ChristianCinema.com Announces 2nd Annual Christian Movie Madness
ChristianCinema.com announces its 2nd Annual Christian Movie Madness matchup. Christian Movie Madness puts two Christian films of the last year in competition with each other, with the winner advancing in a tournament-style bracket. ChristianCinema.com aims to bolster the Christian movie industry by creating an industry-wide buzz about audience-favorite films. Voting opens today and rounds will continue through the first week of April with a winner to be announced on April 5.
Anyone can vote by visiting www.ChristianMovieMadness.com to help their favorite movie advance while discovering new movies that will encourage and inspire you in your faith.
Jared Geesey, Vice President of Christian Cinema, noted, “The tournament is a fun way to discover new movies you might not have heard of. If a film is unfamiliar, you can watch the trailer and pick your favorite based on what you see each film is about. May the best film win!”
The second year of Movie Madness features last year’s blockbusters such as War Room, Woodlawn, Captive, and 90 Minutes in Heaven, as well as excellent but lesser known films like Catastasis, Faith of Our Fathers, 1500 Steps, and The Drop Box.
“Last year’s Movie Madness showed us that fans care about independent films as well as major theatrical releases,” said Bobby Downes, President and co-founder of ChristianCinema.com. “We’re excited about the opportunity of drawing attention to the thirty-two films that make up this year’s bracket.”
