These are the main releases coming up this year, as advertisers on a new product this shows our team that there is in fact a market for our product especially during the late spring/early summer period where there is lack of horror releases. Research has also shown that there is a large gross income to gain, particularly from the United States which makes up more than half the income for most releases this year therefore making it an ideal location for release. As there has already been a zombie themed horror movie released earlier this year it would be suggested that our teams film would not be released till early August, to gain most interest, or later in the winter season of the year.
