After previewing on day one, Cinema Halls burst at the seams with the film Buzz House The Movie. All theaters countrywide were sold out. Therefore, April 23 is deemed as the Buzz Day by movie industry representatives. This is Romania’s first horror comedy and it is based on an online show of the same name. It cost us one million euros for this project which succeeded again with Selly Media and Vidra Productions.
“We’ve had four successful seasons of online reality and we just felt like turning Buzz House into a big screen production. However impossible it seemed, we made something possible. We knew that some will love us while others would use any opportunity to criticize us. Nevertheless, we were confident that there would be much hype around it making people happy about it. It took all of us working together as a team; having known influencers acted as actors was one of the factors that contributed to its successful sales recipe. We hope to keep sales up and the film to stay in theaters for as long as possible,” says Andrei Șelaru (Selly), producer and actor of Buzz House.
Buzz House The Movie has broken other records too! In three months, from concept to screening: this was how much time took place between these two events. The writing process started and wrapped up in three weeks while pre-production was allocated two weeks only before they commenced filming within 21 days on set itself for post production also went on speedily thereafter so that within another month after end of principal photography at location ,the film was edited into final form.
“This record sale is proof for me personally what I have believed since my very first internet experience: people want to see their favorite content creators being chased through the woods by an ax murderer” My whole life I heard time and time again that there was no market in Romania for such things? And here it is appreciated thank you!” affirms Radu Alexandru, the screenwriter of Buzz House.
Buzz House The Movie is another project by Vidra Productions and the third film with actor/producer Andrei Șelaru (Selly).
“May ‘Buzz Day’ come every day after we saw more than 28 multiplexes and hundreds of screens turned into real ‘Buzz Houses’ for Romanian horror fans. Having had an incredible day, it is evident that Buzz House remains a must-see attraction within the realm of movies. Popcorn machines are still working out fine, so viewers have to book their favorite spots because they are in for a show,” stated Ioana Ionescu, Head of Marketing at Cinema City Romania.
The movie’s success continues the production company’s chain of successes which has seen seven out of ten top selling films in the past thirty years.
“Buzz House: The Movie has done something unexpected, namely, to make teenagers eager to stand in line, not for pictures or autographs, but for movie tickets. And not just any movie, one full of famous vloggers in an online show they would normally watch alone at home. For this reason perhaps it is even more impressive that there were so many groups of friends coming to Cineplexx in order to experience together on a larger screen what they used to see as part of a phenomenon called Buzz House,” says Cristina Miu Marketing Manager at Cineplexx.
Yesterday, on April 23rd was the premiere and the film had its gala premiere on April 22nd. Official entry into cinemas is scheduled for April 26th. Today marks the beginning of the caravan that will pass through five cities.
