Cinedigm Corp (NASDAQ:CIDM) president and chief strategy officer Erick Opeka and Brad Miska, managing director of Bloody Disgusting and Scream Box, join Proactive's Stephen Gunnion to share the success of horror phenomenon Terrifier 2.
Miska telling Proactive that while he realized early on that the movie was the next 'slasher masterpiece', after the opening weekend it was clear that it would be a big hit, resulting in a near doubling in its screen count to more than 1,500 screens for Halloween weekend.
Opeka says horror is one of the most popular genres among fans, resulting in Cinedigm's multiple investments in horror - from purchasing Screambox and Bloody Disgusting in 2021 to one-off acquisitions such as Terrifier.
