Dead Snow follows a group of students on a snow trip. Everything is going smoothly until a hiker shows up at their cabin door telling them stories about how this snowy mountain side was a occupied by the Nazis in World War II. The townspeople eventually revolted against their horrible oppressors and drove Cololnel Herzog (above) and his minions into the high mountains. Supposedly they froze to death. But many years later, when the youngins show up with their sexin' and drinkin' ,it brings the remaining Nazis back to life. Seriously, that has to be one hell of some serious partying these kids were up to.

Here are two clips from the movie.

Gettin' Busy Where The Business Is Done:

Sigh, no one does magazine covers like this anymore. Evy Kasseth Røsten, Charlotte Frogner and Jenny Skavlan look amazing, and this movie will do amazing at Sundance mark my words. Check out the latest trailer and learn how to slaughter an attacking group of undead jerks.

Speaking of Sundance, I'm also incredibly interested in Paul Solet's film Grace, which will also be premiering at the snowy festival. Solet worked very closely with Eli Roth and is known for his work on Means To An End. Grace is about a mother who loses her baby in the womb but decides to carry it to term. After the delivery, the baby comes back to life - but now has an insatiable thirst for blood. Poster from /Film.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Quiet Earth pointed out the amazing trailer to a movie that looks like "The Descent meets The Hills Have Eyes" (the latter of which apparently inspired the director). A couple goes on their honeymoon but ends up having to fight some nasty beasties in the woods. The trailer is a trip, especially when the hubby kills a creature, rips off it's face, and then wears it. It' directed Lola Wallace and according to QE it was shot in a mere 5 days with no script.

Official Synopsis of The Trek:

When Keith and Kim Russell head into the mountains on an adventure packed honeymoon, they find much more action than they were expecting. When the newlyweds stumble upon a pair of cave dwelling savages, their romantic getaway quickly becomes a tragic nightmare as each couple tests the limits of how far they are willing to go in order to protect the ones that they love.

What if your best friend was a zombie? Would you be brave enough to hold an intervention? News about George's Intervention circulated in October, but I missed the trailer. From the looks of it, the little B film could be pretty funny. The comedic timing is pretty spot on and the gore looks pretty fantastic, but the trailer is NSFW so beware. George's Intervention is set to release in 2009.

Here's the official synopsis:

George's friends have gathered for an intervention... George's intervention. You see, George is a zombie. And his friends are hoping to convince him to stop eating people. Plus, it's unhealthy. The meat is raw. And who knows where these people have been.

With the help of a professional interventionist George's friends confront George regarding his "addiction." But over the course of the night his friends begin to disappear. Have they given up hope that George's Intervention will be successful? Or have they become dinner?

The first clip is Automated Assets written by James Dastoli and Robert Datoli. That's the full adorable robot short where you get to see the silver faces of the customer service industry.

Lone:
Lone is so adorable, it could almost be a live action Wall-E origins short. The flick shows at the Imagine Festival and was directed by Andrew Nowrojee principle photography was by Stefan Duscio. The short follows what is seemingly the last man on Earth and his desire to build a new friend.

Transgressions:
Far and away my favorite short of the Imagine Festival, this 15 minute journey into our future shows the severe consequences that we'll all have to face even for merely scratching another persons car.

Apollo 10.5
According to this shoft, before we sent men to the moon, NASA sent a 6-year old boy into space just to check it out. Directed and written by Lance Gambis (and starring his son), it's a sweet little tale about launching kids into outer space.

Dod Sno:
Fresh off the internet is the Norwegian horror film Dod Sno where the Nazi undead attack a poor group of unsuspecting teens on a snowy holiday.
