Film Opportunity

PLAY HOUSE is the rare opportunity to guarantee eyes on your product!

Visibility At A Low Price Point
• Play House is already financed, scheduled, and locked for a festival premiere with distribution in place. There’s no “maybe” about whether it will reach an audience.
• As an Ultra Low Budget feature capped at $300k, every dollar (or in-kind contribution) yields outsized on-screen presence compared to larger productions where placements get lost in the noise.

Creator-Led Team, Smart Casting
• Written and directed by filmmakers with a combined online following of 200k+, giving built-in marketing reach before release.
• Cast features rising talent with rapidly growing fan bases, giving brands early access to the industry’s next wave of famous faces.

Authentic Integration
• Every placement aligns with character behavior and plot logic. Nothing forced, nothing awkward.
• The grounded tone of the film allows real brands to fit seamlessly into the world.

Cross-Promotion Baked Into The Process
• Filmmakers’ social channels offer organic tie-ins: behind-the-scenes looks, product cameos, on-set shoutouts, etc.
• Festival appearance and distribution provide additional moments for brand visibility throughout marketing and PR.

Core Audience
• Appeals directly to Millennials and Gen Z navigating housing stress and relationship instability – our characters mirror their reality of “adulting” in a broken economy.
• Combines elevated horror with the analog, lost-media vibe that VHS collectors and horror aesthetes obsess over.
• Humor threaded through the tension broadens reach to general streaming audiences who want character-driven genre stories, not just jumpscares.

Genre Positioning
• Sits in the same microbudget sweet spot that turned Skinamarink, Obsession, and The Undertone – all microbudget films that sold for over 7 figures – into breakout hits with distinctive voices and massive ROI.
• Leverages a high concept hook, intimate scale, and creator-driven marketing to slot naturally into the current wave of low-budget horror success.

Distribution Pathway
• Filming in Los Angeles late January through mid February 2026 with a locked timeline and delivery schedule.
• World premiere set for Fantastic Fest in September 2026, positioning the film directly in front of genre press that drives discovery.
• Planned international festival run beginning Fall 2026, maximizing global exposure and repeat press cycles.
• Targeted limited theatrical release projected for late 2026, followed by VOD and streaming – rights negotiations to begin mid to late 2026.

Social Visibility
• Consistent behind-the-scenes content highlighting partner products across social media.
• Cast and crew are young, digitally fluent, and actively engaged with dedicated fanbases – an audience that amplifies anything they touch.

Genre Impact
• Horror audiences are high-engagement repeat watchers who boost trailers, breakdowns, and speculation content.
• Based on comparable microbudget titles with festival heat, Play House is expected to generate strong social impressions, viral clips, and sustained online chatter across the horror ecosystem.

• Log Line: When a young man buys a dilapidated house with the intention of fixing it up to prove to his ex he can be a serious adult, he discovers VHS tapes of an unaired children’s show in the basement. While at first it just seems like a disturbing DIY Sesame Street, revelations about the show’s dark origins quickly derail his attempts to repair his home and relationship.

Penumbra Entertainment is currently shooting a feature film in the Middle Tennessee area and is looking for product placement in exchange for some form of production assistance. There are two main scenes that naturally lend themselves to placement of an alcohol brand, preferably a whisky, vodka or other spirit. 

In the first scene, life is good and a group of friends enjoy a casual drink. At the end of the film, the last few standing in full panic mode take long swigs of the alcohol they brought with them to the cabin. The use of the product on screen will reflect positively on the brand chosen.

Half of the film is complete and samples of the quality of work can be shared with those companies who are interested in product placement in a feature film.

Please email chris@penumbra-ent.com if you would like to discuss the possibilities.

Canned Food and Shelf Stable Foods, Toothpaste/Hygiene Items, Medical-Band-Aids/Gauze, Survivalist Books/Manuals, Camping/Outdoors Clothing & Equipment.- After a tragic event that claims the life of her husband and son, EDEE HOLZER (main character) retreats from society and moves to the wilderness in Wyoming to live off the land. She brings a 6 month supply of some dried goods and canned goods (shelf stable foods) to sustain her as well as hygiene items, camping clothing/equipment and a plethora of survival guides, books and manuals so she can learn how to live alone in the wilderness. She looses some food due to a bear going through her kitchen and store house, eventually runs out of food and almost starves. A neighbour, MIGUEL, eventually nurtures her to health and starts bringing her regular provisions. 

As Miguel and Edee become friends they share a bonding moment over a Root Beer.

In a flashback scene, Edee is in her upscale Chicago apartment post-tragedy and she is depressed wondering what she has to live for. Her kitchen shows signs of her mental state with food wrappers laying around, spoiled food and spills on the counter.
