Why screen gems?
The reason we chose screen gems to distribute our movies are because:
Screen gems has made and distributed several movies similar to the codes and conventions we are following in our movies. mainly slashers distributed by screen gems have female victims stalked by psychotic stalkers (antagonist). For example movies such as 'When a stranger calls' by Simon west, the protagonist a female shown clueless at first but then faces the dilemma and at the end takes down the antagonist by either killing him or sending him to jail.
Screen gems has mostly been profitable in distributing mainstream horror suspense films. Our movie is also mainstream and movies distributed by screen gems with similar codes and conventions have grossed approximately far more than the invested money for example the cost in prom night was 20 million while the revenue generated was 57 million
with screen gems as our distributor we can reach to our designated audience as the movies made by screen gems are usually targeted towards adolescents and adults in in the age group of 20-35 years who like to watch horror/slasher
movies made by screen gems represent everyday problems along with uncommon but potentially captivating conflicts For example, the Lakeview Terrace by Neil LaBute shows an abusive officer terrorizing his neighbors who are inter racially married. Another example 'In the Cut' directed by Jane Campion focuses on a college English professor (Ryan) who becomes entangled with a detective (Ruffalo) investigating a series of gruesome murders in her Manhattan neighborhood.
Screen gems is an ideal media house for us as screen gems is very much likely to purchase and distribute our movies and most of the movies to the audience we want to represent and have targeted.
