Invest in the UK’s Only Horror-Focused Studio Built for Returns

Horror is one of the most reliable and profitable genres in film. It travels globally, performs strongly on streaming, and can generate outsized returns from disciplined budgets. Backmask Pictures is building the UK’s only major studio focused solely on capturing that opportunity.

Why Backmask Pictures is Positioned to Win:

Film One already in pre-production
Our debut feature film is actively progressing, with strong cast attachments and key production partners engaged. This means investor capital goes into execution and growth, not speculative development.

Film One already has distribution secured
We have a deal in place with Hanway Films for our debut feature. In film, distribution is what turns a completed project into revenue. Securing this early materially reduces risk and accelerates route-to-market.

Experienced founders with commercial expertise
Backmask Pictures is led by founders with proven backgrounds in sales, marketing, audience growth and brand building - critical skills often missing in independent film businesses.

Award-winning creative track record
We have already created acclaimed film content and know how to develop stories that cut through in a crowded market.

Modern direct-to-audience revenue model
We also have an agreement with Olyn, enabling us to sell directly to audiences, own customer relationships, and unlock additional revenue beyond traditional release models.
