LOS ANGELES, CA / February 18, 2014 / ACCESSWIRE
/ With a growing catalog of more than two-hundred feature film
and video programs, independent entertainment distributor Hannover
House (OTC: HHSE) is now harvesting revenue success with a newly
packaged release slate of multipack DVDs for the U.S. and Canadian
home video markets. Thematic assortments ranging from three to
ten full-length feature titles per DVD pack will begin hitting
retail shelves as early as March, reports Hannover House President,
Fred Shefte. Initial DVD multipacks include "The Jules Verne
Collection", "Family Movie Night", "Horror House" and the "Pappa
Cap Urban Six Pack."
"We have reached an important milestone in the size of our
catalog which enables multipack items to be readily prepared," said
Shefte. "Thematic DVD collections have proven to be extremely
popular, especially in the budget-bins of key mass merchants, and
Hannover plans to take a bite into this major market. This is
a lucrative strategy to generate new revenues from titles that have
already enjoyed their initial release success. The costs for
repackaging and marketing titles from our film library are
insignificant, but the sales from multipacks can be significant,"
he continued.
Three of the initial multipack releases from Hannover House will
be priced at $9.95 suggested retail, and are planned for placement
into the Walmart and Best Buy "budget bins" at $5.00 to $5.50 cost
to consumers. One of the initial multipacks is planned for
placement in the New Release shelves with a $14.95 suggested retail
list price.
The budget releases include: "Family Movie Night" - four,
previously successful "G" or "PG" rated family features ("Animal
Clinic", "Come Away Home", "Grand Champion" and "Savage Land");
"The Jules Verne Collection" - three, full-length animated features
based on the classic adventure tales ("20,000 Leagues Under the
Sea", "Around the World in 80-Days", "Journey to the Center of the
Earth"); and "Horror House" - six horror-thrillers including "Blood
Dancers", "The Deepening", "Dorm of the Dead", "Fearmakers", "Naked
Beneath the Waters" and "Zombie Apocalypse." All three of
these initial budget-collections will be priced at $9.95 suggested
retail, with targets set for mass merchant bin placement.
A collection of six urban-appeal action films and
street-documentaries will be released as the "Pappa Cap: Urban Six
Pack" and priced at $14.95 suggested retail. The titles in
this urban collection include: "Chicago Streets", "Exclusive
Street Battles", "Hip Hop Rewind", "Life After Death Row", "Tha
Real Hustle & Flow" and "Whatz Really Hood."
Hannover House plans to release a total of twelve, multipack DVD
assortments to the retail home video market during 2014. The
company schedule indicates that there will be four each of
collections in the genre's of action, family, horror and
urban. Previously released multipack assortments for Hannover
House included: "Classic Television", "Comedy Classics", "Martial
Arts Action Pack" and "The Samurai Action Pack." Each of those
four assortments were successfully merchandised through the Walmart
"Budget Bins" and generated an average of $683,000 in gross revenue
per collection for Hannover House.
Hannover House management will present a multifaceted release
stategy to shareholders at the company's annual meeting this
Friday, said Shefte. The budget-bin-priced DVD assortments
will be complemented with an aggressive slate of new release home
video titles and a slate of event-level "locomotive" theatrical
releases. This scheduling strategy is designed to maximize
revenues and bottom line results for Hannover House while
positioning the company to rapidly ascend into the status of a
major independent studio.
