EX-DC Films Boss officially launches new horror company with Paramount

Former DC Films boss Walter Hamada has launched his previously-announced new production banner, 18hz Productions, which will provide horror content to Paramount Pictures. Hamada recruited his Smile collaborator Nathan Samdahl from Paramount itself for the imprint, and also hired creative executive Nick Romano, according to a story at The Hollywood Reporter. The name of the studio itself is a nod to 18.

"Nathan's work on hit genre movies like Paramount's Smile, 10 Cloverfield Lane and A Quiet Place as well as his extensive filmmaker relationships make him the perfect addition to the team. I'm lucky the stars aligned and I was able to get him," said Hamada in a statement."Nick is a true horror fan and his passion for the genre is contagious. Together they will be instrumental in making 18hz the home for horror.

"With his track record for groundbreaking success, Walter is the ideal partner and visionary to build out our mainstream horror genre franchise business," Paramount Pictures president and CEO Brian Robbins said when the deal was first announced."As evidenced by the fantastic performance of Smile, there is a tremendous appetite for original, high-concept storytelling in the global marketplace, and we look forward to a long and successful partnership.

Hamada should lock himself up in a glass cage, so the public can come by and spit at him:

Must been missing abusing and gaslighting actors 😅😂

It will suit him perfectly since what he did with TheDCUniverse at wbpictures was an absolute horror show.

Fantastic, going to be paid thousands for more shite - who allowed this

His only movie will be a documentary on how he ran DC
