0 Comments

Exciting news for UK fans as Shevenge (a short film) directed by Amber Benson is now available in the UK via Amazon Video platform.

Released in 2015 Shevenge was completed with the help of fans and film enthusiasts, myself included, who backed an Indiegogo.com crowd funding campaign to raise funds to complete postproduction.

The film centers on three friends Sam (Emme Rylan), Charley (Jessica Courtemanche) and Taylor (Megan Lee Joy) who while having a slumber party begin plotting revenge on their ex-boyfriends. We then join them on a journey into the darkest part of their imagination as they take Shevenge on each one of them. This dark comedy pays homage to favourite film genres including horror, fantasy and action.

Following a number of successful screenings in the USA the Shevenge team took it to London for its UK debut at the Film4 Fright Fest Film Festival in August 2015.

Earlier this year Shevenge was made available to own digitally in the UK via Amazon Video platform. Now there is more good news for Amber fans who have an Amazon Prime membership, Shevenge is available to stream for free as part of your membership.

Shevenge was released as part of the second season of Etheria horror, an anthology celebrating the work of female directors and other roles both in front of and behind the camera. Shevenge is among 10 short films set in the horror or sci-fi genres.

Amazon Video is available online via computer, smart devices, games consoles and smart TVs. For full details on how to purchase Etheria Season 2 or Shevenge individually or view as part of your Prime Video Membership click the link below:

The good news for Amber fans in the USA is that Shevenge also available to stream as part of a Prime Membership. Like UK fans they also have the option to purchase Shevenge and/or buy the whole of Etheria Season 2. For full details click the link below:

I'd like to thank fellow Amber fan Samantha for giving me a heads up about this so I can let you all know.

I'm thrilled that Shevenge is part of Etheria Season 2, congratulations to Amber, Emme, Jessica, Megan and all of the cast and crew. It's fantastic that Shevenge is now available to an even bigger audience both here in the UK and in the USA and I can't wait to watch it again.

Last week I posted the exciting news that Holiday Wishes was being shown on UK TV again. Now Amber fans in the UK can watch it on demand via Amazon Prime Video.

Holiday Wishes is a fun festive movie in which Amber plays Danni Hartford, a professional party planner. She is asked by a client to drive her spoiled teenage daughter Britney to a school Christmas dance.

Britney crosses paths with high school new girl Katie and each of them make Christmas wishes that go awry. Danni decides to help the teenagers put things right and in the process she might find something that she's been looking for.

I've embedded a trailer below, however it does contain spoilers so if you haven’t had a chance to watch Holiday Wishes before I would avoid it for now.

Holiday Wishes is available to stream on demand via Amazon Prime Video for free. If you are an Amazon Prime member Holiday Wishes is included in your subscription. Unfortunately there is currently no option to rent or purchase it digitally as there is with some of the content on Amazon Prime. If you have a Prime membership you can stream it on a number of devices including computers, smartphones, tablets and more. So this festive period you can watch it wherever and however you, like for more information click here.

Watching Holiday Wishes is one of my Christmas traditions and I'll definitely be taking the opportunity to watch it on demand. If you’ve never seen it before check it out, it’s a must see for Amber fans.

I’d like to thank fellow Amber fan Samantha for giving me a heads up so I could post the news here for you all.

A Family Christmas Gift - Written By Amber Benson To Be Shown on UK TV Tomorrow

12/19/2020

0 Comments

Here is some exciting news for Amber fans in the UK. A Family Christmas Gift a festive movie written by Amber will be shown twice on UK TV tomorrow.

Amber wrote the original story for A Family Christmas Gift and she also co-wrote the teleplay with Alex Wright. The movie was written for the Hallmark Network and had its US premiere on 22nd of December last year on the Hallmark Movies and Mysteries Channel.

A Family Christmas Gift centres on Amber, a busy New York-based executive played by Holly Robinson Pete. She is persuaded by her Aunt Dora (Patti Labelle) to join her for Christmas in Colorado and help plan the annual Christmas concert.

Holly Robinson Pete's name may be familiar to Amber fans as she plays the role of Billie Blessings in Morning Show Mysteries. Amber wrote the script/teleplay for A Murder In Mind and Death By Design two movies in the popular series in 2019.

A Family Christmas Gift will be shown at 11 AM Sunday, 20th of December on Christmas 24
and at 8 PM the same day on Christmas 24+.

Unfortunately Christmas 24 doesn't seem to have a reliable online presence from what I've been able to find out and is currently showing on Sky channel 325, Virgin Media channel 419 and BT channel 513. I have Sky so I can confirm Sky channel 325 is the right number. I would advise virgin and BT customers to check their on-screen listings to be sure these channel numbers are correct. I haven't been able to find channel numbers for Christmas 24+ for Virgin Media or BT, again my advice would be to check your on-screen guide. Christmas 24+ is on Sky Channel 326

I have embedded a trailer and extended a sneak peek clip of A Family Christmas Gift. There are some spoilers so if you would rather wait-and-see what Amber has in store for us then I'd avoid it for now. I just wanted to place it here in case there are some fans who would like to see more.

Everyone at AmberBenson.TV is delighted that Amber has been able to add to her growing body of work as a writer for television and we wish her every success with the movie.

I know this will be a strange and very different Christmas for a lot of us this year but I hope that everyone is still able to enjoy the festive period and I hope you all stay safe.

Great news for Amber Benson fans in UK as Holiday Wishes is back on TV this week. Holiday Wishes is a fun festive movie in which Amber plays Danni Hartford. A professional party planner who’s asked by a client to drive her spoiled teenage daughter Britney to a school Christmas dance.

Britney crosses paths with high school new girl Katie and each of them make Christmas wishes that go awry. Danni decides to help the teenagers put things right and in the process she might find something that she's been looking for.

I've embedded a trailer below however it does contain spoilers so if you haven’t had a chance to watch Holiday Wishes before I would avoid it for now.

Holiday Wishes will be shown at 12pm on Wednesday the 16th of December on Sony Christmas which is available on Sky Channel 319, Freeview Channel 50, Virgin Media Channel 424, and Freesat Channel 303. It will also be shown one hour later at 1pm on Sony Movies Christmas +1. Where available check channel guides and listings for details. Please Note: If you are planning to record it I’ve noticed a five minute interval called Sony Movie News splits Holiday Wishes into two separate parts so depending on your channel guide you may need to press record twice.

Watching Holiday Wishes is one of my Christmas traditions and I'll definitely be watching or setting my Sky box to record it. If you’ve never seen it before check it out, it’s a must see for Amber fans.

The panel is a must see for any Amber/Buffy fan as Amber and co discuss life in lockdown and share their experiences and memories of what it was like to be part of the Buffyverse. There are some brilliant behind-the-scenes stories and a lot of laughs too, I can highly recommend it.
