Big Screen's ''Babysitter Wanted'' to Scare Audiences in Germany
March 25, 2008 -- Big Screen Entertainment Group’s horror thriller “Babysitter Wanted” has been invited to screen at the 12th annual “Weekend of Fear” film festival May 2-3 in Nuremberg, Germany.
Weekend of Fear is a “cult” festival for all fans and makers of horror, thriller and science fiction films. Former guests of the festival include Peter Jackson, Joerg Buttgereit, Lloyd Kaufman, Olaf Ittenbach, Timo Rose, Uwe Boll, Paul Spurrier and many more.
“We think the Weekend of Fear is a perfect place to showcase ‘Babysitter Wanted’,” said Big Screen Entertainment Group CEO Kimberley Kates. “Having the film screen at Weekend of Fear a few weeks before unveiling the completed 35mm print at this year’s Cannes International Film Market will certainly increase German exposure and should help our sales across Europe.”
LionsGate UK recently purchased “Babysitter Wanted” for the UK for release this fall.
“Babysitter Wanted” will also screen at the Horrorfest in Denver, Colorado from April 18-20. The festival runs in conjunction with the STARFEST Sci-Fi convention. Nana Visitor is one of the film’s stars.
STARFEST is honoring Nana Visitor, as well as the 15th anniversary of “Star Trek: Deep Space Nine.” For seven years, Nana played second in command Major Kira Nerys on that show.
“We’re honored to be a part of this festival, and to showcase Nana’s talents by screening ‘Babysitter Wanted’,” said Big Screen Entertainment Group president David Zappone.
“Babysitter Wanted” stars Sarah Thompson (Seventh Heaven), Matt Dallas (Kyle XY), Bruce Thomas (Legally Blonde), Kristen Dalton (The Departed), Nana Visitor (Star Trek:DSN), Monty Bane (Sleepwalkers) and Bill Moseley (The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Devil’s Rejects). The film was directed by BSEG’s Michael Manasseri and Original Film’s Jonas Barnes.
