Horror-westerns are big here lately, with films like Bone Tomahawk and the upcoming film Kill or Be Killed. Personally I am glad to see the trend. Horror-westerns are often an over-looked and under-rated subgenre. Kill or Be Killed will be stampeding onto DVD and Blu-ray on March 1st via RLJ Entertainment. The film was both written and directed by Duane Graves and Justin Meeks. In the autumn of 1900, outlaw Claude Barbee puts his “retirement plan” in action, attempting to lead his gang to recover a load of cash hidden after a botched railroad heist. The gang will soon discover that they are not only being hunted by the law, but a merciless evil. You can’t outrun the devil. Kill or Be Killed stars Michael Berryman, Tina Rodriguez, Justin Meeks, Paul McCarthy-Boyington, Deon Lucas, Bridger Zadine, Greg Kelly, Arianne Margot, Luce Rains, Larry Grant Harbin, Karrie Cox, Edwin Neal, Donny Boaz and others.
