Flixster, a movie listings and ratings startup, has lined up $12.5 million in new funding from investors, according to regulatory documents.
San Francisco-based Flixster's funding comes after the company last month agreed to acquire movie reviews company Rotten Tomatoes from Rupert Murdoch's News Corp for an undisclosed sum.
The third-round cash injection follows a $5 million round in 2008 and a $2 million round from Lightspeed Venture Partners in 2007.
Founded in 2005, Flixster is a popular application among Facebook users as well as on Apple's iPhone and also has an apps presence on Android-based mobile phones, Palm Pre, and BlackBerry devices. Flixster's mobile application lets people find showtimes near their location on GPS phones, check reviews from Rotten Tomatoes and other sources, watch movie trailers, and buy tickets via Movietickets.com.
The Flixster funding, disclosed Monday in U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission documents, did not cite specific venture investors.
