What kind of media institution might distribute your media product and why?

New Line Cinema is an institution which could distribute our opening as they have distributed other thrillers in our market research, i.e. Seven, The Number 23.  They could distribute our opening because there are elements of Seven in our opening for example the close ups of Beth's hands.  Since Seven was successful, New Line Cinema would be tempted to distribut Behind Closed Doors as well as it may turn out to be successful too.

Screen Gems Pictures distributed Prom Night and Obsessed.  Obsessed is similar to Behind Closed Doors in regards to the drama element of both being films based on relationships and the theme of obsession, so Screen Gems could produce ours as well.  Recently, Screen Gems have released 'The Roommate' which is a thriller/drama about a college student who finds out that her roommate has an obsession with her that turns violent. This is similar to our opening in many ways, so seeing that this was recent there would be a high chance that they would release ours too.
