8. After the research I have gathered on different studios, I have chosen to
have my film distributed by Lionsgate Entertainment.
I think Lionsgate would be perfect because they specialize in Horror and
Thriller genres, so they have a lot of experience and people will typically
go to Lionsgate films to watch when choosing thriller films, because they
are very well known and popular.
Also, because they are smaller than other studios such as Paramount,
it’ll give me more freedom with what I chose and also mean there’s more
of a chance of it being adapted according to my decisions.
