, send it my way and I’ll let you know if it would fit the site.

If you would like credit for your work (and why wouldn’t you?!) please include a picture and short bio along with your submissions so your profile can be added to the upcoming “Contributors List.” Also, if you have a website, Twitter, Facebook page, etc. which you would like included with your work, feel free to include those links as well. I want everyone to receive full credit for their hard work. 🙂

Anonymous and improperly credited submissions (You don’t have to use your real name, but screen-names like “UrBoy6969” or “FuX0r3Dy0uRm0m” are not acceptable author names) will, in keeping with the Hollywood tradition, be credited as being authored by “Alan Smithee.”

And it goes without saying (but thrill as I say it anyway) that all reviews and articles must be original and should fit within the basic theme of the site. The movies featured don’t have to be terrible (although that is a big plus on a site called “BadMovieRealm.com”) but they should at least fit within the cult/sci-fi/fantasy/horror/exploitation genres.

Please try and keep all writing at a roughly PG-13 level. Occasional swearing for emphasis is acceptable, but an over-reliance on vulgarity is just lazy. Try to be a little more original. If I can review a porno and keep it clean, you can certainly do the same with some obscure ninja flick or zombie movie. 🙂

 

So, if you’re interested in joining the team and achieving your own little slice of internet fame and immortality, go ahead and send your submissions to: submissions@badmovierealm.com

 

And now for some boring legal stuff: All submissions will become the exclusive property of BadMovieRealm.com and may be edited, revised, incorporated into larger works, and/or removed at any time and for any reason. BadMovieRealm.com is under no obligation to accept and/or publish any submission. No compensation will be ever be paid, but original authors will always be credited unless we (BadMovieRealm.com) are otherwise instructed by the author himself.
