The Rotting Zombie's News Anthology for Thursday 27th July


Finally, there is a patch for PSVR2 horror game Switchback VR. That game was released earlier in the year in a most unsightly state. Namely, it had some atrociously ugly graphics. The update has cleaned it all right up so it actually looks good now, and that has made it much more fun to play.

Troma are celebrating its fifty year anniversary by releasing a new 4K restoration of The Toxic Avenger series. This eight disc ToxSet is coming to 4K Ultra HD and Special Edition Blu-ray on 29th August and includes all four Toxic Avenger films in their unrated director's cut versions, as well as a whole heap of extras.

Freestyle Digital Media have acquired French language horror, The Thing Behind the Door. This tells the story of a woman who is haunted by the death of her husband in the first world war. She turns to black magic as a means to bring him back, but instead something unspeakable appears. This is due for an August release on North American VOD platforms and DVD.


My final story for today, the Aaron Mento (Ugly Sweater Party) written and directed 16 BITS is now on Tubi TV. This follows the plot of an Adventure Time episode in that a guy befriends a street fighter character who has somehow managed to escape the video game he was in.
