LOS ANGELES, CA--(Marketwired - Oct 12, 2017) - Bridgegate Pictures Corporation (
THE RECALL is now also available for rent at more than 43,000 Redbox kiosks nationwide. Redox is America's leading destination for affordable, new release movie and video game rentals.
Bridgegate Pictures Corporation's President Guy Griffithe said, "Redbox averages about 39 million DVD rentals per day. 94% of Americans have heard of Redbox and 59% have used it. We are tremendously excited to have THE RECALL available to movie fans in such a tremendous distribution venue."
"We are thrilled with the distribution deals we have secured with Amazon and Redbox," added Kevin DeWalt, CEO and Producer at Minds Eye Entertainment. "While our theatrical distribution was geared toward VR enthusiasts and early technology adopters, our deals with both partners will now allow us to deliver this unique film to the masses."
Directed by Mauro Borelli, whose visual artist credits include the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise and Star Wars, Episode VIII, THE RECALL stars Wesley Snipes and Breaking Bad's R.J. Mitte.
A group of friends vacationing at a remote cabin lake house encounter an alien attack and are forced to rely on an eccentric and mysterious hunter (Wesley Snipes) with special knowledge of the alien encounter.
THE RECALL premiered in June 2017 with a 2 week exclusive in Barco Escape's panoramic, multi-screen theaters across North America. The film broke new ground for immersive cinema experiences as the first movie shot natively for Barco Escape to release in theaters. Portions of the film were also shot in Virtual Reality to create Abduction, a 12-minute Virtual Reality short featuring Snipes that brings audiences into an alien invasion through the eyes of co-star R.J. Mitte's character. Following the VR release and a two-week exclusive theatrical window in Barco Escape, THE RECALL opened in select 2D theaters.
Minds Eye Entertainment produced THE RECALL in association with Bridgegate Pictures Corp, VMI Worldwide and Invico Capital Corporation. Freestyle Releasing is handling North American distribution and VMI Worldwide is distributing internationally.
