BLUMHOUSE
PRODUCTIONS’ BH TILT PARTNERS WITH ELI ROTH AND UNIVERSAL PICTURES TO
RELEASE
THE GREEN INFERNO
In
collaboration with Universal and High Top, BHT Creates Unique Marketing and
Distribution Strategy to Bring Long Awaited Film to Theaters
(Los
Angeles, California, June 1, 2015) BH Tilt, Blumhouse Productions’ label
dedicated to creating tailored distribution strategies for genre films, will
release Eli Roth’s The Green Inferno on September 25, 2015 in collaboration with Universal Pictures and High Top
Releasing, a label dedicated to servicing high quality movies using Focus
Features’ distribution capabilities. The companies will debut The Green Inferno on approximately
1,000 screens and promote the film by employing a targeted digital campaign
focused on creating awareness and engagement among genre fans.
“The
Green Inferno is
a wild, fun ride that took us deeper into the Amazon than anyone has ever taken
a film crew,” said Roth. “BH Tilt is a forward thinking label that is helping
to redefine how genre movies can be released. I want to express my deep
gratitude to the fans for their incredible support of this movie and to
everyone at Blumhouse and Universal for making sure fans can experience the
film in theaters across the country.”
Jason
Blum said: “When we launched BH Tilt we said our goal was to be part of the
continuing evolution of distribution, whether it is through changing marketing
strategies, changing revenue sources or changing windows. We are excited to
capitalize on new developments in distribution and marketing to bring Eli’s movie
to horror lovers across the country.”
In The Green Inferno, a group of student
activists travels to the Amazon to save the rain forest and soon discover that
they are not alone, and that no good deed goes unpunished.
Blumhouse,
which has a 10-year first-look production agreement with Universal Pictures,
specializes in micro-budget genre movies. The company, whose franchises have
grossed more than $1.4 billion worldwide, gives directors creative freedom to
make the movies they want. Given their low-budgets, the films can be
distributed and marketed both traditionally and in new ways.
