What's IN4?

I also noticed the Halloween 4/5. I would definitely be interested in any of the Halloween, Friday the 13th, or Nightmare on Elm Street movies...not that I'm complaining. You are doing a wonderful service to all of us. Thank you so much. I really appreciate your efforts.

Ok then...what's FUSE?

For the curious, Fuse is a music video-oriented television channel, launched in 2003, and owned by Rainbow Media.
