The best way of getting our film to make the highest possible profit would be to go to a major distributer such as Warner Bros who produced The Exorcist, A Nightmare on Elm Street and House of wax. People are more likely to buy from a well known film production company as they're seen to be more reliable and get more publicity. 
I could also go to smaller companies like 'Hammer Productions', who produced the Frankenstein, and Dracula films, as well as many psychological horror films. They would be useful because they're specialised so will have a better idea of how to market the film to the target audience. Another way I could distribute my film is through video sharing websites such as youtube or metacafe, which has a whole section for films, making my movie easily and freely accessible to a wider audience for quick feedback. These sorts of video sharing websites are exceedingly popular especially with my target audience and so putting a few clips or a trailer of my film onto them would increase it's popularity. There are also lots of well known websites made specifically for watching films and videos on, for example megavideo or imdb (internet movie database), which would be good for gaining publicity.
Finally, television channels like Sky could distribute my film on Sky Horror, Sky Movies or on the horror film channel , number 319, this would then make my film more widely avaliable to people because they wouldn't have to pay to go to the cinema and so it would widen my potential audience.
