Killer deal: THINK THINKfilm
Variety THINKs Killer, reporting that Manhattan movie mavens THINKFilm and Killer Films are combining their indie cred (and credit lines) "in a bid to stay competitive with their specialty-pic peers." Dade Hayes reports on an announcement that the pact "will effectively give Think a production-development arm and Killer a finance and distribution arm. The pact, which takes effect immediately, is not a merger but a partnership that both sides bill as 
complementary and game-changing. "Since our inception we have aimed to collaborate with people who share our taste and our approach," Killer topper Christine Vachon said in a statement. "We believe that the Think team and the Killer family couldn't be more like-minded and compatible." Mark Urman, Think's theatrical topper added in his statement that Killer has "the most amazing track record and depth of experience, yet have managed to retain the joy and enthusiasm of absolute beginners." (John Wells is expected to continue his Killer overhead deal.)
