All Interactive has also picked up rights to the Australian film Blackwater from London-based AV Pictures. The crocodile thriller that was written and directed by Andrew Traucki and David Nerlich and the company expects to release it locally in November.
'We want straight-down-the-line mainstream product rather than arthouse films,' said sales and acquisitions manager Kim Berwick. She said that going into theatrical and DVD distribution was a natural progression for the company, which was established in 1994 and up to now has principally handled the manufacture and dispatch of films and games for other companies.
She agreed that the market is crowded but said she was excited by the films that they have already acquired.
