Recently, an American low-cost bad film director successfully entered the author’s line of sight: Christopher Forbes (Christopher Forbes), he produced a total of four small-cost war movies in 2019, namely the American Civil War theme "The Birth of Rebellion" "(A Rebel Born) and "American Confederate" (American Confederate), as well as "Greyhound Attack" (Greyhound Attack) and "Rocket Hunter" (Rocket Hunter) in World War II. How low is the quality of these movies? "Greyhound Attack" can be called the world's worst World War II movie of 2019 (excluding Chinese anti-Japanese drama).
"Greyhound Attack" and "Rocket Hunter" are exactly the same posters
At the same time, I noticed that these films are not listed in theaters, but are sold on DVD or online. I wonder which small company started. Obsessed with the shooting of such a super bad movie? Since there is less information about film production companies available on the Internet, I spent a lot of effort to find the production company of these films: ITN Distribution (ITN Distribution).
ITN Distribution claims to be an independent film production and distribution company. So far, its film library has more than 500 self-made films, and it can release up to 96 new films worldwide each year. Audiences can rent out discs from major retailers in North America. The company’s products can be found in stores and global networks, digital TV, VOD and DVD markets. The author is a little skeptical about the annual output of 96 films. First, even if the company's production is poor, such a high production capacity is still a bit questionable. Second, there are only about 20 films of the company that can be found on IMDB.
"The Birth of Rebellion" and "Confederation of America"
maybe because other bad films are not even eligible for IMDB? I searched another forum and wrote that the company can release two movies every month. This number is obviously much more reliable. As a small-cost film company, the company’s initial works were small-cost horror, science fiction and western films. The director Christopher Forbes mentioned at the beginning, his previous works were all western films, and this is probably him The reason for making the American Civil War film.
ITN Distribution claims to be able to participate in twelve international film festivals each year, including Cannes Film Festival, Busan Asian Film Festival, etc., but I have never seen them on Douban. I don’t know what the company said. What is the state of participation in the event? In addition to the American Civil War series and the World War II series, the historical war series produced by ITN Distribution also includes the Viking history series. So far, the series has released "Viking Blood" and "The Viking War". Viking War). How bad are the films produced by
"Viking Blood" and "Viking War"
ITN Distribution? Children's shoes who have seen the trailers of "Greyhound Attack" and "Rocket Hunter" should have a deep understanding. In these trailers, the total number of actors (including group performances) does not exceed ten, and most of the scenes are inexplicable indoor dialogues. , But the interior layout is extremely simple, and various movie websites give them the lowest scores. I really don’t know how the company makes a profit by selling DVDs.
