Scouts Guide To The Zombie Apocalypse Getting Early Release

Scouts Guide to the Zombie Apocalypse will be coming to DVD on December 8th, just 39 days after it’s theatrical premiere. Christopher Landon, who also directed ‘Paranormal Activity: The Marked Ones’, is behind the film about three Scouts who join forces with a bad-ass waitress to survive when their town is swarmed by zombies. Scouts Guide to the Zombie Apocalypse stars Patrick Shchwarzenegger, Tye Sheridan, Halston Sage, David Koechner and Jesica Ahlberg, among others. Human zombies aren’t the only things the cast will have to face. They also have to dodge, a horde of crazy zombie kitties who want to make a meal out of the group. Scouts Guide is just one of several new films that will be part of Paramount’s experiment that will test if the normal 90-day period studios wait to release films on DVD is really the right way to go. Either way, fans are grateful for the early releases.

Real Creatures That Belong In Horror Films – Part I

There are a lot of strange creatures on Earth. Some look like they’re from another world, others look like they escaped from scene out of a horror film. A lot of people find sharks terrifying, but the Goblin Shark looks like something that would make you want to avoid the ocean for the rest of your life. The Goblin Shark is pink, with a mouth that shoots out of it’s face. The shark can reach up to 3.84 meters long. It’s so strange that it does not fit in any other shark family. Don’t worry, the odds of you running into this creepy creature are slim, it prefers the deep sea. For zombie fans, the next oddity should be right up your ally. Technically this strange thing is a fungus, but I believe it belongs on this list.

COD Zombies – Shadows of Evil Review

With every new year comes a new Call of Duty. It has joined Death and Taxes on the list of inevitabilities. Thankfully, Black Ops 3 once again gives us the pleasure of blasting the heads off of shambling corpses. I’ll be honest, it’s the main reason I bought the game. Ever since they were introduced back in World at War, I have been an avid zombie hunter. This year, they changed it up a bit -although it does borrow some mechanics from older maps. Previous games have had well known faces and voices in your control as you take on the hordes of undead, and this one is no different. We get Neal McDonough (Arrow, Minority Report), Heather Graham (Boogie Nights, The Hangover), Ron Pearlman (Hellboy, Sons of Anarchy), and my personal favourite – Jeff Goldblum (Independence Day, Jurassic Park). All based in a 40’s era noir-esque map accompanied by some catchy jazz riffs. However, even with others boasting awesome

Wolf Cop 2 Begins Filming Soon !

The sequel to 2014’s horror-comedy Wolf Cop, Wolf Cop 2, will begin filming in Saskatchewan, Canada in February, and we couldn’t be more excited! In Wolf Cop we were introduced to Lou Garou (Leo Fafard), an alcohol chugging, lazy, small town cop. Lou was a poor excuse for a cop and a human being, that was until he was the victim of an assault and a dark ritual in the back woods after a call. The ritual transformed Lou into a werewolf and a better man. Lou’s now on a mission to rid his town of corruption and drug dealers. He also happens to be a bit of a party animal. Lowell Dean’s film made a huge impression on fans, including myself, and formed an instant cult following. Wolf Cop 2‘s producer Bernie Hernando promises that “the sequel will be bigger, badder, and hairer.” “We’re excited to get the band back together after all this time,” Hernando stated. “Many of
