Several Noteworthy Horror Releases on DVD and Blu-Ray the Week of November 30th

There are two notable horror films moving to DVD and Blu-Ray this week and one other, which is mostly known for softening the horror genre. Joshua Grannell's debut film, All About Evil releases today and this is an independent film, with many well known actors participating. Thomas Dekker will star with Natasha Lyonne and Cassandra Peterson aka Elvira. The film puts real life murders on the screen for fans to watch, until they are the next to die! Moving on to Shadowland, which is the first time this film has been seen by 28DLA, readers will find an independent and creative take on the vampire myth. Vampire hunter faces vampire in this production from Pirate Pictures. The last is The Twilight Saga: Eclipse - which releases later in the week (December 4th). More details on two of these films are below.

The synopsis for All About Evil is here:

"The story centers around a mousy librarian, who has inherited her father's beloved but failing old movie house. In order to save the family business she discovers her inner serial killer - and a legion of rabid gore fans - when she starts turning out a series of grisly shorts. What her fans don't realize yet is that the murders in the movies are all too real" (UHM).

Director/writer: Joshua Grannell.

Cast: Natasha Lyonne, Thomas Dekker, Cassandra Peterson, Mink Stole, Noah Segan, and Jack Donner.

Shadowland

The film's synopsis:

"A thrilling new vision of classic vampire lore, Shadowland opens in modern day North America, where construction workers uncover an old stone cross and a mysterious wooden stake. They remove the artifacts from the ground, allowing Laura (Caitlin McIntosh), a beautiful vampire, to awaken from a century of slumber.

As Laura attempts to make sense of the strange new world around her, she begins to remember her human life and a mysterious lover (Carlos Antonio León) with secrets of his own. Soon a dangerous vampire hunter (Jason Contini) begins tracking Laura, but as he closes in for the kill he learns that things may not be what they seem" (UHM).

Director/writer: Wyatt Weed.

Cast: Caitlin McIntosh, Jason Contini, Carlos Antonio Leon, Dale D. Moore and Don McLendon.
