The trailer comes courtesy of Anchor Bay Entertainment who plan on rolling out the Steve Wolsh helmed horror into homes on 17 March shortly after a special limited theatrical run on the 13th.

Indie slasher 'Muck', from first time director Steve Wolsh, has been picked up by Anchor Bay Entertainment. Anchor Bay have acquired the North American rights to the project which will have no trouble at all slotting nicely right into the low-budget survival slasher pigeon hole.

'Muck' stars the ass-smackingly hot 2012 Playmate of the Year Jaclyn Swedberg (below), Miss Cape Cod 2012 and 2013 Ashley Green Elizabeth and Audra Van Hees respectively, model Gia Skova, Stephanie Danielson, Leila Knight and Puja Mohindra, Lachlan Buchanan, Laura Jacobs, Victoria Sophia, and Lauren Francesca.

Indie Spotlight Review: Nobody Can Cool

by Heather Wixson

Nobody Can Cool is the rather impressive directorial debut from up-and-coming filmmaking duo Dpyx, Marcy Boyle and Rachel Holzman, who crafted a blisteringly taut and thoughtful indie crime thriller with a palpable sense of tension from start to finish. A gritty and engaging tale of deceit, violence and desperation, Nobody Can Cool is anchored by a breakout performance by Nick Principe (best known from his work in the Laid to Rest series, Madison County and...

It was a monumental year for Haven as it made its first panel appearance at San Diego Comic-Con. Haven not only hosted a fan party in honor of the occasion, they held their 1st panel at Sdcc, then rushed over for a 2nd panel at The Nerd Machine’s Nerd HQ — and managed to squish in time for fan scavenger hunt along the way. Everywhere you turned for the first couple of days at Sdcc there was a Haven event to be had. Fans of the show and newcomers were delighted with the large presence at San Diego Comic-Con and made sure that each appearance was a sold-out, jam-packed, and bursting at the seams event.

The Thursday July 18th party was held for the second year at the Sidebar, nestled in the center of the Gaslamp District in San Diego. It featured cast members from Entertainment One’s Syfy hit Haven and other celebrities,...

We are very giddy this week because a couple of titles that are near and dear to our hearts will be available for you folks to take home.

While we had gone on ad nauseam about the spectacular second Paranormal Activity demonic home invasion film, you can now watch it in your own house over and over again. Your home surveillance camera videos may never be the same again! We are also treated to not one, but both I Spit on Your Graves - the original from the 1970s and the new remake of a gritty film which may be disturbing to some but nonetheless empowering.

The other titles released this week from our genre may not be as beloved, but they are worth mentioning for the completists out there. Maybe they make better sense when viewed in the safety of one's home.
