Tickets on Sale Now for “Hardcore Henry: The Ultimate Fan Experience” in Select U.S. Cinemas

Hardcore Henry is one of the most unflinchingly original wild-rides to hit the big screen in a long time: You remember nothing. Mainly because you’ve just been brought back from the dead by your wife (Haley Bennett). She tells you that your name is Henry. Five minutes later, you are being shot at, your wife has been kidnapped and you should probably go get her back. Who’s got her? His name’s Akan (Danila Kozlovsky); he’s a powerful warlord with an army of mercenaries, and a plan for world domination. You’re also in an unfamiliar city of Moscow, and everyone wants you dead. Everyone except for a mysterious British fellow called Jimmy (Sharlto Copley). He may be on your side, but you aren’t sure. If you can survive the insanity, and solve the mystery, you might just discover your purpose and the truth behind your identity. Good luck, Henry. You’re likely going to need it…

Osiris Entertainment Teams with Regal Cinemas for “Bloodline”


Osiris Entertainment Film distribution has joined with Regal Cinemas to release the company’s first theatrical feature, “Bloodline,” later this fall.

The film stars, and is directed by, Matt Thompson, who most recently directed the Cybill Shepherd film “Listen to Your Heart.” Also included in the cast are Kimberly Alexander (“NCIS”), Grainger Hines (“Lincoln”), Jesse Kristofferson (“Melrose Place”) and Gina Comparetto (“How I Met Your Mother”).

“Bloodline” tells the story of Brett Ethos, a young seminary student working towards a pastoral life. However, as his curiosities entice him to embrace worldly pleasures, he learns that self-discovery may be the most terrifying journey of all.

“We are excited to work with a young and successful director such as Matt,” says Osiris Entertainment CEO, Evan Crooke.

“Bloodline” will premiere at five Regal Cinemas throughout the Sacramento, California area, where the film was shot, in late September.
