In 1990, Hadida set up Davis Films to produce genuinely international projects such as Tony Scott's True Romance (1993), written by Quentin Tarantino (whose debut feature Reservoir Dogs he had distributed in France), and Roger Avary's Killing Zoe (1993).

    Other films produced by Hadida include Sheldon Lettich's Only the Strong (1993), Christophe Gans' Crying Freeman (1995) and the co-directed H. P. Lovecraft's _Necronomicon (1994)_, Steve Barron's The Adventures of Pinocchio (1996), Matthew Bright's Freeway (1996), Gabriele Salvatores' Nirvana (1997) and Michael Haussman's _Rhinoceros Hunting in Budapest (1996)_. Hadida recently produced the epic fantasy blockbuster _Pacte des Loups, Le (2001)_ (Brotherhood of the Wolf), directed by Christophe Gans, a box-office hit in France, and Resident Evil (2002).
