How this fandom is changing entertainment

The Last Drive-in has in many ways rescued a discarded format. In the 90s, movie hosts were fairly common on TV, with hosts on multiple networks setting up everything from horror movies to westerns. Film hosting provides viewers with stories, details, and context that enriches the viewing experience. What makes The Last Drive-in especially unique is that while the show is prerecorded, it is streamed on Shudder TV live and is not available to restream for a few days. This brings the fans of the show together to watch all at the same time in an age where “appointment television“ is going extinct.
