From October 31-November 7 the film world will descend upon Santa Monica, California for one of the most important trade shows in the industry, the American Film Market.

Industry representatives from all over the world meet at AFM to buy and sell films, and The Asylum will be right there in the fray.

If you’re in the area… and have a pass… drop by and see us at our office in the Loews Hotel (Suite 716).

I know… we can’t believe we’re still in business either.

The Asylum opened shop in 1997 in a one-bedroom apartment with the crazy idea that a few dedicated movie lovers could actually create a mini film studio. And now, ten years later, it’s exactly what we’ve become.

There have been a lot of changes over the years. For one thing, we’re no longer in a one-bedroom apartment (then rent was too high, so we moved into a single). Many people aren’t aware that The Asylum started as a distributor of “art house” films, then we made a name for ourselves as the makers of B-horror movies, and now we’re known for our studio tie-ins (some people call them rip-offs… but they just don’t know any better). But one thing hasn’t changed: This company is still made up of a small group of people who just love to make movies.

We don’t know what the next ten years will bring (porn, probably), but we hope you’ll be there with us.
