Update on Specialty Cinema Releases

Greetings HHSE Friends & Followers - While most of the air in the room is being consumed with the massive launch this month of "DANCIN' IT'S ON" - there's still a lot happening with the Company's core video business, as well as with SPECIALTY RELEASES.  Here's a quick snapshot of a few of the current / upcoming titles (but not all of them!):

BONOBOS: BACK TO THE WILD - Continues in limited theatrical release.  Currently "held-over" in PORTLAND at the Regal Division St. Stadium 13 (check out today's ranking, # 2 behind MARTIAN, but ahead of HOTEL TRANSYLVANIA and all others!!).  Still on deck for BONOBOS is SAN DIEGO (this weekend, including the SAN DIEGO FILM FESTIVAL), as well as DALLAS-FORT WORTH and LOS ANGELES.




THE ALGERIAN has performed in the top tier at each location it's played (never ranked below # 3 among all titles at the multiplexes, during it's opening weekend in each city!).  As a result, the film will enjoy a modest "simultaneous" release expansion on Oct. 23 to these cities:

DMA MARKET
3 Chicago
4 Philadelphia
5 Dallas-Ft. Worth
7 Boston Metro
9 Atlanta
10 Houston
11 Phoenix
12 Detroit Metro
13 Tampa St. Petersburg
15 Minneapolis-St. Paul
16 Miami-Ft. Lauderdale
17 Denver
18 Orlando-Daytona Beach
20 Sacramento-Modesto
21 St. Louis
22 Pittsburgh, PA
25 Raleigh-Durham

ENCOUNTER opens December 4 - as counter-programming to the holiday fluff fare that will dominate the Thanksgiving and Christmas seasons.  The film is slated to open in approximately 30 theatres, including 8 of the top 10 largest DMA markets.  Here's the First Teaser Poster, and a link to the First Teaser Trailer below!

HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND!



Synopsis:
Ted McBride (Justin Arnold) and his new wife Lauren (Andrea Nelson) move to the country to film his thesis project, a study to investigate atmospheric phenomena commonly known as “orbs”. Ted soon realizes that he and Lauren are being stalked and affected in strange and frightening ways by the same force that drove Jim out of his mind. In the exciting conclusion of the film, Ted and Lauren fight to save each other and escape the evil that they have discovered that now stalks them.

Reminiscent of Paranormal Activity and Conjuring, Encounter is an intense, horror, supernatural thriller with a female human egg harvest by aliens story twist, as inspired by true events.
