In the run-up to Cannes Toronto genre specialist Raven Banner has landed sales rights to the upcoming Shudder original sequel Scare Package II: Rad Chad’s Revenge produced and directed by creator Aaron B. Koontz with Paper Street Pictures.
Raven Banner will present select clips to buyers at the market on the project, which is in post and is also being produced by Cameron Burns, Ashleigh Snead, Alex Euting and Shawn Talley for Paper Street. Alexandra Barreto, Jed Shepherd, Rachele Wiggins and Anthony Cousins have stepped into the anticipated sequel as segment directors.
Koontz negotiated the deal with Raven Banner’s James Fler and Michael Paszt.
The company has also boarded worldwide rights to Brazilian stoner action comedy The Smoke Master from Andre Sigwalt and Augusto Soares. The film recently closed Brazil’s Fantaspoa genre festival and tells of two brothers and a fistful of friends who face down the Chinese mafia. Sigwalt and Soares concluded the deal with Raven Banner’s Michael Da Silva.
Raven Banner’s Cannes market slate includes Fantastic Fest paranoia thriller Alone With You from writer-directors Emily Bennett and Justin Brooks, Pablo Parés’s Argentinian horror PussyCake, and Danishka Esterhazy’s reimagining of 1982 slasher cult classic, Slumber Party Massacre.
