When you think of some of the most beloved and enduring characters in the history of the horror genre, Dracula has to be somewhere near the top. Certain entities are just synonymous with everything that we love as horror fans, and the original fanged fiend definitely fits the bill. The good news? We may be seeing a lot more of him.

While it doesn't sound very Dread Central oriented, we've been assured by the powers that be that the latest film from Raw Feed creator Tony Krantz is home to lots of things close to the hearts of you wondrous sickos out there. Hence the coverage! From the Press Release

It's pretty easy to see that WB's Raw Feed (official site) is picking up where Lionsgate left off by providing killer direct-to-video horror flicks. And Warner Brothers isn't shying away from putting those titles out on Blu-ray!

A few weeks back we gave you guys an exclusive audio behind-the-scenes walkthrough for the makeup work in Tony Krantz’ Otis (DVD review), the latest entry in Warner Bros.’ Raw Feed line (dig it here).

Who doesn't love a good party? Come on, man! Powder blue suits! Disco balls! Chicks in chains being tortured by heavy-set guys who just wanna boogie! What more could you want? Oh yeah, signed mementos of your magical evening! We've got you covered!

Otis (review), Tony Krantz's heart touching tale of a psychotic man named Otis and his quest for love ... and dismemberment ... will be hitting store shelves on June 10th, but you have a chance to see it on the big screen before that!

We’ve been working with Tony Krantz, one of the three producers behind the Raw Feed DVD series as well as the director of Sublime (DVD review) from the first batch and Otis (review) from the forthcoming set, to put together some very unique goodies just for Dread Central readers.

The sickos over at IGN got their paws on the first trailer for Otis, the new horror movie that will be the first in a new wave from Warner Bros.’ Raw Feed banner. The story is about a teenager who escapes the grips of the titular serial killer and her parents, eager to get revenge, decide to take justice in their own hands.

Lots of good stuff coming our way from Raw Feed’s Otis today; first up, the good news that the Tony Krantz-helmed movie is opening this year’s South by Southwest. Obviously Warner Bros. is pretty damn happy with Otis, made for their direct-to-DVD line, if they’re premiering it in front of such a hip crowd.

“Honey, I love you. Now go get the power tools.”

This Raw Feed thing is really working out well for seemingly everyone involved. Two bits of news came down yesterday concerning the future of the direct-to-DVD line, which just recently announced another trilogy of movies; Otis, Rest Stop 2 and Supermarket.

**UPDATE: Fangoria got the first look at the cover!** Though a lot of people who saw it may have had issues with Rest Stop, the first of Warner Bros. direct-to-DVD releases under the Raw Feed banner, the next entry in the series sounds like it has more potential to be genuinely scary.
