Grand Entertainment Group, a newly founded independent multi-platform content and distribution company based in Los Angeles, is excited to announce the Los Angeles premiere and DVD release of the independent horror-comedy THE SELLING.

Hailed as "perhaps the greatest horror-comedy since "Shaun of the Dead"  - Disturbing Films, "The Selling"  written and produced by Gabriel Diani ("Research")  stars Janet Varney ("Judy Moody and the Not Bummer Summer", Nickelodeon's "Legend of Korra"), Barry Bostwick ("The Rocky Horror Picture Show", "Spin City"), Simon Helberg ("The Big Bang Theory"), Jonathan Klein ("Hotel for Dogs"), Etta Devine ("Mary Olson") and Nancy Lenehan ("A Better Life").

When Richard Scarry, a too honest for his own good real estate agent, discovers the house he's invested in to raise money for his mother's hospital bills is haunted he learns how scary the housing market really is. With the aid of his best friend who refuses to go inside, an exorcist who loves craftsman style architecture, and an eccentric ghost rights activist/blogger waitress, Richard gamely tries to get rid of the house and/or its ghostly inhabitants before it's too late. But when an evil spirit decides to move out of the house and into his body, Richard discovers he has a whole new set of possession problems.

President/CEO of Grand Entertainment David Rand stated, "It's not often we come across a film that has the perfect blend of suspense and comedy. To quote the Huffington Post, "The Selling" is dunked in funny…the house is like the "Money Pit" meets "Poltergeist"; viewers will surely enjoy this film."  "The film is screening across the country and audiences have been receiving the film with great praise. This type of response is very encouraging and we anticipate DVD sales to be strong across the nation" states Rand.

Writer and producer Gabriel Diani states "we are very fortunate to have found a distributor, such as Grand Entertainment, who not only respects but supports filmmakers and their projects. We are delighted to be a part of the Grand Entertainment family, and look forward to a continual and prosperous relationship with them", states Diani.
