Distribution Company

For our Distribution Company we chose Lionsgate as we believe it appeals more to our target audience, males and females under the age of 25.The majority of their films they distribute are aimed at adults and are responsible for distributing films such as: The Hunger Games, The Divergent Series and The Twilight Saga all which appeal to our target audience. These films usually attract teenagers between the ages of 15 and 18 so therefore would be suitable for distributing our film, which also targets the same type of people. They also known for distributing horror films such as American Psycho, Saw and My Bloody Valentine which is the genre we have chosen for our opening sequence. These films are 

also targeted at those around 18 so will more than likely be attracted to our own. 

American Psycho stars Christian Bale as Patrick Bateman who lives a second life as a serial killer.

The Saw series revolves around a sadistic serial killer who captures people and makes them complete extreme challenges in order to survive.

My Bloody Valentine is about a man who wakes up ten years after being put into a coma and hunts down the person who caused his accident.

This is one of the headers on the official Lionsgate website, it is advertising for the upcoming film from the Divergent series: Allegiant. This targets teens and young adults which is also our target audience, so is best suited for our film. 

The site also contains films that have already been released some which share the same target audience as ours. For example, The Hunger Games which is a film that is aimed at teens.

You're Next is a horror film distributed by Lionsgate, which therefore shows that Lionsgate is appropriate for us to use for our distribution company as they appeal to both fans of horror films and teens, our target audience.
