“We declared the movie finished in about April 2022. In May we sat down and planned our first premier at the Cinemark in Bridge Street in Huntsville.” Within four days of putting tickets up for sale, the 150-seat theater had sold out, prompting McLemore to plan yet another viewing for the end of July that sold out within four hours.

“It seemed the movie had grown in popularity, so we decided to do one final viewing in Madison, which we still had an amazing turn out for despite it being in the middle of football season.”

Around the time of the first premier McLemore started approaching distribution companies, eventually landing with Terror Films, which is a distribution company with an emphasis on promoting independent horror films. Working with Terror Films, Dark Entities is now available on Tubi, Amazon, Google Play, Kings of Horror and more.

While McLemore is excited about the future of Dark Entities and his own future projects, he says he also thinks that the work he and his collaborators have done is also great for North Alabama at large.

“I think it’s a big deal for North Alabama to have a film not only made here but also picked up by a major distribution company in Hollywood and to have it going out all over the world. This was all made in North Alabama with local talent both on and behind the camera. It’s a homegrown film and I hope it’s something that people of the area can be proud of.”
