About Vineyard
Genre: Horror/Thriller
Theme: Reconciliation/Redemption
One year after the death of her father, Jana Davies travels to a picturesque summer house to attend a family wedding, where she must face the guilt over her father's death, and a malicious and violent spirit which haunts the summer house and threatens her entire family. After surviving a horrible car crash, which resulted in the death of her father, thirty-something Jana Davies must return home one year later to attend a bittersweet family wedding. Upon arrival, the summer house seems too good to be true. But when it comes to her family, there seems to be nothing but fake smiles and looks of judgment. The guilt of surviving that fatal car crash weighs hard upon Jana's shoulders. The reunion and prenuptial planning take a turn for the worst when Jana and her family begin to realize that perhaps they're not the only ones inhabiting the house. Footsteps, whispers, uninvited bed guests, eerie reflections and an ominous figure in the woods that appears to want in. After unveiling the mystery surrounding the summer house and the origins behind the creature in the woods Jana realizes that running from a threat, like she had after that fatal accident, isn't an option this time. It's time to stay and fight!

The Horror Market
"Fans are often surprised to discover that horror is the most profitable film genre & the best investment studios can make." - Mark Zucker, President, Sony Pictures, 2015. Horror is a genre that never goes out of style. Horror films provide the best risk/reward ratio in the movie industry, and often enjoy box office success and video/DVD sales without major stars. They have lower budgets than other genres, and they have a loyal audience in the most desirable demographic (18-35 year old males). Low-budget horror movies are a major economic force within the film industry. The Blair Witch Project grossed over $200 million, Saw took in over $100 million, and Cabin Fever has already grossed over $60 million in all markets. All of these films were produced for under $200 thousand dollars. Global Box Office revenues for the entire industry are projected to grow US$10 billion between 2000 and 2010 to US$18 billion, according to Variety Magazine and Hollywood Reporter. The National Association of Theater Owners (NATO) reported annual domestic ticket sales of $7.5 billion by the end of the past decade, a 55 percent increase since 1990. Total Admissions were $1.6 billion, an increase of over 25 percent over the same period. Looking at 810 independently produced, low budget ($100,000 to $1.5 million) U.S. & Canadian domestic released features during the period of 2012 - 2015, the horror films generally enjoyed the most profitable return on investment averaging 140%. This research was limited to films budgeted between $100,000.00 to $1.5 million with the assumption that roughly 60% of the overall production budgets were equity financed. The horror genre is alive and kicking. From 1995 to 2014, horror films have had a 13.15 percent box office market share. And according to a Redbox survey of moviegoers, 70 percent watched a scary movie last Halloween. Studios love to take on these low-budget projects, hoping to find the next generation-defining scare. If worse comes to worst, they can be content to simply make their money back several times over.
