Company Secures Additional Markets for Series

Heading Into NATPE 2009

Rive Gauche Television has finalized a licensing agreement with Discovery Latin America for the Scare Tactics series, including the all-new third season. Scare Tactics is a revenge format series that follows people who lure their friends and families into outrageously scary scenarios that often turn wildly hilarious on camera. The announcement was made today by Dorothy Crompton, Senior Vice President, International Sales.

According to Crompton, the company has recently closed deals with Canal Plus (France), AXN (Pan Asia) and Viasat Broadcasting (Latvia, Lithuania, Estonia) for all seasons of Scare Tactics.

In the United States, the series airs on the Sci Fi Channel and has received a significant increase in ratings from season to season in all key demographics.

“The addition of these key buyers illustrates the momentum for Scare Tactics in the international marketplace,” said Crompton. “We are confident that the series will continue to attract a loyal audience in these important markets and we are thrilled to introduce the all-new third season to our broadcaster partners at the upcoming NATPE market.”

Scare Tactics (22 x 30’ Season 1; 22 x 30’ Season 2; 13 x 30’ Season 3) -- This series is a deliciously terrifying hidden camera program where friends and family members lure those close to them into outrageously frightening scenarios – all with a sci-fi and horror twist from alien abductions to military experiments gone awry. The use of superb costumes, state-of-the-art special effects and edgy editing brings the hidden camera genre to an all new level.

At NATPE, Rive Gauche Entertainment is located at booth # 1305.
