Existing FilmCrave members

Click here to log into your FilmCrave account. Once logged in, select your desired club, provide accurate payment information and click submit. You will gain immediate access to exclusive movie news and other movie content. In addition, you will receive your first month's DVD within 30 days.

As a member, you not only get to create movie lists and write reviews, you will receive DVDs specific to your chosen club, each month. As an added bonus, you will be granted access to exclusive movie news, daily blog, and more. The Movie Discovery Club is the definitive movie club on the internet.

How the club works

You select your Movie Discovery Club membership option that best meets your needs. Choose which exclusive movie club you want to join. Enter in your payment information. You are then granted access to the exclusive Movie Discovery Club section on FilmCrave. Each month you will receive a movie shipped directly to your door that is specific to your chosen movie club. For more information on how the club works, visit the Movie Discovery Club page.

Each month you will receive

  • The best available DVD edition specific to your chosen club delivered to your door
  • Expertly written newsletter detailing club offerings
  • Exclusive movie news and other movie content available daily on FilmCrave.com
  • Preferential treatment to your content on FilmCrave.com (your reviews, your movie lists, and more)
  • And much more!

No! Part of our selection process involves our understanding of movies you have seen, own and want to see. We personally go through each club member’s movie lists to ensure that you a) don’t receive movies you have seen or own and b) receive a movie that you will enjoy and want to own (that you may never have tried before). This dedicated process ensures that you enjoy the exclusive movie club to the fullest extent.

When becoming a member of the Movie Discovery Club, we ask that you do 2 things. 1) Create a "movies I own" list, 2) Rate all of the movies that you've seen. Using your movie lists and ratings (and other members’), we create a master “movies not to send list" each month, ensuring that you never receive a movie you have seen or own.

The movie selection process is very complex and intense. Each month we evaluate every member’s movie lists to determine what everyone has seen, owned and wants to see. We then look at their rating history as well as other factors. After a careful evaluation, we then reach out to our vendors to determine which films meet members’ requirements for both the highest quality of movies and greatest DVD editions available. There are a lot of great movies that have been given poor DVD treatment and there are a lot of great DVDs that include poor movies. We select only the best combination to deliver to you.

The founders of both FilmCrave.com and the Movie Discovery Club select each clubs’ movies. Your selection is not based on availability, price or complex formulas. We hand pick our movies to give it the personal touch you deserve. You will get the best service available on the internet.

Movies can include titles like Lawrence of Arabia, Citizen Kane, The Most Dangerous Game and many other classic and cult films. As you can see, we don’t choose no name, low budget, made-for-TV movies. Only the best are selected that meet the club members’ needs.

The Movie Discovery Club selects which films you will receive each month. We believe that this enhances your movie discovery process and allows you to see and own films you may never have tried or were not willing to purchase. The basis for our club is discovering new films.

Yes! Unlike online rental places, these movies are yours to keep and to add to your collection. The monthly movies that are shipped to your door are the greatest editions available and contain deep insight into the films to help you enjoy them even more.

Brand new, direct from the studios. We never deliver used or opened movies. Our dedication to giving you a great experience starts with giving you only new DVDs.

The best version available (not always the newest). As you know, DVD distributors will “double dip,” dishing out the single disc version and then a month later coming out with a Special Edition. We despise this practice and that is why we have researched, watched and selected only the best available versions for you to enjoy and own. In other words, if a 2-disc edition is available in addition to a single disc version, you will get the 2-disc version.

Membership questions

This is a monthly club subscription, similar to a magazine. You will receive your 1st membership package roughly within 30 days of signing up (in most cases, much faster).

You will get your monthly membership package by the end of every month. We try to ship around the 20th every month but some months we are desperately trying to decide on the perfect movie for a given club, which may delay shipment.

You can cancel your exclusive movie club membership at any time. Before you cancel please reach out to us as we are always here to assist you. If it is the movie selection, the price, or any other reason, please let us know so that we can improve every aspect of this exclusive club.

Yes. Simply log into your account, click the account button, and edit your information

Log in to your account, click the account button, and look for the “cancel membership” button.

You can always contact us by posting a comment on our profile. The Movie Discovery Club members you can always count on are Alex, Nick and Chris. You may also send us an email to info@moviediscoveryclub.com.

As an exclusive member, your membership is automatically renewed each month. You do not need to do anything to continue your membership.

Simply place the defective DVD and all of the DVD contents into the envelope that you received for that month. We will then ship you a new copy as it is replaced. Send all defective DVDs to:

  • Movie Discovery Club
  • C/O FilmCrave.com
  • 3549 NE Austin Dr.
  • Lee’s Summit, MO 64064

Absolutely! The best way to suggest movies to the club is to place them in your “movies I want” list. Also, you can email or post a message on our home profile page.

General Club questions

The Movie Discovery Club was started to add an extra level of exclusivity to the already existing FilmCrave website. We saw a demand for more customer service, expert opinions and the ability to deliver great movies each month for a small fee.

The Movie Discovery Club is an exclusive movie club for people who want to expand their movies they have seen as well as bring value to their movie collection (or start a new one). Our club is the only movie club that gives you the greatest DVD editions available while at the same time giving you a movie specific to your tastes and preferences. The Movie Discovery Club is the definitive movie club on the internet.

The current market for Blu-Ray movies is under 10% of all DVD sales. We will continue to monitor market trends and introduce new clubs as the demand increases. However, if you are interested in a Blu-Ray Club, please email us at info@moviediscoveryclub.com.

ImaJAN Media, LLC owns and operates the Movie Discovery Club (the same people who created FilmCrave.com). The leadership team is a bright group of people who understand not only technology (proven by the intricate workings of FilmCrave.com) and design, but also understand what you, as a consumer, demand in your movie watching experience.

At this time, the Movie Discovery Club is only available for residents of the United States of America. If you are an outside resident and are interested, please contact info@moviediscoveryclub.com. We recommend that you sign up for the basic FilmCrave membership, which is free and available to anyone.

If you are interested in past month selections, please email info@moviediscoveryclub.com.
