COMMACK, N.Y., May 10, 2007 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- TitleMatch Entertainment Group, a subsidiary of Protocall Technologies Incorporated (OTCBB:PCLI) and developer of the world's first CSS enabled DVD On-Demand service for retailers and etailers, today announced three new agreements with independent movie studios including Troma Entertainment, Singa Home Entertainment and Monarch Films to distribute the studio's films through TitleMatch.
Under terms of the agreements, approximately 200 films from the three studios will be made available for distribution through the TitleMatch DVD On-Demand service.
Troma Entertainment is the oldest continually operating fully independent movie studio in the world. Since 1974, Troma has produced, acquired and distributed more than one thousand feature films from all regions of the globe and in all genres. The first titles available through the agreement with TitleMatch will include directorial films by Al Adamson, famous for his low budget drive-in classics produced throughout the 1960s and 1970s. His Dracula vs. Frankenstein featured final performances of internationally famous horror veterans Lon Chaney Jr. and J. Carrol Naish.
Singa Home Entertainment is an innovative independent film distributor that was founded by veteran film industry executives. The company optimizes exposure for and revenue from its large catalog of films by aggressively exploiting both traditional and new distribution channels.
Monarch Films, Inc. is a producer and distributor of non-fiction content that specializes in single documentaries, viral and mobile device clip packages, and non-fiction series in all genres for all media platforms around the world.
"We are very pleased that Troma, along with Singa and Monarch Films have joined TitleMatch in our independent film studio category," commented Syd Dufton, President of TitleMatch Entertainment. "Films from independent studios are a rapidly expanding part of the movie industry and we expect the category to be an important part of our future market strategy and revenue, especially since independent films are often at a distinct disadvantage when it comes to distribution into the retail channel."
