Hi there
I am writing to you to invite you to the screening of STAGKNIGHT at Cannes.
A finely crafted $3million indie satire with great historical Arthurian
story, really hot babes, legendary kills and a strong UK comedy cast.
Ten guys head out to a remote English forest for a paintball bachelor party.
They unwittingly summon a giant Arthurian knight who picks them off in
spectacular fashion.
The film has a few major selling points:
* Consider the title "Stagknight" every 25-35 year old guy either has
been or will go on a bachelor party and most 16-24 year old males have a
strong curious desire to attend one. The theme is positive and universal.
* We have placed five top 100 internet youth sites into the film. In
return these sites post Stagknight news, video and pictures fortnightly.
These sites collectively receive over 2 billion hits a year mainly from teen
males. We have got millions of hits on our site through their links.
* Stagknight is a comedy horror in the same vein as Sean of the Dead,
please Google Stagknight to see the vast plethora of online horror sites
supporting us, they’re huge, well-informed, their users are dedicated and buy and
see everything horror and have a strong awareness of the film.
* Stagknight features paintball! Last year in 104 countries 37 million
males aged 16-40 played paintball. It is the third biggest X sport behind
inline-skating and snowboarding. Were working with the President of the
World Paintball Cup to promote Stagknight to this vast community.
We are screening 24th May at 22:00 in the Palais de Festival (D) and on the
25th May at 14:00 and 18:00 in the Hotel Gray d'Albion (Gray 1). Please let
us know which screening you would be able to attend.
Also we will be in Cannes from 22nd – 27th May and welcome the opportunity
to arrange an appointment now.

Dear Friends,
Welcome to Happy Together Film & TV with our exciting world-premiering
lineup at Cannes 2006!
We are thrilled to debut the very first two feature films from the newly
launched label "JAPANESE BREAKTHROUGH FILMS" by BS-i and King Records: The
Curse of Nobuhiro-san and Love on Sunday. Director Keisuke Toyoshima mixes
the traditional Japanese ghost stories with Neo-Hitchcockian suspense to
create a new brand of J-Break horror--a unique, dazzling approach that sets
it apart from all other horrors! Love On Sunday, starting as 20 hit TV
romantic love stories, has just been made into a big screen feature film now
under the new label "Japanese Breakthrough Films."
As led by now-world-famous directors, Takashi Shimizu (The Grudge), Norio
Tsuruta (Ringu 0), and many other masterminds of J-horrors, the TALES of
TERROR anthology returns again with the all-new feature-length, The Haunted
Apartments and 33 more brand new episodes. Veteran director, Akio Yoshida,
brilliantly weaves multiple stories collected all over Japan into one
seamlessly produced 93 minute feature film.
Spanning the globe in search of exotic and extraordinary horror films, we
also are proud to present the distinctive selection of horror: 15th Door and
The House of Horror. The Seagate award-winning 15th Door is the world's
first film in the English language on the deadly power of Indian black magic
with stunning heavy CGI. From over 900 scripts entered into the Pan-Latin
America Script Competition, nine of the best-written horror stories were
adapted to produce the exclusive The House of Horror.
