Anchor Bay Films posted a new clip of After.Life on the official website today.
After.Life opens April 9, 2010 and stars Liam Neeson and Christina Ricci.
After a horrific car accident, Anna (Ricci) wakes up to find the local funeral director Eliot Deacon (Neeson) preparing her body for her funeral. Confused, terrified and feeling still very much alive, Anna doesn’t believe she’s dead, despite the funeral director’s reassurances that she is merely in transition to the afterlife. Eliot convinces her he has the ability to communicate with the dead and is the only one who can help her. Trapped inside the funeral home, with nobody to turn to except Eliot, Anna is forced to face her deepest fears and accept her own death. But Anna’s grief-stricken boyfriend Paul (Justin Long) still can’t shake the nagging suspicion that Eliot isn’t what he appears to be. As the funeral nears, Paul gets closer to unlocking the disturbing truth, but it could be too late; Anna may have already begun to cross over the other side.
Here is the first decent trailer for George Romero’s Survival of the Dead. I don’t know why it is a “red band” trailer but it is.
Romero’s latest effort to ruin his own legacy premieres on VOD, Amazon, Xbox Live and Playstation April 30th and is in theaters on May 28th.
When the idyllic retreat of Plum Island falls victim to the zombie plague, a new breed of clan war breaks out. On one side is the camp who want to exterminate all the undead with a wickedly diverse array of brain-splattering head-shots. On the other devoted family members take the stance that “zombie-ism” is a disease, the undead have rights, and they must be kept alive until a cure is found. Unable to simply “agree to disagree,” the two clans go to war and make their island microcosm a whole hell of a lot bloodier. An undead parallel to the tribal wars that are plaguing our own society today, SURVIVAL OF THE DEAD exposes the futility of such conflict and the need for tolerance of the beliefs of others.

Platinum Dunes’ A Nightmare on Elm Street opens in theaters everywhere April 30, 2010, and below we have the second trailer for the film. You can catch this version on the big screen tomorrow (February 26, 2010) in front to The Crazies.
Freddy Krueger returns in A Nightmare on Elm Street, a contemporary re-shitting on the horror classic. A group of surburban teenagers share one common bond: they are all being stalked by Freddy Krueger, a horribly disfigured killer who hunts them in their dreams. As long as they stay awake, they can protect one another…but when they sleep, there is no escape.
Daddy’s Girl… Great name… Meh trailer! Actress Zoe Sloane looks like Alicia Silverstone from The Crush, and that is nothing to get excited about. If you’re going to make a teen-goes-killer flick you need a more lolita-type lead. Don’t Deliver Us From Evil still upsets people to this day. Daddy’s Girl looks like another indy film that doesn’t push the envelope.
The only highlight is that John Wesley Shipp (The Flash from the original 90s TV show ) plays Sloane’s father. Check out the trailer below and see what you think.
I have no idea how to describe Jimmy Creamer’s live-action/animated movie Dogshit… And after watching the trailer I’m not sure I want to.
Society is ruled over by a giant dog that is using the recent surge of monster attacks to try and convince his people to sign up for “optional” brain surgery. A self appointed “monster hunter” in a pink bunny suit is the only person brave enough to stand up to the creatures but soon runs into trouble when his girlfriend is kidnapped by the Macaroni Gang. He goes on a warpath through the seedy underworld of The Dog’s dystopian society while trying to fight hallucinations brought on talking worms living inside his large intestine. Dogshit blends live action and animation together to create a psychedelic nightmare world of doom and despair, and other awesome keywords.
From the person who brought us the video No Signal comes Mirror Scare — a video montage of one of horror’s biggest movie cliches. See how many of your favorite horror flicks made the cut.
“Closing mirrors (or whatever) and having someone standing there (or not) as a jump scare (or sigh of relief) is, like, something that should have only worked once. Horror cinema trots it out so often, it’s like beating a dead horse for the pure spectacle of horse-beating.”

Below we have the teaser trailer (w/English subtitles) for the new Spanish horror flick, The Silent House.
Directed by Gustavo Hernandez and produced by Gustavo Rojo on a very low budget, Silent House, “digs deeply into the unexplored subject of psychological terror. The film runs through a terrifying story with only a single continuous shot and was filmed with a SLR digital or a Canon EOS 5D Mark, making it the first horror movie in in the world to have been filmed by a photograph camera.”

Horror-Movies.ca posted a video of a Stickam chat featuring Scout Taylor-Compton (Laurie Strode) talking about Halloween 3D. Taylor-Compton says if there is a “great script” she will return for a third film, but she refuses to do a movie that “sucks” and will not reprise her role as Strode if the studio rushes H3 into production. Someone should tell her that it is too late, because she has already done a few movies that suck, including both Rob Zombie Halloween films.
This February horror fans are stuck with nothing but remakes — unless you count Shutter Island or Adam Green’s Frozen — but at least the remakes don’t look that bad. Benicio Del Toro’s The Wolfman (February 12, 2010) and Overture Films’ The Crazies (February 26, 2010) bookend the month. Hopefully one of them will be half-decent.
Check out two new TV spots for The Crazies below.
Overture Films’ The Crazies arrives in theaters February 26, 2010. Check out the newest trailer and character one-sheets below!
Imagine living in a small town where everything is safe and happy…until suddenly it isn’t. Imagine your friends and neighbors going quickly and horrifically insane. In a terrifying tale of the “American Dream” gone horribly wrong, four friends find themselves trapped in their hometown in The Crazies, a reinvention of the George Romero classic directed by Breck Eisner from a screenplay by Ray Wright (Pulse, Case 39) and Scott Kosar (The Amityville Horror, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre).
You can catch Clive Barker’s Dread in theaters starting January 29th to February 4th as part of Horrorfest 4.
“Red-hot young star Jackson Rathbone, fresh from the smash film Twilight Saga, stars in the stylish horror/thriller Dread. Stephen and Cheryl (Laura Donnelly,) are college students making a documentary about what people dread in life. But they have no idea that their partner Quaid, witnessed his parents being murdered by an axe-wielding lunatic and wants to make others experience his own personal horror.

The film stars J. LaRose, Michael Berryman, and Bill Cobbs.

Twenty-eight years later, in the depths of the asylum, something evil still survives. Under the direction of maverick filmmaker Ric La Monte, The Tentant is presented through the stunning High Definition cinematography of Jose Zambrano Cassella, and promises anguishing intrigue, an astonishing twist and a chilling conclusion. All of this delivered with an exciting 5.1 surround sound mix and original score.
