In the early part of the 2010s, American studio The Asylum became both well-known and reviled for their ability to churn out a slew of incredibly cheesy, CGI-driven creature feature spectacles and ripoffs of mainstream properties, with titles ranging from “Sharknado,” “Transmorphers,” and “Zoombies” to name just a few of the company’s output. While the studio still exists in delivering cheesy ripoffs and mock-ups of blockbuster releases, very few are aware of the current output afforded by Chinese production studios filling the niche gap of cheesy creature features and genre output. Not the first of their releases but among the first to get exported to the West is Yue Ang Wang’s mash-up of “Deep Blue Sea” and “Jaws 3D” known by various titles but delivered in a dubbed version called “Blood Bite.”

It had to happen didn’t it. First we had Zombeavers, then Zoombies and its sequel and now the zombie plague hits sea life with Aquarium of the Dead – the latest undead horror from The Asylum. Of course, given this an Asylum release, the timing couldn’t be more perfect – after all once you’ve seen an Army of the Dead you’re going to want to see an aquarium full of them too right?!

"Something is up with the animals." The Asylum has just released an official trailer for one of their latest ridiculous B-movie horrors called Aquarium of the Dead, which is arriving direct-to-dvd (because that's the right release for this) in May this year. This is actually a sort-of-sequel to director Glenn Miller's other Asylum zombie animal movies Zoombies and Zoombies 2. Surprise – there is not much of a plot here: a scientific accident causes creatures to become zombies. But I'd rather enjoy this as a revenge tale for all the sea animals captured and thrown into aquariums finally getting back at the asshole humans who put them there. The cast includes Vivica A. Fox, D.C. Douglas, Erica Duke, Eva Ceja, Anthony Jensen, Anna Telfer, Jeffery Thomas Johnson, and Rishi Arya. This has zombie sharks, octopus, crabs, fish, and oh yes, a zombie walrus (finally vengeance for Tusk!) and starfish, too. Whatever you do,...

Who would have thought that The Asylum’s seemingly quick cash-in on the hype around Zombeavers, Zoombies, would actually get a sequel. Well it has… and it turns out its a damn good one too. Oh and it also turns out this “sequel” is anything but. In fact Zoombies 2 leads directly into the events of the first film!
Zoombies 2 follows a group of poachers who, in the midst of being arrested by a park ranger, end up in the middle of a zombie animal attack in a wildlife consevation preserve! However instead of arresting the poachers, the ranger ends up saving them and eventually forges an uneasy alliance wth the group in order to...

I just finished watching It Watches, an independent horror/thriller movie which is coming VOD shortly, and I have got to say it has been a while since a movie completely pulled the rug out from under me like this film did! Honestly, I’ve seen enough movies to think I am always one step ahead of the film I’m watching, and for the most part I am, but I have to say this one outsmarted me. Which makes me very Very happy.
To director Dave Parker (The Hills Run Red) I tip my cap. First of all because I am getting tired of the found footage format. It feels like every horror movie these days has got to have that found footage/CCTV feel to it. However this...
