Kiss From Calcutta is a thirty-two minute short from director Christopher Drews and writer Jacob Gentry. A darkly themed film Kiss is suspenseful, but also frustrating as some of the film is left unexplained, all the way to the end. The excellent visual imagery and an interesting story make the film recommendable, but a little more time could have been spent developing the characters, and storyline.

Director Stephen Hadden just dropped us a line to let us know his grisly post-apocalyptic themed horror film Bio-dead will have its world premiere via nationwide video-on-demand on Thursday August 6, 2009 through Time Warner, Bright House and Charter digital cable providers.
Synopsis:
Set in the not-too-distant future, “Bio-dead” takes place during the aftermath of a bioterrorist attack that has killed twelve million people and rendered Southern California uninhabitable. The once thriving mecca has now become a contaminated wasteland known as “The Zone”. Hazmat teams are dispatched into “The Zone” to search for survivors and document all casualties.
When a lone hazmat team enters a seemingly abandoned building after dark, the men begin to experience terrifying hallucinations and soon realize that they are not alone. Trapped inside the compound with no escape, the terrified team finds themselves locked in a struggle for survival against a vicious predator… and each other.
