Separately, Intandem is working on four horror titles that will not be financed by FearFactory but will be marketed under the FearFactory banner once completed. Those are Primal Scream directed by Albert Magnoli and produced by Steve Gagnon; The Lodge directed by Michael Lee Baron and produced by Michel Shane and Anthony Romano; Run directed by Warren Sonoda and produced by Mihkel Harilaid; and Worst Nightmares directed by Mark Roper and produced by Alan Robinson.
Meanwhile Intandem has cemented its US distribution plans for Stephen Woolley's Stoned, the biopic of Rolling Stones guitarist Brian Jones which played at the Edinburgh, Toronto and San Sebastian film festivals among others.
The film will open theatrically in March 2006 through Joe Kovacs' Screen Media Ventures and will go through that company's home entertainment deal with Universal. Intandem will work closely with Screen Media Ventures on the film's release, just as it is working alongside Vertigo Films for the UK release on Nov 18.
Meanwhile Intandem has closed deals for the film with Presidio in Japan, Lumiere in Brazil, Lusomundo in Portugal, Non-Stop in Scandinavia, Village Roadshow in Greece, Bridge in Benelux, Noah in Israel and Fivia in Croatia.
On Ann Turner's stalker drama Irresistible starring Susan Sarandon, Sam Neill and Emily Blunt, Intandem has closed deals with Icon for the UK, Blue Star for Italy, Square One in Germany, Palace in Australia, Village Roadshow in Greece, Bridge in Benelux, New World in Bulgaria and Romania, Vision Africa for South Africa, Lusomundo for Portugal, Noah for Israel, and Hunter for Turkey.

Have a read of this post in conjunction with post 51
"Intandem earns commission on sales to film distributors around the world.
Distributors pay a minimum guaranteed sum ahead of the film's release therefore
Intandem's commission is not dependent on the box office success of the film.
Revenue is only recognised on films which have been completed during the
financial period."
There must be some good revenue comming in from these deals alone. Now I also noticed that not all fees/commissions were realised this FY which means the carry over to H1 should be very good.

Trading Statement
Intandem Films plc
Trading Update
Intandem Films plc, the AIM listed feature film executive production and
international sales company, has quadrupled the number of films in its
catalogue to 12 films with total budgets in excess of $55 million.
It has signed agreements for the international sales rights to five completed
American films, one Danish/Chile co-production (currently in post production),
a UK/American documentary film which starts shooting in May, and two films due
to start production in the Summer, an American thriller to be filmed in Brazil
and an American horror film.
Intandem will earn sales commission of at least 15% on sales of each of the
above films. Revenues for the five completed films will fall into the current
year whilst revenues on the other films are expected to be taken in the year
ending 30 June 2007 when the films will be delivered. As part of its corporate
philosophy, Intandem has not invested its own funds into the films and
overheads have not been increased. The Company is on track to achieve an
improvement on last year's inaugural results, which is in line with directors'
expectations.
The five completed films are Civic Duty a tense thriller starring Peter Krause
(from the internationally successful, Six Feet Under) which will have its
worldwide premiere at the Tribeca Film Festival in New York; The Orphan King
and Statistics, which are two thrillers from Michel Shane, the executive
producer of I Robot and Catch Me If You Can, with whom Intandem has forged a
close working relationship; and two horror films from prolific producer Donald
Kushner, Snuff - Movie, directed by Bernard Rose (Candyman) and produced by
Peter Locke (The Hills Have Eyes) and True True Lie.
The films in production are Black Pimpernel, a true story about the Swedish
Ambassador Harald Edelstam - and his fight to save the lives of thousands of
refugees during the Chilean Military coup in 1973; and Heaven and Hell, a
fascinating documentary film about the hypocrisy surrounding religion, politics
and the porn industry in the `Bible Belt' states of America. The films due to
commence production in the Summer are Flower in Brazil and Primal Scream which
are both being financed by a single producer based in Florida.
Each of the above films will be marketed at the Cannes Film Festival in May.
Gary Smith, the Chairman of Intandem commented,
"We are pleased to have added a portfolio of thrillers and horror films to our
sales slate and are delighted at the quality of producers being attracted to
Intandem, particularly in the United States. We are confident about achieving
our corporate objective which is to aggressively build a diverse portfolio of
films consisting of thrillers, horror, comedy and drama with a wide range of
budgets which appeal to the international market place."

The loss for the half year came in at 138,000.
However, Intandem insisted that the loss was "significantly less" than the 431,000 deficit which it posted in the six months to June 2005.

Haven't checked this out in a while. Cannes is just around the corner and the company seems bullish from the above posts. I lost a bit of interest after Stoned but it looks as though they could be coming good with these new films

Heavy buying this morning !
I'm excited about "A Flower In Brazil" because it is going to star Jon Voight, Donald Sutherland and Pierce Brosnan.
These are heavyweights and so the budget is going to be large - good for Intandem Films.
