Follow on Twitter #DEUCEMBER - Vote for the 2020 Deucember Star of the Month!
Origin
Our initial inspiration for Deucember came from both the yearly October horror celebration and the popular Noirvember event held on Twitter which focuses on film noir/neo-noir movies. Since our site covers a wide variety of international exploitation & cult cinema we wanted to find a month/theme that would reflect that and so we chose "Deucember" which is taken from the nickname of New York City's now famous grindhouse mecca 42nd Street aka "The Deuce" where a lot of these films played in theaters. One aspect that makes Deucember especially nice is that film geeks can watch/enjoy all kinds of genres, not just one.
