It is always a good thing when a horror movie is disturbing. Resurrection County is just such a film. To be released on DVD March 20th through Mti Home Video, this film will change that nice comfortable feeling you have starting the film into something a little more dangerous and thrilling. Two couples are reduced to one as four friends start a nightmarish camping trip in hillbilly country. The result is a lot of cat and mouse scenes, some very unsettling incidents and a slightly sour final scene.

Sam (Dayton Knoll) is the lead in the film, but that position changes quickly. After Sam and Tommy (Adam Huss) unearth a meth' lab, two rednecks turn a bad situation into something worse with antagonistic words and gunfire.

Mti Home Video has picked up Matt Zettell's (The Cellar Door) Resurrection County for distribution on DVD March 20th. The film involves several friends travelling through some backwoods. In Enoch, they find an inhospitable welcome and vigilante justice when a small event turns into a bigger and bloodier deal. The DVD artwork is left in blood reds and the release will be sparse on extras, but the trailer promises a few thrills with a town of murderous rednecks. Check this one out on DVD in just a few weeks.

Tagline: "In this town there are no second warnings."

Release Date: March 20th, 2012 (DVD).

Director: Matt Zettell.

Writers: James Cotten and Matt Yeager.

Cast: Dayton Knoll, Adam Huss, Kathryn Michelle, Robert Miano, and Rus Blackwell.

This is The week to invest in a PS3 just so you can buy and download the fantastic Dead Nation exclusively on the Playstation Network. Trust us - it will be worth your while.

If you are not a gamer, this week's horror offerings are limited to some fangless bites with the latest installment of Twilight, The Twilight Saga: Eclipse (and all its related merchandise), staking (ha!) out a Saturday release all by itself. There's also Vampires Suck, but the release party flash mob in Hollywood on November 30th sounds more interesting than the film itself.

Dead Nation (Video Game)

Available exclusively on the Playstation Network for $14.99, Dead Nation (Review) is said to be home to the "smartest zombies" to ever be placed in a video game, meaning that these baddies will perform surprise attacks, drop down on you from buildings, and even grab at you through fences.

Fable: Teeth of Beasts Poster

Dark Roast Releasing is a distribution company that was formed this year, which focuses on modern, independent films. One of their newest acquisitions is Fable: Teeth of Beasts, which will show at this year's Fantasia Film Festival. However, after watching the film's trailer and perusing the Fable movie poster, carefully, a better title for the film could have been Fable: Teeth of Breasts. The trailer is flashy, but offers almost no info' on the story. As well, Fable seems out to titillate rather than deliver anything cohesive, or coherent. Yet, some fans might find the eye candy charming as character Lilith Noir (Melantha Blackthorne) blasts away at any and almost every man she comes in contact with, in this clip.

The synopsis for Fable: Teeth of Beasts here:

"Lilith Noir is a hardboiled freelance enforcer for the shadow government that keeps watch over the city of Fable,...

A synopsis for Resurrection County here:

"A warning to outsiders! When traveling through Resurrection County, mind the signs, one false move out there could be your last. When four suburbanite campers roll into the remote town of Enoch, they find that southern hospitality still exists. But things are not what they appear to be, as a weekend camping trip turns deadly.

Weekend getaways. Don't take them. Seriously, cinema has shown us vacations these days are bad news and it's best to just...stay home. Director Matt Zettell knows the score and his lesson comes via Resurrection County which hits the American Film Market this week.
