Deadline Hollywood is reporting that Drafthouse Films has
made the first deal at SXSW2013; picking up the theatrical distribution and video
rights to the film ‘Cheap Thrills’. Apparently this came out of a bidding war
with several other studios after the movie’s Friday night premiere. I did not cover
the film (tragically, I am unable to grow a sufficiently large handle bar mustache
to qualify for a SXSW press badge), but the article describes the film as a
comedy-thriller about a man accepting escalating bets from a wealthy couple. No trailer yet
available but I will update this post when Drafthouse Films releases one. <>
