Cult importer Xploited Cinema slowly fading in to oblivion.

With the news that Tartan Films have ceased to exist, cult movie fans and fans of foreign cinema took a heavy blow when one of the most prolific sources of none Hollywood movies closed it doors recently.
Now one of the best DVD import service in the US, Xploited cinema will be slowly fading out according to it's owner Tony Simonelli.
In a letter that he posted on the site Tony says that " it's time to slow down, rest and shift gears to new endeavors."
He goes on to say that they will stop ordering new stock in mid July and will not refill on older stock as it sells out but they will of course honor all orders as they did before so those who have pre ordered anything from them don't have to worry about being left empty handed.
Now this has nothing to do with them losing money on the whole endeavor but rather that Tony and crew simply don't see themselves doing this for the rest of their life and want to move on to other things. Nothing wrong with that but sucks for us I guess.

This is sad news of course because they have provided customers with elusive titles they might have a harder time finding and ordering. But technically they are just a middle man between the product and the customer. With foreign internet stores getting better and better all the time and prices getting more and more attractive it makes perfect sense to cut out the middle man to keep the price down. It's just that Xploited was a one trip stop for the strange and the weird with out the hassle of sometimes trying to decipher foreign web stores and sometimes insane pricing on shipping (dvdgo.com anyone?). They will be missed.

So get them while you can cause ones titles are gone they won't be re-ordered.
