George A. Romero Tells Tales of Terror in this Deadtime Stories Trailer

What is more scary than director George A. Romero telling you: "don't be afraid, be very afraid?" This master of horror and full time zombie director is presenting three tales of the macabre. Each story is thirty minutes long and the plotlines of the shorts range from cannibalism to extraterrestrial cures and even to haunted class rooms. All together they form the Deadtime Stories, with each story written by Jeff Monahan (The Screening). Romero releases terror on the world July 12th and fans of indie horror can check out the full trailer for Deadtime Stories below.

The plot points for Deadtime Stories are here:

"`On Sabbath Hill` is a ghost story about a professor who is a stickler for student attendance. When his wandering eye causes a female student to kill herself, her ghost continues to come to class.

'Dust' tells the story of a security guard at a laboratory who steals Mars dust to cure his cancer-ridden wife. It works, but with some unintended side effects.

'The Gorge:' When Donna accompanies her fiance, Gary, and his best friend, Craig, on a morning caving expedition, she expects a fun hike, a few laughs, and maybe some kisses in the dark. But a sudden cave-in leaves them trapped with no way out. Gary's leg has been crushed, and as the days go by, gangrene sets in. With everyone starving, Craig suggests that when they cut off the leg, maybe they should take just an extra few inches. Will it be enough to feed all of them? And how far will three people go to survive?" (Dread).
