German-based Beta previously acquired two other National Lampoon films including National Lampoon's Bagboy and handles the films in Germany, Spain, Italy, and Eastern Europe. Beta has just broadened its territory agreement to include France and South Africa.
National Lampoon recently signed multi-picture distribution deals for Canada with Equinoxe, Middle East with Front Row, Australia with Force Entertainment and Russia with Lizard Cinema Trade.
All original National Lampoon productions will be released in the US through National Lampoon Releasing and the company is in talks with studio distributors.
'We are delighted to be expanding our relationship with Beta,' National Lampoon's president of worldwide distribution Tom Daniels said. 'I look upon this expansion as a sign of good faith from international buyers in our original National Lampoon features.'
