We are deep in summer, and here in the U.K, my rotted corpse has somehow survived the first heat-wave. Enjoying a week of respite but I have heard rumour a second heat-wave is approaching. At the time this post goes up, well, it may already be here! The Rotting Zombie HQ relies on blu-tac a lot, it is in a sorry state with so many posters having came down due to the heat drying out the tac! Even had glue melt off the shelving in my front room, causing the shelf to fall off the wall! Onwards to a trilogy of terror plucked from the very bottom of my bloody news sack.
Back in May, indie horror film Susurrus was released by Ten-Headed Skeleton, who also wrote, directed and produced it. The subject matter for this movie was the 'Backrooms', something that I have only recently become aware of, and have found it all a fascinating place for horror. The synopsis has a group of woman who all find themselves trapped in the endless backrooms, all having been transported there when walking through doorways. The press release mentions both Cube and The Twilight Zone episode 'Five Characters in Search of an Exit', so of course that sounded appealing. Susurrus is available to watch online now.
The final chapter in the Corn Zombies saga; Revenge of the Corn Zombies, currently has a crowd funding campaign running. This third film, taking place six years after the initial outbreak, has survivors hiding out in an abandoned sanatorium. Directed by Steve Hermann, with SFX makeup by Beth Metcalf and Marcus Koch, and coming from Acrostar Productions the crowd funding page can be found here.
Finally for today, Frank Palangi's Tubi horror anthology; At Death's Door is now crowdfunding on GoFundMe for a sequel. The original anthology was adapted from Christopher Pelton's short story collection - Toe in the Water, I'm guessing this sequel will also follow suite. Production on At Death's Door 2 has officially commenced, with the first segment already completed. Check out the campaign page, here.
