Talk about quick turnarounds. Though they haven’t even had their theatrical debuts yet, Lionsgate has announced the DVD release of two of the eight films compiling this year’s crop of After Dark Originals.

From the Press Release
From the creators of the wildly successful After Dark Horrorfest series come two all-new original films sure to leave fans trembling in fear. On March 29th, the fear hits home as Lionsgate debuts After Dark Originals: Husk and Prowl on DVD, Digital Download and On Demand. The two all-new films provide a higher quality of horror, fully developed and produced by After Dark. Husk and Prowl will both have a limited theatrical release on January 28th.

Husk
Based on the acclaimed Sundance Film Festival short, terror reigns amidst the cornfields in a supernatural game of cat and mouse. When crows collide with the windshield of their car, a young group of friends are left stranded next to a desolate cornfield. The friends seek out help from the single-standing farmhouse they see, but they quickly figure out that the only solace they have are each other when the house they have stumbled upon is actually the center of the supernatural.

Prowl
What’s intended to be a brief escape from their small town turns deadly for a group of young friends. While en route to the city to apartment hunt, their car breaks down and leaves the friends stranded on the side of the road. They are able to hitch a ride in the back of a cargo truck but when the driver later refuses to stop, the friends realize that they are stowed away with hundreds of cartons of blood. All too quickly the truck arrives in an abandoned warehouse where they’re left as prey for bloodthirsty vampires.
