The fear of nuclear war has seemed to subsided in recent years. It has become a case of out of sight, out of mind. The thing is, it hasn’t gone away and its potential to destroy us slowly looms. Every now and again we need a film to remind us of real horror, Aftermath is that film. Aftermath begins not with a bang, but with a flash. A backpacker who is traveling down the road sees it and helps a woman (Jessie Rusu) and a child (Kennon Kepper) take cover.

Coming off a successful festival run at Film4 FrightFest, we now have the trailer for the latest apocalyptic tale of survival horror, Remnants, starring C.J. Thomason, Monica Keena, Edward Furlong, Andre Royo, Christine Kelly, and Jessie Rusu.
Peter Engert directs.
Synopsis
World War III has happened, and the USA is in meltdown. Nine strangers find themselves holed up together in a farmhouse cellar in rural Texas. Young Dr. Hunter survived the nuclear attack and is thrown together by chance with a group of wounded and frightened victims. Hunter and his slowly dying companions wait for news from the government while fending off hunger, claustrophobia, conflicting personalities, radiation sickness, and hordes of terrified, dying refugees as they attempt to endure the devastating holocaust. This is Peter Engert’s haunting, moving, and remarkably assured chronicle of final catastrophe.

Mother's Day Directed by: Darren Lynn Bousman Written by: Scott Milam Starring: Rebecca De Mornay, Jaime King, Frank Grillo, Deborah Ann Woll, Briana Evigan, Shawn Ashmore In honor of Mother’s Day, here’s my review of the aptly titled horror flick Mother’s Day. Looking for the perfect film to watch with mom this weekend? I assure you, this is not it. Well, unless your mom is like me, and seeks out any depraved movie she can get her hands on. In that case, Mother’s Day is perfect. It made its debut at Fantastic Fest 2010 in Austin, Texas, and there was plenty of buzz around it. With Darren Lynn Bousman (the Saw franchise, Repo! The Genetic Opera) at the helm, I was anxious to see this project. Unfortunately, I was unable to get into the midnight screening. The fact that I got to casually chat with Bousman before...

Saw II, III, and IV mastermind Darren Lynn Bousman turned his talents to a horror remake post-icky torture porn delights with his take on the Troma classic Mother’s Day. A spin on Charles Kaufman and Warren Leight’s 1980 film of the same name, Bousman moves the action of his film out of the woods (boo!) and into suburbia (further boos!), though he appears to hew to the original idea of three bad brothers bent on impressing their sicko mom with lots of blood and torture and crime. Hey, every family is different! Bousman’s film stars Rebecca De Mornay as dear sweet Mother (going back to her Hand That Rocks the Cradle creepy best), with Patrick Flueger, Warren Kole, and Matt O’Leary as her evil spawn. The three younger Koffins rob a bank, go to hide out in their family home, only to find that Mother lost it to foreclosure. That...

His newest film, 11-11-11, is coming out this weekend so naturally we've been wondering when, if ever, we'd be seeing Darren Bousman's previous effort, a loose remake of Mother's Day, released here in the States (the UK got it last month on DVD and Blu-ray). Finally the news has come that Anchor Bay Films has acquired North American distribution rights to Mother’s Day. Hallelujah!
Per Deadline the film has been in the can for a while, but a deal with distributor Gigapix that would have put the film into theaters fell through. Now Anchor Bay is looking at a potential release for next Mother’s Day, which falls on May 13, 2012.
“With Saw’s Darren Lynn Bousman at the helm and a cast featuring [Rebecca] De Mornay, [Shwan] Ashmore and [Deborah Ann] Woll, Mother’s Day has an unbeatable horror pedigree,” said Kevin Kasha, Anchor Bay executive vp of acquisitions and co-productions.

September 23rd, the first day of Fantastic Fest 2010, is already just a memory, which is why it's good that we've gotten ahold of a few photos from the opening night festivities. In addition, the Dread Central team on the scene, Scott & Tabby Johnson and Clint & Heather McCrocklin, have already posted two new reviews from the fest, both of which are extremely positive.
Fantastic Fest Kickoff
It was an epic kickoff to Fantastic Fest at The Paramount Theatre last night. This year Fantastic Fest is spotlighting the incredible genre films of Norway, and after last night's Viking war dance/karaoke concert, we hope they allow us to do it again some time in the future! Fantastic Fest founder Tim League ripped off a Velcro suit to reveal not-so-modest Viking battle gear. He was joined on stage by Fantastic Fest staff and special guest Eugenio Mira, whose film Agnosia is playing at the fest.
