The feature debut of ultra-low-budget horror auteur J.R. Bookwalter, this fast-paced zombie mini-epic is very likely the most expensive movie ever shot on Super-8 film. Playing with the long-established mythos of George A. Romero’s Living Dead trilogy, The Dead Next Door was produced with the help of many of the Evil Dead crew: financial backer Sam Raimi is credited as “Master Cylinder” and one of the characters is named after him; Evil Dead co-writer Scott Spiegel plays a role; and some character voices are dubbed by Bruce Campbell. The story centers on the members of the “Zombie Squad” — an assault team trained in the hunting and extermination of the living dead — and their mission to track down the scientists who developed a zombie-making virus and find the rumored antidote. Of the many lethal obstacles in their path, the deadliest comes in the form of a religious cult whose leader sees the zombie epidemic as a precursor of Armageddon — and is hell-bent on expediting it. Very stylish for what is essentially an epic-scale home movie (and gushing with plentiful home-style gore effects), this remains Bookwalter’s best effort and contains numerous witty homages to the Romero films which inspired it. ~ Cavett Binion, All Movie Guide.<br><br> Full-frame presentation (1.33:1), Audio commentary with writer/director J.R.

Eight medical students on a ski trip to Norway discover that Hitler’s horrors live on when they come face to face with a battalion of undead Nazi soldiers intent on devouring anyone unfortunate enough to wander into the remote mountains where they were once sent to die. It’s Easter vacation, and what better way to spend the break than skiing down the isolated hills just outside of Oksfjord, Norway? After packing their cars with enough beer and ski equipment to ensure that a good time will be had by all, the students set out for their destination and prepare for a relaxing snowbound getaway. Shortly after arriving at their remote cabin, however, the students receive an unexpected visit from a rather suspicious hiker. According to their shady visitor, the Nazis occupied this territory during World War II. In the aftermath of their brutal raping and pillaging, the locals revolted, driving the few surviving Nazi soldiers – including their iron-fisted leader, Colonel Herzog – deep into the hills. Neither the soldiers nor their leader were ever seen again. Everyone in town assumed that they simply froze to death. But there’s something stirring out there in the trees, and it won’t be long until the unsuspecting students discover how the story really ends.<br><br> Featurettes, Trailers, Outtakes.<br><br> Norwegian Language Film with English Subtitles and Dubbed English Language Track; “Behind ‘Dead Snow’”; “Special Make-up Effects Of ‘Dead Snow’”; “Madness In The North” – Making-of Featurette; “Madness In The West!” – Cast and Crew fly to Sundance Film Festival for Premiere; “Burning The Cabin”; “The Sounds Of ‘Dead Snow’”; VFX.

Declared “my most personal film” by Italy’s premier horror director Dario Argento, this production marked the director’s return to the eerie thematic territory he pioneered in 1977 with the horror classic Suspiria. Much like that film, Phenomena conforms to the logic of nightmares. Jennifer Connelly stars as Jennifer Corvino, the daughter of an American film star, who enrolls in a prestigious Swiss boarding school under the tutelage of the prudish Mrs. Bruckner (played by frequent Argento collaborator and former beau Daria Nicolodi). Possessing a unique telepathic gift, Jennifer is capable of communicating with insects on an instinctive level, often while sleepwalking. This trait soon brands her a “freak” among her snooty classmates but makes her a valuable asset to entomologist Dr. MacGregor (Donald Pleasence), who is currently employing the innate forensic skills of insects to aid police in tracking a serial killer targeting the boarders at Jennifer’s school. As Jennifer’s tiny friends (including the corpse-hunting Sarcophagus Fly) guide her closer to the murderer’s lair, everything from MacGregor’s revenge-driven pet chimpanzee to Bruckner’s monstrously disfigured son figure into the mix, providing not one but three shocking endings. Shot in English and re-dubbed for various European markets, this graphic thriller was released in drastically edited form as Creepers in the U.S. and England; Argento’s original cut runs 110 minutes. ~ Cavett Binion, All Movie Guide.<br><br> cc, Audio commentary with writer/director Dario Argento, special make-up effects artist Sergio Stivaletti, music composer Claudio Simonetti and journalist Loris Curci, A Dark Fairy Tale, Luigi Cozzi & the Art of Macrophotography, Dario Argento on the Joe Franklin Show, Claudio Simonetti Music Video Jennifer, Bill Wyman music video Valley, Trailer, Dario Argento bio.
