What's Happening?
Motion Picture Exchange (MPX) is set to launch worldwide sales for the slasher film 'Big Baby' at the European Film Market in Berlin. The film is directed by Spider One, who is also the frontman of the rock band Powerman 5000 and the brother of Rob Zombie. Cher serves as the executive producer. 'Big Baby' follows a horror screenwriter, Adam Lewis, whose script about a killer in a baby mask begins to manifest in real life. The film stars Brandon Scott, Krsy Fox, and Chaz Bono, among others. Spider One and Krsy Fox's OneFox Productions produced the film, with MPX co-founder Ryan Bury praising its unique and bold approach to the slasher genre.

drawing fans from both industries. The film's launch at a major market like the European Film Market indicates confidence in its international appeal. This project could influence future horror films by blending psychological elements with traditional slasher tropes, appealing to a broad audience. The involvement of high-profile figures like Cher may also attract attention to the film, potentially boosting its commercial success and setting a precedent for similar collaborations in the entertainment industry.
What's Next?
As 'Big Baby' enters the European Film Market, its reception will be crucial in determining its distribution and success. Positive feedback could lead to widespread international distribution, while any critical acclaim might influence future projects by Spider One and Cher. The film's performance could also impact MPX's strategy in acquiring and promoting similar genre films. Additionally, the film's unique approach may inspire other filmmakers to explore unconventional narratives within the horror genre.
