According to reports, more than 250 movie theaters (and counting) have pulled "Gosnell" from their screens, even though the film has grossed more than $2.5 million since it opened on October 12.
Why is "Gosnell" being targeted for destruction, you're probably asking? If you're not already familiar with its content, the film tells the disturbing story of Kermit Gosnell, the infamous Philadelphia abortionist who was sentenced to life in prison for first degree murder after he ended the lives of three newly-born babies, as well as the life of one of his patients.
Dubbed the "house of horror," Gosnell's abortion clinic looked much like any other – a "women's health" center providing "female services" to the local community. But in the "Gosnell" film, this veneer of deception was peeled off, which is why it received little attention from the mainstream media, and even had its advertising banned both from Facebook and NPR.
"This movie really exposes something that the Left does not want to report about," Nick Searcy, the director of "Gosnell," told PJ Media. "They're basically trying to ignore this movie. They're trying to say that it doesn't exist because they don't want to have a discussion about abortion."

Abortion is one of the Left Cult's unholy "sacraments"
The reason why the Left is pretending that the "Gosnell" film doesn't even exist is because its members consider abortion a taboo subject whenever any discussion of it occurs without their permission. The Left Cult regards murder of the unborn to be one of its religious "sacraments" – a form of homage and worship to the god of liberalism, meaning it's off limits to critics.
That's why "Gosnell," despite drawing huge crowds and plenty of support, is being pulled left and right from Hollywood theaters. Even though theaters are profiting from the film, they're obviously kowtowing to the demands of leftists who obviously think they own the rights to the abortion narrative.
Never before has a film that's garnered as much support and revenue as "Gosnell" been removed from the theater lineup like this, which just goes to show how influential the Left Cult is in getting its way.
"We're in uncharted territories," John Sullivan, the film's marketing director, is quoted as saying to The Daily Wire. "The fact that we've been dropped from theaters where the move is the number six or number nine movie is just something you don't see."
Not only have theaters been dropping "Gosnell" for no apparent reason, but Sullivan says he's been hearing reports that some theaters are lying to potential ticket-buyers, telling them that the film is "sold out" when there are still plenty of empty seats.
"It's hard not to believe it isn't about the content of the movie," he added.
"They've been dropping it after it's been really successful in that particular theater," says Phelim McAleer, co-author of the book on which "Gosnell" is based.
"It doesn't make any business sense at all. I suppose it makes political sense for Hollywood."
According to McAleer, not a single mainstream movie reviewer has watched "Gosnell," and most of the usual suspects in print and online media have similarly rejected it.
"The only mainstream media coverage was 400 words in the Los Angeles Times," McAleer told PJ Media.
