Survival of the Dead
Immediately following the events of Diary of the Dead, SURVIVAL OF THE
DEAD is the 6th film from George A. Romero to look at a world where
humans are in the minority and the zombies rule.
Off the coast of Delaware sits the cozy Plum Island where two families
are locked in a struggle for power, as it has been for generations. The
O'Flynn's, headed by patriarch Patrick O'Flynn (Kenneth Welsh) approach
the zombie plague with a shoot-to-kill attitude. The Muldoons, headed
by Shamus Muldoon (Richard Fitzpatrick), feel that the zombies should be
quarantined and kept 'alive,' in hopes that a solution will someday be
found.
The O'Flynn's, who are clearly outnumbered, are forced to exile Patrick
by boat to the mainland, where he meets up with a band of soldiers,
headed by Guardsman Sarge (Alan Van Sprang). They join forces and return
to the island, to find that the zombie plague has fully gripped the
divided community.
As the battle between humans and zombies escalates, the master filmmaker
continues to reinvent the modern horror genre with wicked humor and
pointed social commentary.

Splice
Celebrated genetic engineers Clive (Adrien Brody) and Elsa (Sarah Polley) conduct a clandestine experiment to create an animal/human hybrid that could revolutionize modern medicine -- if it doesn't destroy humanity first. On the heels of engineering an entirely new species of animal, Clive and Elsa become the toast of the scientific community. Their experiment begins to spiral out of control, however, when the superstar scientists introduce human DNA into the equation. When Dren is born, Clive and Elsa welcome her into the world as the next leap in human evolution. Now, the faster Dren evolves, the more her creators start to realize they may have made a catastrophic mistake. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide |

Piranha 3D
Haute Tension and Hills Have Eyes director Alexandre Aja pays homage to the films that made him fall in love with the horror genre by helming this comedic remake of director Joe Dante's 1978 Jaws parody. Lake Victoria may look peaceful, but beneath the placid waters of this painterly lake lurks a deadly menace. A powerful underwater tremor has released scores of man-eating prehistoric fish into the waters, and now it's up to a group of unlikely heroes to band together and defeat the razor-toothed predators. With time running out and the aquatic carnivores taking over, one brave heroine (Elisabeth Shue) will risk everything to save the lake and prevent her family from becoming fish food. Richard Dreyfuss, Ving Rhames, Jerry O'Connell, and Adam Scott star in the Dimension Films production. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi |

The Last Exorcism
When he arrives on the rural Louisiana farm of Louis Sweetzer, the Reverend Cotton Marcus expects to perform just another routine “exorcism” on a disturbed religious fanatic. An earnest fundamentalist, Sweetzer has contacted the charismatic preacher as a last resort, certain his teenage daughter Nell is possessed by a demon who must be exorcized before their terrifying ordeal ends in unimaginable tragedy. Buckling under the weight of his conscience after years of parting desperate believers with their money, Cotton and his crew plan to film a confessionary documentary of this, his last exorcism. But upon arriving at the already blood drenched family farm, it is soon clear that nothing could have prepared him for the true evil he encounters there. Now, too late to turn back, Reverend Marcus’ own beliefs are shaken to the core when he and his crew must find a way to save Nell – and themselves – before it is too late. THE LAST EXORCISM is written by Huck Botko & Andrew Gurland and directed by Daniel Stamm. It is produced by Eric Newman, Eli Roth, Marc Abraham and Thomas A. Bliss. Strike Entertainment and STUDIOCANAL present an Arcade Pictures production. |
