Earlier today I posted the most exciting things of 2010 and one of them was the theatrical reissue of ‘The Evil Dead’. Below is all the information from Grindhouse and the release dates and theaters. Enjoy

From Grindhouse Releasing:

Landmark Theatres will present the director’s 35mm print of EVIL DEAD at special midnight shows in Minneapolis, Denver, Seattle, New York, Houston, Dallas, and Los Angeles in the first quarter of 2010.

Grindhouse Releasing has created a new full-color movie poster for the theatrical reissue of the 1981 horror classic. Designed by Tad Leger, the collectible one-sheet features rare photos from the original EVIL DEAD movie poster shoot by Mike Ditz.

“We’ve had tremendous response to our announcement that EVIL DEAD has returned,” says David Szulkin, head of theatrical bookings for Grindhouse Releasing. “We want to show it in as many cities as we can, and encourage fans to contact us and petition their local theater to screen the movie.”

Endorsed by Raimi, producer Rob Tapert, and star/co-producer Bruce Campbell, Grindhouse Releasing’s reissue of EVIL DEAD will hit theaters across North America in the coming year.

More cities will be announced as they are confirmed. The first dates and venues are as follows:

The year starts off fast with horror. We here at for the dead travel fast are very excited about this and below are the top things we look forward to this year.

1. Daybreakers
   It’s about time we get a real vampire movie, with all the twilights and vampire apprentices out there we couldn’t be happier with Daybreakers. In this film, Ethan Hawke plays a vampire scientist in a world overpopulated by flesh hungry vampires.
2. Legion
   This movie just looks plain awesome. Legion is an Old Testament. A more wrathful God sends the Army of Heaven to protect a waitress in a small-town diner. We couldn’t be more excited to see this. Expect more information on the movie section soon.
3. Re-imagining of Nightmare on Elm Street
   With less than satisfactory remakes such as Halloween, and Friday the 13th, should we really remake this classic? Regardless of the past failures its still going to happen. This looks different although the original Freddy, Jackie Earle Haley, isn’t going to be in this one the film is appearing to give us a much deeper look at the mind of Evil. Be prepared to enjoy this remake, excuse me I mean re-imagining.
4. Priest
   Cam Gigandet and Stephen Moyer are joining up with Paul Bettany’s warrior monk in the summer film Priest. The film is loosely based on the Korean comic about a clergyman who hunts vampires.
   
5. The return of  The Evil Dead
   This is it, Sam Raimi’s film The Evil dead will be released in selected cities starting January 8th. Later today there will be a post with the dates and cities released.

There are too many awesome things to list but these are just a few. We will keep you informed with a wealth of other news soon. Keep coming back for more information and a few giveaways very soon.

This short film is a demo scene from the book The Talisman written by Stephen King and Peter Straub. Mathieu Ratthe is a very talented film maker and this demo scene really proves it. I would have to say this is one of the most well done and entertaining short films I’ve ever seen.

With the success of the hugely popular cult film Zombieland there are talks of making a part 2 in 3-D. According to a story on Variety, Sony is in the process of signing on all the old cast for a sequel. Variety has reported Sony has already locked down the original producer and director and are currently talking with the cast.

Zombieland was one of the raddest movies I’ve seen all year, but i’m not sure how good a sequel will be. Despite all that I’m still actually excited to see where this goes. What are your thoughts on a sequel?

This is a film made by M.V.B Productions. Delusions is about  A young lady who is experiencing paranoia. She see things before it happens, she’s lives in denial of her fate or is it ?

The film is a pretty interesting and scary short film.  Check it out and rate it and let us know what you think.

With the announcement of the graphic adaption of Stephen Kings N it appears that Stephen King is on top of the world. Marvel has announced it will be adapting the short story N, from the Just After Sunset collection of short stories, into a 4 part graphic novel. It will begin circulation in March of 2010.

1. Drag Me To Hell
A loan officer fighting for a promotion at her job decides to deny a very desperate elderly woman an extension on her mortgage and all hell breaks lose. The elderly woman curses her to hell. A highly entertaining and original film. Director Sam Raimi goes old school with a compilation of what he does best in horror films.

2. Paranormal Activity
Compared to the Blair Witch Project Paranormal Activity was a complete shock. The movie presents a new cute couple living in a starter home. They experience noises and decide to film it. They soon experience terrifying results. Seeing this movie in theaters is the only way to live the real horror. This is the most terrifying movie I’ve seen in years.

3. Trick R Treat
This movie had been floating around for a very long time and eventually went straight to DVD. The movie was full of several short stories all running together to produce a very scary film. The acting and stories are all amazing. This one had to make it to the top.

4. Zombieland
Who would have thought this movie would have been as successful as it was. The hit exhibits a group of survivors of the zombie apocalypse heading across the country each in a different destination. This movie was perfect. The movie was hilarious but at the same time left for some actual terrifying moments.

5. The Collector
The Collector starts and never looks back. This 88 minute film plays like a short film. The hero is actually a criminal, a gentle criminal but hey aren’t they all. This movie wasn’t marketed much at all but was a real genuinely original horror film.

This was a video shot by a few kids. Is this really proof that ghosts exist or is it another hoax?

It’s 3 in the morning and I’m sitting here watching Diary Of The Dead. I must say George Romero and more so Zombie films in general still have “IT”. It isn’t just one thing. They have several factors that make “IT”. They still after all of these years have the ability to scare the “hell” out of us.

When There is No More Room In Hell The Dead Will Walk The Earth

Zombie films have an ability to make people scared. Unlike other horror films Zombie films give you that what if feeling. The feeling that all of this is just a second away from happening… or even worse, it already is happening. They unlike any other horror film reflect society in a very clever introspective way and that I believe makes everything that much more real and scary

Looking In The Mirror

Romero loves to point out society and its good and bad characteristics in his films. In Night of The Living Dead Romero focuses on the racism and patriarchy all over America. In Dawn of the Dead Romero focused more on Consumerism and Capitalism. Romero isn’t the only writer and director who focues on including these reflections into zombie films. its been a common practice among films lately.

Don’t Be Afraid To Run

Zombies are real people. This is what makes it that much more horrifying. Zombies don’t eat flesh out of an evil animosity towards the living but out of an innate hunger. The zombies try to continue on their roles by doing it is they were used to doing all the time. It is what draws us to the zombie film.

All I know for sure is Zombies are scary as hell.
