Steve Barton is a film producer from NY who also happened to co-found Dread Central. His life has been a constant ever-changing dance for success and he's been steadily progressing throughout all the pitfalls that tried to break up his course. He's been an editor, a writer, an interviewer, a critic and a colleague. His profound love for horror and its community has always kept him hard at work at numerous projects at any given moment, but his support to the indie-filmmaking art form couldn't possibly go unnoticed.
Terrifier 2 has now reached $10 million at the box office on a $250,000 budget and Steve is the man that made the deal with Cinedigm to help get it distributed to all your local theaters. We chatted about the accidental marketing that took place, which he and the rest of the Terrifier crew had nothing to do with, and how this boost in social media engagement led to a world-wide Art the Clown cult. Steve also gives great industry advice to hopeful filmmakers and why you should never have backup plans if you're wishing to focus on your dream passion.
There's still time to see Terrifer 2 in your local movie theater - get there now! The film is meant to be seen with a packed audience. It's also streaming NOW on Screambox. Blu-ray comes out in December with exclusive editions dropping at Walmart and Best Buy, which you can pre-order NOW!
