This being Friday the 13th and all, it’s no surprise that a small handful of new horror titles are hitting VOD outlets today. And they’re bringing with them everything from Australian zombies to some seriously Crazy Bitches. Read on for all the info!
First up, we just wanted to let you guys know that award-winning Brazilian horror film Beyond the Grave is now available for free over on Hulu. Subscribers to Hulu Plus can watch it in HD and with no ads. The film was made several years ago and was never previously available to watch here in the States.
Written, produced and directed by Davi de Oliveira Pinheiro, Beyond the Grave (aka Porto dos Mortos) tells the surrealistic journey of an unnamed police officer (Rafael Tombini) through the empty highways of a post-apocalyptic world. The man seeks revenge against a magical serial killer known as the Dark Rider.
We can’t think of a better way to celebrate Valentine’s weekend than with some Crazy Bitches, which is precisely what writer/director Jane Clark brings to the table with her latest film.
In it, seven sorority sisters reunite for a weekend to celebrate their pal’s birthday. But at the remote ranch where they settle for leisurely days of gossip, girl time, and grub, something soon seems amiss…
Up next, Trevor Matthews (Jack Brooks: Monster Slayer) makes his directorial debut with Girl House, which begins its limited theatrical and VOD release today.
The film follows a beautiful young college student who, needing money for tuition, moves into a house that streams content to an X-rated website. After a deranged fan hacks in to determine the house’s location, she finds herself in a terrifying fight for her life.
And last but certainly not least, Aussie zombie flick Wyrmwood (review) has been put up for viewing today by IFC Midnight. The film has been described as “Mad Max meets Dawn of the Dead” so it’s one you’ll probably want to check out.
Writer-director Kiah Roache-Turner’s film centers on Barry, a talented mechanic and family man whose life is torn apart on the eve of a zombie apocalypse. On the road he teams up with Chalker, a fellow survivor, and together they must arm themselves and prepare to battle their way through hordes of flesh-eating monsters in a harsh Australian bushland.
