Acclaimed new theatrical film from Hannover House to be showcased to Retail Video Buyers
LOS ANGELES, Oct. 25, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Next week's edition of Home Media Magazine – the leading publication for video retailers, buyers and industry executives – will showcase the critically praised title, "Toys in the Attic" on its cover. The acclaimed, animated feature film is from independent studio Hannover House (OTC: HHSE), and represents one of the few times in recent years that a non-major-studio released film has been featured on the Home Media cover.
"This is an extremely exciting opportunity for Hannover House and 'Toys in the Attic'" said CEO Eric Parkinson. "Placement on the cover sends a message to retailers that 'Toys in the Attic' is a film with major home video rental and sell-through potential. Instantly reaching nearly one-hundred-percent of all retail video buyers, this premiere positioning of the title with the industry's leading publication is the best way to announce the forthcoming home video release and to maximize retail support."
Home Media Magazine (formerly known as Video Store Magazine) has been publishing since 1983, and covers the retail video marketplace, video-on-demand and game distribution. With home video sales constituting the majority of bottom-line revenues for the major studios, the magazine's cover each week is reserved almost exclusively for major studio hits. Recent covers include: "The Avengers", "The Expendibles 2" and a 90th Anniversary Cover for Warner Brothers Studios.
In addition to the front cover placement for "Toys in the Attic," the Hannover House promotion also includes the inside front cover. Titles featured on the inside cover include prominent placement for "Toys in the Attic," with box-art and listings for five titles and "coming soon" listing designation for seven additional titles. Programs featured with box art in addition to "Toys in the Attic" include: "An Inconsistent Truth", "Borrar de la Memoria", "The Weather Station", "Deceptz" and the holiday-themed feature "Upon a Midnight Clear."

"Toys in the Attic" was launched to theatres beginning September 7, 2012, and continues in limited release to art house theatres and festivals through December. The film was meticulously animated by legendary Czech director Jiri Barta, using a combination of stop-motion, multi-plane, hand-drawn and CGI techniques. The English-adaptation was written, produced and directed by Vivian Schilling, and features the voice talent of Forest Whitaker, Joan Cusack and Cary Elwes.
The film will be released to Home Video and Video-On-Demand formats February 5, 2013, with a pre-order date for packaged goods items (DVD, Blu-Ray) of December 18, 2012. Hannover House reports that initial retail reception to the film has been very good.
