The Best on DVD & BluRay

Ejecta

Who’s in it?
Julian Richings, Lisa Houle, Adam Seybold

What’s it about?
“EJECTA is the story of two men who witness an unexplainable event in the atmosphere on the eve of a historic solar storm and must survive a terrifying life form that’s hunting them. An anonymous group will stop at nothing to unearth the truth behind what happened that night to the men and prove to the world that we were never alone in the universe.” – Foresight Pictures

Nate’s Two Cents?
I honestly didn’t finish watching the movie if that’s any indication of what I thought. It was a weird mix of this military group trying to torture the main antagonist, William Cassidy, in hopes of finding an alien craft, intertwined with footage of the night in question with Cassidy and the documentarian, Joe Sullivan. The movie was just not interesting enough to finish, so I would say don’t waste your time with this one.

Wyrmwood: Road of the Dead

Who’s in it?
Jay Gallagher, Bianca Bradey, Leon Burchill

What’s this thing about?
“Zombies invade the Australian Outback in this brain-splattered, Mad Max-meets-the-undead thrill ride. When an apocalyptic event turns everyone around him-including his wife and daughter-into marauding zombies, everyman mechanic Barry arms himself to the teeth, soups up his car, and hits the road in order to rescue his sister from a deranged, disco-dancing mad doctor. Bursting with high-octane car chases, crazy-cool homemade weaponry, and enough blood-and-guts gore to satisfy hardcore horror fans, WYRMWOOD: ROAD OF THE DEAD takes the zombie flick to bone-crunchingly berserk new heights.” – IFC Midnight

Nate’s Two Cents?
I randomly picked this movie up the day it came out because it just sounded awesome. Plus it was a Scream Factory release and they always have pretty solid releases. The movie is really fun and just a nice refreshing take on the zombie flick. Make yourself a bag of popcorn and prepare for all the guts and glory!
