Amazon Prime Horror Films

The production company The Asylum, famous for Sharknado and Mega Shark vs. Giant Octopus , has a symbiotic relationship with Prime. Their films ( Asteroid vs. Earth , Jurassic Domination ) cost $50,000–$100,000 to make and generate profit through sheer volume on streaming. On Prime, these films appear algorithmically alongside major studio releases. A user searching “zombie” may see World War Z (Paramount, rent $3.99) immediately next to Zombie Apocalypse: Redemption (The Asylum, included with Prime).
