The Rotting Zombie's News Anthology for Thursday 8th February 2024


I really didn't get much into my news sack during my last monthly news post. To make very slight amends, here is a trio of news stories that will hopefully be interesting to read. I'm due to go out to a work night out later today (at the time of typing), as a die-hard introvert I'm really not looking forward to it!

Horny Teenagers Must Die! released on VOD on January 5th from Lion Heart Distribution. This horror has managed to pick up twenty three awards on the film festival circuit. Described as a throwback to classic teen slashers with a modern twist, this is about a group of high schoolers who go on vacation to a remote woodland cabin and inevitably end up the target of a masked maniac. This was written, directed and produced by David Zagorski (Killing Brooke), and stars Matthew Marcus (Abaddon's Pit), Chhoyang Cheshatsang (Hocus Pocus 2), Alicia McNeill and more.

The February streaming line-up for horror streaming service Screambox has been announced. 3-Headed Shark Attack arrived on February 2nd, this creature feature stars the iconic Danny Trejo as well as WWE star Rob Van Dam. Also on that date was the arrival of season three of The Dead Hour, a horror anthology that features a different story in each of its twelve episodes.
The fun horror comedy Here For Blood arrives on February 9th, which is also when psychological thriller Waking Nightmare arrives.
Other notable releases includes mocumentary Everybody Dies by the End, found footages Bodom, and the China based Perfect Horror.

Finally for today, What Happened At 625 River Road received a VOD and DVD release in North America on January 12th via Freestyle Digital Media. This is a psychological thriller about two students who travel to the titular location where they find themselves at the centre of a series of enigmatic events where the line between reality and illusion is blurred. This was directed by Devon Jovi Johnson, who also co-wrote and co-produced this.
