Trailer and Artwork for George A. Romero Presents Deadtime Stories Volume 2

We’re not gonna beat around the bush here … Deadtime Stories Volume 1 was pretty terrible. Hopefully the gang behind this truly good anthology premise can get their act together and deliver with its sequel.

The second volume of this two-volume set from horror master Romero consists of an anthology of three 30-minute nail-biting horror films from writer Jeff Monahan (Lone Star), who also directs alongside Michael Fischa, Matt Walsh and Marty Schiff.

THE GORGE: Three best friends go hiking on a fun morning expedition when a sudden avalanche leaves them trapped in a cave with no way out. Now imprisoned in a living nightmare, how long can the three survive before they begin to turn on each other?

ON SABBATH HILL: A chilling tale about a handsome playboy professor who is a stickler for student attendance. When his wandering affections cause a female admirer to commit suicide, his stern attendance rules come back to haunt him. Literally.

DUST: When a scientist at a high-tech space lab discovers dust from the planet Mars might have the ability to cure cancer, a security guard steals a sample for his terminally ill wife. What at firstappears to be a miracle cure turns into an unimaginable horror.

Look for George A. Romero Presents Deadtime Stories Volume 2 in stores on September 20th.
