In today's horror highlights: Syfy moves forward with a TV series based on George A. Romero's Day of the Dead, we have a trailer and details on the latest release from Kardiac, and Jessica Cameron provides us with details on the premiere of her latest film:

Day of the Dead TV Series at Syfy:

According to Deadline, Syfy has given "10-episode straight-to series" order for a Day of the Dead TV series:

"Written by Jed Elinoff and Scott Thomas, who also will showrun, Day of the Dead is the intense story of six strangers trying to survive the first 24 hours of an undead invasion. This ode to Romero’s famous flesh-eaters reminds us that sometimes all it takes to bring people together is a horde of hungry zombies trying to rip them apart."

The series is being produced by Cartel Entertainment (who also produced Creepshow) and will on Syfy...

Horror film darling and scream queen Jessica Cameron returns for her third time in the director’s chair with A Bad Place, a chilling vision: the story of another place, another time, where three female strangers must evade a shadowy force and their own grim pasts, as they try to find a way beyond a nightmare world that exists in a foggy edge of reality. Florence, Molly, and Collette are trapped in a world they couldn’t possibly have imagined…all running from events that happened in their lives; each forced to confront the unthinkable.

A Bad Place stars Ali Ferda, Heather Dorff, Johanna McGinley, Jim Foreman, Dylan Cinti and introduces Bella Mortensen. Cameron has always believed in producing horror films that empower female characters, and A Bad Place is a perfect addition to her repertoire as an artist. And, just like her previous films, she always provides the audience...

Stars: Brittany Belland, Tiffany Arnold, Riana Ballo, Jason Jay Crabtree, Jessica Cameron, John Bloom, Ali Ferda, Luke Frost, Paul Moon | Written and Directed by Justin Russell

As a collector of VHS, The Sleeper was one of those films that has been on my radar for quite some time. The film was released in a VHS/DVD big box combo set by producers Gamma Knife Films back in early 2012 – I didn’t pick up that version sadly, but I did grab a copy of The Sleeper when it finally came to DVD here in Blighty back in 2013. Cut to 2018 and the film has received the Blu-ray upgrade treatment courtesy of Scream Team Releasing!

At first glance The Sleeper is very reminiscent of Ti West’s House of the Devil – especially given the retro look and feel which echoes West’s stylistic choices on his breakout flick – however this film focuses on...

A few more details are coming in for Ryan M. Andrews' (Black Eve, 2010) Lilith. The film has an updated poster (shown here). As well, Lilith is now in post-production, with a release date coming soon. The film is described as a hitchhike horror film. Produced by Mem Ferda (Bonehill Road) and starring Jessica Cameron, this feature promises blood on the highway as a storm demon dusts things up. Lilith also stars: Tristan Risk (Harvest Lake, 2016), Carlo Mendez (Mania), Ryan Kiser (House of Manson) and Ali Ferda. Another preview, for Lilith, is hosted here. The film's central antagonist has many powers. This demon can summon: disease, storms and death. Travellers Heidi (Cameron) and Steve cross this entity, in their recreational vehicle. They hope to rekindle their romance. But, their supernatural encounter sets them on a collision course with Hell. Mem Ferda and actress Jessica Cameron have worked on several films,...

Roar Uthaug’s The Wave crashes on the shores of Blu-ray, DVD, and Digital HD on June 21st. Also in this round-up: production details on Jessica Cameron’s An Ending, release details for Sacrifice and The Divine Tragedies, and Kickstarter launch details for Night Wolf.

The Wave: “Nestled in Norway’s Sunnmøre region, Geiranger is one of the most spectacular tourist draws on the planet. With the mountain Åkerneset overlooking the village — and constantly threatening to collapse into the fjord — it is also a place where cataclysm could strike at any moment. After putting in several years at Geiranger’s warning centre, geologist Kristian (Kristoffer Joner) is moving on to a prestigious gig with an oil company. But the very day he’s about to drive his family to their new life in the city, Kristian senses something isn’t right. The substrata are shifting. No one wants to believe...

Scream Queen Jessica Cameron has just announced that her latest project – which she describes as her “first artistic horror adventure”, An Ending, which she will produce and co-direct with screenwriter Josh Chiara, begins shooting at the end of April. To accompany the announcement Cameron has release this fantastic – and rather suggestive (or am I reading to much into That shape in the background?) – poster art, by Maxwell Jacques Leclere. Check it our below…

Cameron will also star in the film as Florence, a woman who wakes up in a nightmare world after being rushed to a hospital for unknown reasons. An Ending also stars Heather Dorff as Collette, a woman who has been in the nightmare world much longer than Florence, and Ali Ferda as Molly, a woman coming to terms with crushing guilt. As the three women are stalked through the corridors of the nightmare world by something lurking in the shadows,...

Next on the chopping block for Jessica Cameron is the project An Ending. Cameron will produce, co-direct (with screenwriter Josh Chiara) and act in the film.

Get all the official details below and check out first poster which is wonderfully illustrated by Maxwell Jacques Leclerc and certainly offers up a lot of feminine empowerment. Oh how I love art.

“The Sleeper” (2012)

Directed By: Justin Russell

Written By: Justin Russell

Starring: Brittany Belland (Amy), E. Ray Goodwin (Det. Drake), Jason Ray Crabtree (The Sleeper), Elizabeth Lane (June), Jenna Fournier (Laura), Riana Ballo (Stacy), Jessica Cameron (Cindy), Tiffany Arnold (Rebecca), Ali Ferda (Ava), Kendra Stevenson (First Sister), Beverly Kristy (Miss Joy), Paul Moon (Bobby), Eric Sarich (Derek), Aaron Russell (Matt Matheson), John Bloom (Dr. Briggs)

I am an avid fan of slasher films as that is one of the first sub genres of horror I got in to when I was younger. Sadly half the time more modern ones do not do a thing for me. I had never heard of “The Sleeper” until I was looking through posts about best slasher films of the 21st century and decided to give this one a try when I saw it was an early 1980s throwback. I am glad I did!

The film was released in a VHS/DVD big box combo set by producers Gamma Knife Films back in early 2012 – I didn’t pick up that version as I was holding out for a UK release, which never came. However cut to 18 months later and The Sleeper finally comes to DVD here in Blighty thanks to Safecracker Pictures, one of the UK’s most interesting DVD labels, who specialise in releasing independent movies that other, more mainstream, companies wouldn’t (frankly) touch with a bargepole.

*here be minor spoilers. Director/writer: Justin Russell. Cast: Brittany Belland, Tiffany Arnold, Riana Ballo, John Bloom, Jessica Cameron, Jason Jay Crabtree, and Ali Ferda. There have been many films in the past that involve serial killers and sororities. From Black Christmas (1974) to The House on Sorority Row (1983) and even to The Sorority House Massacre (1986), there are sorority sisters living in fear of a nameless killer. Justin Russell's debut is reminiscent of all of these. However, The Sleeper is most similar to When a Stranger Calls (1979). You just never know were the killer is in these films. That killer brandishes a smallish looking claw hammer. He babbles into his rotary phone of "girls" and "coming to get you." The girls at the sorority house, to whom he is talking, take little interest. There is partying to do after all. Oblivious to his actions, the killer gets closer and closer to the sorority house.
