TCM Underground is a weekly late-night cult film showcase airing on Turner Classic Movies. Developed by former TCM marketing director Eric Weber, it was originally hosted by industrial rock/heavy metal musician and independent filmmaker Rob Zombie. TCM Underground began airing Friday the 13th of October 2006 with Plan 9 from Outer Space and Bride of the Monster. The series is periodically pre-empted by special month-long or seasonal scheduling themes, such as February's \"31 Days of Oscar\" film series and the month-long \"Summer Under the Stars\". When it does not conflict with a special theme, TCM Underground airs in its usual slot at 2:00 AM. The movies were programmed by Eric Weber until 2007 when TCM programmer Millie De Chirico took over the role. Promotional bumper material and opening credit sequences were created by Raygun.\n\nThe series was launched in an attempt to attract more young viewers to Turner's older-skewing audience.
