An Interview With ‘Dawning Of The Dead’ And ‘Cute Little Buggers’ Director Tony Jopia

Tony Jopia, writer-director-producer of films such as Crying Wolf 3D, Cute Little Buggers, and the zombie film Dawning of the Dead, which just arrived on VOD, took the time to sit down and answer a few of our questions about his films. Horror Fuel: Do you remember the first horror film you saw? What was it and how old were you?” Tony Jopia: I got to see loads of black and white creature features like THEM! and The Black Scorpion from around 11years old when my father would wake me up to watch them on late night TV. Prior to this, I think The Wizard of OZ was pretty scary, I remember going to the cinema on a very rainy day with my dad when I was about 6 and getting freaked out by the monkeys and the green witch. The forest was spooky too. The first few films I call full-on horror, that had a massive impact on me,

Movie Review: Paranormal Farm Brings a Horror Harvest Worth Seeing!

In the latest entry in the massively saturated found footage fright flick genre, Paranormal Farm, a documentary film maker is called to an extremely rural farm to try and prove whether the location is actually haunted. He records everything (of course…wouldn’t be much of a ‘found footage’ film without any ‘footage’), and shows signs of being freaked the F out before he even enters the domicile and meets it’s salt of the Earth occupants. After a bit of investigation (and learning about the family’s tragedy) the owners leave, and our hero is left alone in the home. Wandering the grounds, he inexplicably encounters men in clown masks which continue to terrorize him further back at the homestead. After inviting the spirit to use him as a vessel…to complete success…our protagonist has had about enough of the house and all it’s bullshit, and bolts to the trailer where the owners are staying during the investigation. This leads to some shocking information…and

Questions Are Answered, A Review Of ‘Resident Evil 7’s DLC, ‘Not A Hero’

I waited until midnight of the 12th and got the free DLC ‘Not a Hero’, installed it and played it. The only complaint I had about the game was that it was an hour long, being a free download I guess there’s really nothing to be too upset about. The controls for the game are the same as the main story but you’re equipped with only two weapons, a high powered pistol, and a semi-automatic shotgun. You also have a knife and grenades. The options you set up for the main story carry over into the DLC (screen brightness, subtitles, language, etc). Onto the story (Possible Spoilers) first thing, if you have not played the main story, play that first or else the ‘Not a Hero’ makes no sense. The story takes place immediately after the events of the main story. You play as Chris Redfield, a veteran character from the game series, before I continue I’ll address the big

The Midseason Finale Of ‘The Walking Dead’ Was Filled With Death And Destruction

WARNING SPOILERS! Last night the midseason finale of ‘The Walking Dead’ left many fans in shock when a major revelation was revealed in the final moments. After only a few moments into the episode, we learned that Negan and many of his men escaped after Daryl, Michonne, and Tara sent a truck crashing into the saviors’ compound in the previous episode. When Negan and the Saviors arrived at the gates of Alexandria Rick was nowhere to be found, and the group was in shock. Carl stepped up as a leader, telling the group that it is his “his show”. While Carl gave a passionate speech that seemed to get under the skin of Negan several trucks attempted to escape, but they left Carl and many of the main group to escape on foot. As Carl attempted to find safety a grenade hit a nearby car exploding, leaving Carl temporarily unconscious. This where I couldn’t help but wonder why they would
